"This operation was non-competitive internally and externally in cost, quality, and delivery, and was on the verge of closing. Through redesign, they moved from a failing cost center to a viable profit center, realizing 100% improvements in quality and delivery, reducing costs from 15% above competition to 15% below the competition. They retrained an alienated workforce into multi-skilled work teams and reduced headcount by 15% with full support and involvement of employees and the local union. Today they compete head to head with any outside machine shop, earn high customer ratings and are looking for ways to get even better." -Corning, Inc., Mold Machine Shop in Charleroi, PA |
