Problem Solving – A Holistic Approach
With over 30 years of experience in the automotive and supplier industries, I've learned that the root causes of problems rarely lie in a single area. They're usually a series of smaller challenges that, when combined or linked together, can lead to a larger problem. Therefore, our analyses aren't limited to individual departments, but rather examine all areas of your company – from sales, engineering, production, and quality to delivery of the finished product.
-
Is the selling price and price calculation correct? Are all existing requirements taken into account? Are machine and tool costs calculated?
-
Is the engineering state of the art? Is the component designed in such a way that it can be mass-produced according to the requirements?
-
Do machines, systems and tools correspond to the state of the art, are they capable of producing the component with consistent quality?
-
Do the employees have the right qualifications and have they been trained sufficiently and in a timely manner?
-
Are quality controls installed in the process in such a way that defects in the finished product can be detected in a timely manner and, if possible, avoided?
-
Is the packaging designed and handling planned in such a way that the component can be transported to the customer undamaged?
