Aberdeen Report - Lean Scheduling and Execution

71% of Best-in-Class manufacturers are focusing on Lean scheduling and execution
to reduce overall manufacturing costs. Their results?
95% On Time Delivery
91%Throughput
79% Reduction in Manufacturing Cycle Time year over year

This benchmark study showcases the operational performance benefits manufacturers are currently enjoying due to the adoption of Lean scheduling and execution principles.

In the Lean universe, two of the major tenets are Continuous improvement? and Waste removal? which in the eyes of many Lean purists leaves no room for technology adoption. Fortunately, a new generation of manufacturing professionals has come of age and is, to a large extent, implementing Lean scheduling and execution principles with an entirely new set of technology applications.
These newer manufacturers are just as vigilant as their predecessors; with a laser focus on reducing overall manufacturing costs. How do they do it?

They put focus on more than the traditional pillars of Lean or TQM by concentrating on
integrating enabling technologies with ERP They synchronizing demand with execution
They smooth production schedules

In the Lean Scheduling and Execution Benchmark Report,
based on the survey responses of over 400 manufacturing enterprises:
