How to Drive Performance Improvements in your Factory

The success of any focussed improvement effort will depend on your ability to effectively engage and leverage frontline workers in identifying and applying best practices. For this reason, a standard pillar of all Lean Manufacturing systems is the importance of elevating and supporting the role of workers in the value stream.

Despite our best intentions and efforts to build a culture of continuous improvement that extends to workers, it is not easy without the right tools. Luckily in this age of digital manufacturing, we can use innovative applications, to connect workers like we are connecting our machines.
