Development of a new logistics concept for a high-tech mechanical engineering company

Planning and implementation of production control for a new production site

What can a young company do when its own success exceeds its capacities and it requires new production space? In such a situation, it is not easy to develop a material flow, information flow and layout concept based on lean production principles. There tends to be a lack of experience and know-how, with staff already heavily challenged by the constantly growing daily business.

Our client, a high-tech manufacturer of sensors, called on BLSG to help them master this situation. A concept for all production, logistics and order control processes, including layout, was then developed in intensive workshops. Variable and capable of growth, this concept meets the requirements of increased production volumes and at the same time represents an evolutionary step towards lean production. The BLSG consultants were present at crucial moments during and after the move to assure a smooth launch of the new processes in the new production facility.

Development of a target picture of an ideal factory from the perspective of digitalization

How will the ideal factory of a leading automotive supplier look in 2025? Experts from the fields of production, logistics, quality assurance and IT, moderated by BLSG consultants, were commissioned by management to answer this question. In addition to developing a target image of the ideal factory, the results included a maturity model for evaluating all plant sites and a roadmap for implementation.

Design of production and logistics processes for a new production line of an existing product

An additional production site is required for a successful product that is already in production at another site. Many would simply opt for a copy-and-paste approach to this challenge. A large and successful automotive supplier was not satisfied with this, because they saw a rare opportunity not only to apply new principles and approaches, but also to test their effectiveness against the benchmark of the “old” plant.

This was the right moment to bring BLSG on board to help develop a production system that was as efficient and lean as possible.Read more

Facilitation of a large meeting of logistics managers using the Future Conference method

How do you get a group of 70 top executives to talk about a certain topic, and, in less than two days, achieve a result that everyone can get behind? We chose the Future Conference method and developed a visionary logistics process for a major automotive supplier in consultation with logistics managers from all over the world.
