Over the years, there have been the founding of many companies. However, after this founding, most companies fail to succeed. One of the reasons these companies succeed is the lack of correct measures to regulate their performance, making them lose their competitive advantage. Even though there are different performances that the company should regulate, one of the most important ones is the manufacturing process. As a monitoring and control consultant and specialist in si-Pro Performance Fly Rods, my main task is ensuring it maintains the right manufacturing process. Since every market has a different problem, I will apply unique measures to address the market in the United States, Argentina, and New Zealand.
For example, since the US market is producing more than the acceptable upper limit of performance since it is producing 126%, I will employ measures to reduce this performance. One of the processes I will employ is just-in-time manufacturing. In this process, I will only bring the materials needed in the manufacturing process to the market. This process will therefore be outstanding since it will help eliminate most types of waste usually associated with the surplus. This process will also help attain a quicker turnover, helping to minimize the money tied to the materials. The next measure will be to locate and eliminate the bottlenecks. Since bottlenecks usually delay the manufacturing process, eliminating bottlenecks would help to reduce work-in-progress time, maximizing output. Some examples of bottlenecks are slow Wi-Fi connection which could delay the project's approval time.
On the other hand, since the Argentina market manufacturing proc...
