Products are our services and our reporting and analysis tools. In the hands of Lean Material Management Consultant, the Team (Shop management and production staff along with local distributor support) directs S.O.P.s and Lean Material Usage in the shop.
-
One of the Building Blocks of Lean Material Management is our Product Usage Report.
-
For Management is a snapshot of KPI's
-
For Supervisors it is a breakdown by department of repair process, of material usage.
-
For technicians it is a part number specific tool to manage materials.
-
Our approach is to manage the big things first this report is prioritized to do just that.
-
Color and Clear being the larges P&M cost categories, are always a top priority.
-
Surface preparation as a category is important twofold:
-
Third largest category for material costs often needs more attention because these products are often used by entry level or personnel with less experience and training than other technicians.
-
Durability and long term appearance of any paint work depend on this foundation step.
