The ArganoSCMO2 Supply Chain Performance Improvement team has worked with manufacturing clients across many industries. Some need a more efficient material flow or operating layout. Others need to fix material genealogy supported by serialization, track and trace. But most clients find what they really need is an agreed-upon playbook for decision-making on the plant floor. From rework requirements, product substitutions, to acceptance of a rush order, we can help you streamline your production processes.
Improve End-to-End Flow Through
SUPPLY CHAIN PRODUCTION
Transforming inputs to create unique value is your competitive advantage. A smooth production flow dictates whether you maximize profits, exceed customer expectations and outperform others in your industry while maintaining that advantage.
Effectively managing operating assets, materials and other resources across both in-house and outsourced production lines can present immense challenges. Deciding how to best use these assets is critical to managing a stable but agile operation. ArganoSCMO2 can help you stand up new operations, develop the right operating practices and fine tune outcomes on the plant floor. Get the right product in the right quantities with the right quality out of your plant—at the right time, and safely.
FIX
Do you have high-capacity utilization but struggle with low-production OTIF metrics? Are your inventory levels swollen? Is expediting considered a “high art” in your operations? Is your ERP system output an unusable mess? ArganoSCMO2 can work with your team to tackle these challenges.
BUILD
Standing up a new plant? Starting up a new piece of equipment? Developing a new process for managing your overall operations? Our team designs and deploys end-to-end procedures for the full operating lifecycle, from creation to productive use to responsible end-of-life recycle or reuse.
PERFORM
Already have operations running near perfection but looking for a way to drive continuous improvement (CI) or fine-tune performance? We can help you establish a CI organization, apply lean techniques, develop the appropriate playbooks and assist in onboarding and training your CI team.
CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT SCOPE
Industry 4.0—Digital Plant
Are you preparing to adopt new digital technologies.? Is your operation looking to unlock new ways of managing variability and enhancing productivity? Data analysis, analytics, human machine interaction and a digital twin—ArganoSCMO2 can guide your strategy.
Execution Effectiveness
Is your production and demand out of sync? Are there shifting bottlenecks in your operation? Whether you choose a Toyota Production System or a Drum-Buffer-Rope strategy, our team will help you develop and deploy a process that uniquely fits your needs.
Outsource/Toll Manufacturing
Do you know when it makes sense to manufacture externally? Can your production planning, input tracking and semi-finished goods processes support outsourcing? We provide insights on when to outsource and how to set up processes to accommodate this capability.
Serialization, Track and Trace
Need to track location, temp and humidity data as your products move around the world? Is a serialization or genealogy model critical to tracking specific product attributes? The ArganoSCMO2 team has designed and implemented these approaches across multiple industries.
Business Rule Management
Are your production decisions being made quickly? Are interruptions clouding your visibility? Defining how decisions are made and to whom they are communicated is crucial. We can define a playbook to govern issues so everyone knows their role and what to expect.
Layout and Material Flow
Setting up new operations, relocating operations or experiencing capacity constraints? Plant optimization will improve capacity, provide cost savings, and uncover additional efficiencies. We apply lean and Six-Sigma techniques to help companies optimize their operations.
