SLIM makes your business more effective and cost efficient.
SLIM provides an effective way to reduce operational waste, save time and costs and utilize valuable resources to capacity.
SLIM methodology addresses the following types of waste:
- Transportation
- Inventory
- Motion
- Waiting (Time in queue)
- Overproduction
- Overprocessing
- Defects (Scrap, rework and inspection)
- Lost opportunity
SLIM enterprise extends this concept through the entire value stream or supply chain: A highly optimized factory cannot achieve its full potential if it has to work with non-SLIM customers, suppliers, subcontractors, administration and infrastructure.
Secora will teach employees and managers alike to identify waste and non value added activities. The Secora SLIM methodologies include traditional tools such as Value Stream Mapping which make waste visible to all process stakeholders, highlighting problems such as bottlenecks, inventories and hidden factories.
Whether in an industrial or transactional environment, Secora consultants will get their hands dirty working with the people who actually do the job. Only this way can the real facts be gathered and the correct improvement steps implemented. Through multi-level practical involvement, Secora enables and encourages employees to continuously improve their business processes.
