Presidents kaizen day 3- How do you know you’re on the right track with a solution? How are you going to measure and show impact from your efforts? As the 2024 President’s Kaizen continues into its third day, our seven global teams are pivoting towards a focus on the future state and making tomorrow better than today. A constant reminder that I’ve been sharing with our teams is that a successful kaizen event isn’t determined by the volume of work done, or the amount of data collected, but rather the outputs of the event that are realized and measured in the months and years that follow. It was great to spend the day with CFT in Parma, Italy, where a cross-functional team is looking at improves to how customer inquiries are tracked and resolved. With ambitious targets and significant variables at play, it was great to see this team come together to build solutions for this critical operation.

I had the opportunity to work with a sister company this week as part this year's President's Kaizen in Parma, Italy. It was a great week working with talented team members leveraging tools from our ATS Business Model (ABM) to make improvements within the business driving impacts to our employees, customers, and shareholders. It was a great week working with a diverse team. I enjoyed learning with the team gaining insights to processes that can help support the business. #ABM #PeopleProcessPerformance #continuousimprovement

An amazing example of 'moonshine kaizen' (credit to Mr. Chihiro Nakao in the Bob Emiliani book "Kaizen Forever" for that most excellent term!) on the shop floor to cut labels quickly & effectively! (Note: in production mode, an overturned box is placed over the blade to prevent any safety issues!) This simple idea significantly reduces cycle time & fluctuation in the standardized work of a team member, and was ZERO cost to implement. This great example comes from our very own True North Thinking Inc. team member Nicholas Azevedo on the floor supporting a customer in the #Windsor, #Ontario region. #toyotaproductionsystem #TPS #toyotaway #TnTkaizen #continuousimprovement #processimprovement #peopledevelopment #leadershipdevelopment #kaizen #PDCA

Kaizen event at AGCO Parts Distribution Center (PDC) in California Guilherme Einloft Pinto and I had the privilege of visiting AGCO's PDC and conducting training sessions with their dedicated team on 5S+1, the 8 Wastes, and a Kaizen event. It was inspiring to witness their commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence. During the Kaizen event, the team demonstrated remarkable efficiency. They sorted through and removed unnecessary items, implemented impactful visual management, and boosted their process and productivity by removing waste. The results were a 50% reduction in walking distance, demonstrating significant gains in workflow optimization. It's clear that AGCO's culture of innovation and teamwork is driving tangible improvements. I'm thrilled to have been a part of this journey and look forward to seeing their continued success! Special thanks to Patrick Terry and Chris Bernal for hosting. #AGCO #ContinuousImprovement #OperationalExcellence #LeanManufacturing #KaizenEvent #5S #EightWastes #WorkflowOptimization #VisualManagement #Teamwork #PDC #Visalia #Manufacturing #SupplyChain #Productivity #Innovation

The Gemba Kaizen approach is a north star for continuous improvement. But, like any journey, it encounters pitfalls. A common challenge? Overlooking the power of "Go and See." Without setting foot on the shop floor, inefficiencies in the bottling line go unnoticed, leading to increased waste (Muda). 🌟 The Gemba Kaizen way isn't just about identifying and solving problems; it's about fostering a culture where every team member is an agent of change, continuously striving for excellence through respect and teamwork. #GembaKaizen #OperationalExcellence #ContinuousImprovement #ManufacturingExcellence #LeanManufacturing

It’s a wrap! Just presented our Q2/2024 Kaizen project. While we got a consolation prize, the experience was truly insightful. Taking part in Kaizen projects gives us the opportunity to collaborate together on continuous improvements in a few of areas - Safety, Quality, Cost, Time, and People. #Kaizen #Teamwork #Entegris #ContinuousImprovement #EntegrisMalaysia

Kaizen is the culture where employees at all levels of a company work together proactively to achieve regular, incremental improvements to the manufacturing process. Thanks, L&T management for recognizing the improvements. #kaizen #winner_best_kaizen_team
