Manufacturing.
Companies in the manufacturing industry are facing a range of different challenges. Proceeding globalisation and the EU’s expansion to the east has increased cost pressures for manufacturing companies in Germany. At the same time, global competition defined by ever-shortening product life cycles, technology independent developments and sinking customer loyalty, requires companies to be able to produce quickly, cost-effectively and in a customer-oriented way. Constant evaluation and adaptation of core processes for reasons of the reduction of development times and costs, decreases in production costs and the optimisation of the whole value-added chain thus becomes the company’s core area of expertise; Lischke Consulting aids their clients in the manufacturing sector in the sustainable optimisation of key processes along the whole value-added chain. The focal points of our experience include:
- Integration of life cycle costs into product development.
- Re-organisation of the product development processes aimed at achieving lower development costs and improved cross-functional co-operation.
- Optimisation of procurement management (strategy, organisation, methods).
- Conception and realisation of lead production principles with a focus on process control, teamwork, visualisation and load-balancing.
- Conception and realisation of excellence programmes in manufacturing (Toyota Prinzipien, Six Sigma, Kaizen) and development (Design for Six Sigma, QFD, FMEA, DFx).
