The challenge for development teams is equivalent to the strategic challenges for companies: Putting innovative products on the market before others do; increasing the number of launches while reducing development costs; controlling technological risks, reducing the carbon footprint….
Many companies have entered into lean manufacturing, but few have converted their development process. Based on the founding concepts of TPS, we have structured a true “Value Creation System” compatible with the requirements of the market and the Supply Chain.
By using proven creativity techniques, we help teams to make giant strides in the quest for innovative solutions. By continuously managing the value chain from marketing, we weight all solutions as a whole for the evaluation of general interest.
By taking into account technical, logistic and organisational aspects in a visual form showing project progress, we gradually integrate product quality into the production system. Problems are dealt with upstream at each project stage until series commissioning, and not a posteriori in emergency situations.
By getting the teams from different departments to work together, we encourage the opening up of minds, combine energies and develop a true culture of simultaneous engineering, thus producing radical changes and ongoing improvement in design phases.
