Video 3 Transcript – Get More Products Through Your Existing Facility

What if you could increase your production capacity by 50% or more using exactly the same equipment, people, and shift patterns you already have without a single dollar, pound, euro of new capital investment?

Hi, I’m Jim McCallum. In this video, I’ll show you how to get more products through your existing facility to slash your unit costs, boost your profits, and give you the flexibility to adjust prices in ways your competitors can’t match.

Problem

You know the frustrations:

  • Your costs seem to be constantly increasing while your margins shrink
  • Your key production equipment sits idle far too often
  • You need capacity for new products but can’t justify more equipment.
 

Part of my skillset is helping you resolve these problems by increasing your productivity. By getting more products through your existing factory and giving you extra capacity for growth.

Solution

From the Practical Vision you created in video 2, you also get the position of both your red dot and green dot on that second line. So how do you reach that green dot position?

First, we get your equipment running at its maximum pace by applying my unique concept of Drumbeat. Some of you may remember a similar concept a few years ago called ‘The Goal’. Well, my Drumbeat concept takes these principles to a new level.

Then we get your equipment running at its maximum uptime by applying some clever techniques to reduce changeover and cleaning times, and unscheduled stoppages.

Then finally we apply the harshest possible measure, called OAE (Overall Asset Effectiveness) to challenge you and your team to reach world-class performance.

Proof

All of this gives you a leap in productivity.

Which leads to lower unit costs, ie, the cost of each product you produce comes down.

Which in turn delivers higher profits and the option to flex your sales prices and still keep your margin.

Note that, for the extra products you make and sell from a productivity increase, the difference between their selling price and cost of materials falls to profit.

All good, huh?

Value

Typically, my clients increase their productivity by 50%. Some even get 100%.

One client improved their productivity by 65%, which reduced their unit costs by 23%. Instead of taking it all in profits, they cut their sales prices by 5% to ramp up sales against their competitors. And still made more money. Wouldn’t you like to have that sales price flexibility too?

That’s what I do. Help you relieve the stresses and frustrations you face in running a manufacturing company. Help you make more money. And beat your competition. I’ll give you bigger benefits quicker than anyone else.

Every day your equipment runs below its potential is another day of profits you’re leaving on the table. Your competition isn’t standing still. They’re looking for every advantage they can get.
