Business Automation Solution Sample

Description of the problems:

1. The company entered a spiral downhill mode with an increasing overhead while the gross revenues remaining constant; thus, shrinking profits.

2. High finished product rejects (6%).

3. Very strong international competition.  New international manufacturers competing for the same market.

Solutions to the problems:

1. Consolidation and restructuring of the USA East Coast operation into the state of North Carolina which is in the middle of the East Coast with lower real estate, utilities, and labor cost yielding $5,000,000 in savings per year for the same output in finished goods.

2. Re-engineering of the company structure: re-defining responsibilities and reducing staffing coupled with the implementation of Unit Cell Manufacturing concepts.

3. Robotics automation: increasing the production throughput and reducing the number of skilled and semi-skilled workers and space.

4. Implementation of TQM (Total Quality Management) reducing rejections from 6% to 2% within 6 months.

5. Introducing full recycling transforming manufacturing byproducts to sellable solid waste.

6. Cross Training Implementation

7. An aggressive acquisition program to enter the existing retail business for the company's manufactured products.  In other words we created a chain of profit generating centers:

   1. Manufacturing

   2. Wholesaling

   3. Retailing

   4. Logistics and Transportation.
