Brief Background of AMC • Advanced Manufacturing Consultancy (AMC) is a Manufacturing Consulting company, founded and registered in Malaysia in 2001 • The company is founded by former Seagate Technology’s internal Corporate Lean Consultants. They had extensive exposure in Lean Deployment within Seagate and led the Supplier Lean Academy in Asia. Having accomplished great savings for Seagate & its suppliers they formed AMC as a leading service provider in Lean Manufacturing consulting & training in Asia and have currently expanded to wider areas of service Manufacturing & business solutions towards increased profitability
Lean & TOC in a nut-shell: What is Lean Manufacturing • Lean is a leading edge manufacturing technology which aims to identify and eliminate or reduce “Lean Wastes” (non value added activities) in any manufacturing environment (regardless of size or industry) by using systematic Lean Tools. • The “Lean Wastes” are : • Excess Inventory • Maintaining excess inventory of raw materials, parts in process, or finished goods • Overproduction • Producing more than is needed before it is needed • Motion • Any wasted motion to pick up parts or stack parts • Transportation • Wasted effort to transport materials, parts, or finished goods into or out of storage • Waiting • Material awaiting to be processed or to be transported • Over processing • Doing more work than is necessary • Correction • Repair or Rework • Unutilized Human Resources • Not using operators to their maximum ability Manufacturing & business solutions towards increased profitability
Lean & TOC in a nut-shell: What Is The TOC • The Theory of Constraints is a focused and proven approach of identifying what limits (constraints) a system from achieving it’s profit goals or continuously achieving higher goals and exploiting these constraints in order to achieve quantum gains within a very short period of time • Advanced Manufacturing Consultancy approaches Manufacturing Solutions by using the Theory of Constraints to identify System Limitations (Constraints) and using Lean Tools to eliminate Waste at the constraint This results in unbelievable leaps of increased Productivity and Throughput within a very short period of time Manufacturing & business solutions towards increased profitability
