Decision Making Hierarchy• SAFETY
– Our people’s well-being is of the utmost importance– Safe processes are paramount to our business
• QUALITY– Robust and repeatable processes will provide quality products
• DELIVERY– We must meet our customers needs with the right parts at the right time and in the right
amount
• PRODUCTIVITY– We must continue to strive to produce a product that meets our customers expectations at
the best cost possible
Lean Principles
Lean focuses on: – The creation of value through the elimination of all
types of waste. – The value stream. All the activities required to put a
finished product in the hands of the customer.– Improving process flow to reduce lead times and
inventory.– Producing based on pull instead of push-based
scheduling. – Perfection of all processes and tasks
