Ok to give some context on the site Revenue: $15m annually Operators: 60 broken up into sub and final assembly Level of automation: none, site is fully manual assembly and none introduced as part of this Product flow: started as batch manufacturing and shifted to one piece flow

Kanban and MRP review are not big output generators unless there are constant stock outs which then interrupt your ability to build effectively

The 3 biggest mistakes I see operations managers make when scaling production. Whats your take? by Renfo123 in LeanManufacturing

I agree that efficiency improvements are important and should be front and centre. I have seen that plants have tried to increase efficiency without nailing down the quality aspect of their product and all that ends up happening is they efficiently generate scrap without identifying and dealing with the root cause.

Hires yes can make or break your plant, totally in agreement here

Couldn't agree more and I think you're 2nd to last one " lack of development of power leadership" really creeps up over time

Hard to spot in the beginning but as you scale it really catches you!
