Challenges for MINIT SLOVAKIA
Ambition to become the most effective firm in the V4 region
Lack of workforce in the region of Dunajská Streda
Year-on-year sales growth of more than 20% increases pressure and requirements on production and the entire company management setting
Preparation for a generational change in a family business
Ambition to become the most effective firm in the V4 region
A 9-month project involving key people at all management levels
Setting management tools for an effective management of company performance
“Company departments started co-operating much more intensively than ever before. A typical example is the collaboration between Sales and Production where even confrontational discussions from the past turned into common search for solutions.“
“In the past, we had to produce even 5 – 6 products on one machine a day. Thanks to sequencing, we now have all-day production for one product. This is also reflected in productivity.“
Benefit increase – labour productivity & throughput of production equipment
In M5, higher throughput was achieved by reducing the duration of redevelopments; efforts in improving labour productivity were mainly focused on centralizing replacers.
In M5, a throughput improvement of 4.1% (better by 1.8% than planned) was achieved, which is above project target.
Production throughput increase calculated via performed activities
In M5, the project resulted in saving 6.1 FTE (16.4 FTE in total), which is better than the required level of 13 FTE.
