Workforce Optimization Solutions

Workforce Optimization Solutions

The two primary cost drivers for a company is labor and materials costs. TPT, with our highly skilled Industrial Engineers helps you optimize not only your manufacturing processes and materials storage and utilization, but also, we optimize your labor to support your production.  We focus our efforts on you direct labor supporting your manufacturing operations as well as indirect labor such as material handlers and maintenance personnel.

Benefits of Workforce Optimization

Benefits of Workforce Optimization

When you choose to use our workforce optimization solutions there are many benefits, such as:

  • Reduce cost

  • Improve productivity

  • Maximize technology investments

  • Reduce cost

  • Improve productivity

  • Maximize technology investments

  • Improve customer satisfaction

  • No process disruption

  • Improve customer satisfaction

  • No process disruption

At The Productivity Team, we send in a team of qualified engineers to videotape the manufacturing processes to review back at our offices. This way we limit the amount of disruption we cause when conducting our work. This ultimately saves you time and money.

Future State Plan Development

  • Rebalancing of manufacturing and assembly content focused on the elimination of non-value-added activities which include the following:

    • Defects
    • Overproduction
    • Waiting
    • Not utilizing talent
    • Transportation
    • Inventory excess
    • Motion waste
    • Excess processing

  • Correct any identified ergonomic or safety issues from the baseline assessment
