About the Customer

The customer is a globally renowned manufacturer of electric motors and
their control

Testimonial from Сustomer

The customer was now able to work with the restructured production.
The customer’s quality goals and on-time deliveries increased production times,
which increased production capacity by 50% in the new year. By training a new Chinese production manager, the goal achieved was secured.

Situation (Challenge)

The customer no longer had any sensible production management due to the
departure of his senior management team from today to tomorrow.
Actually, the general manager took over the management,
which unfortunately did not solve the problems.



                

Solution (Achievement)

The customer engaged our manager for the implementation with the management of the production in the factory. Furthermore, two additional production lines were integrated in the factory and put into operation. The following measures have been implemented.

• Several new employees were recruited and trained.

Various conversion measures ensured success in production.

• Restructuring of the quality department and the service area ensured the quality and timely delivery of the motors produced.

• Purchase of warehousing systems now allow correct and clean storage of the manufactured and stored engines until shipment to the customer.

• Training of the service staff and the definition of shipping periods now ensure a timely dispatch of stored engines before regular inspection. This eliminates the need to perform expensive service routines at the factory. Which corresponds to a saving potential of 30%
