POLY-SEAL CORPERATION February 15, 2000
Project Management • Provides an organization powerful tools to improve the organization’s ability to plan, organize, implement and control activities
Project Management Emerged • Growing demand for complex, sophisticated, customized goods and services • Exponential expansion of human knowledge
Project Manager • Integrate all aspects of a project • Ensure proper knowledge and resources are available • Results are produced in a timely, cost effective manner
One time activity Well defined end (results, deliverable) Divided into subtasks Requires careful coordination Control subtasks (timing, cost, performance) Other projects going on at same time. Project
Engineering QIT Mission Our mission is to incorporate the means and techniques that will have us working as a team to successfully turn around business opportunities that outperform the competition in quality, cost performance, and timing, resulting in increased profits.
Completed “Target” Items • All team members have had training in this area • New procedures are in place for quotes • We have taken a different approach to new projects, reducing risk.
Old Quoting Process2 - 3 Weeks Customer Request & Determine Requirements RFQ Log in & Assign Engineer & Quote # Estimate Dwg. Mold Quote, Pc price, Cycle Time, Modeling, Prototype quote, Aux. Equip. Approve By Engineering Director Need Info. NEW REQUIREMENTS Need Info. Approve By Mfg. Manager Marketing Manager for Margin Quote to Salesman Quote to Customer
New Quoting Process1 - 2 Weeks Customer Request RFQ Filled Out Completely Log in & Assign Engineer Estimate Dwg Mold Quote, Pc Price, Cycle Time, Modeling, Prototype Quote, Auxiliary Equipment Marketing Manager for Margin Quote to Salesman Quote to Customer
Next Phase • Streamline development process and procedures • Talk to our customers and vendors and find out what they expect from PS • Investigate new sources • Measure Time
CR Palm & Turn A Project Manager was assigned Team approach taken on the project
Reduce Cost & Development Time Investigate new sources Integrity Mold will build tools built in Portugal at 1/3 traditional costs
Customer Expectations Fully qualify new products Have all specs well defined ie. App. Torque Line trials
Engineering Simulations F.E.A simulations on critical areas Reduce prototype iterations Reduce sample costs
Goals Associated with the Quoting Process • Tracking the status of the Quick Quote Without any support, unable to find out the status of quote. • Robin will be an asset in this area. • Monitoring response time for Engineering Quotes
Quick Quote Time Days
SUMMARY • Project Management, Team Approach • Provides Focus • Clearly Defined Goals/ Target • Cost, Performance, Schedule
