Waste incurred during the production process can have a significant impact on a company’s bottom line. This Guide demonstrates how ten companies across the UK industrial spectrum have used a simple production-data-based approach to acquire a better understanding of their processes, identify areas of avoidable waste and opportunities for process improvement, check the effectiveness of improvements made, and ensure that the benefits are maintained. The net result to each company has been improved process control, significant cost savings and important environmental benefits. This Guide should be read in conjunction with GG224 Preventing Waste in Production: Practical Methods for Process Control.
