Initial situation
Profol Greiz GmbH is a hidden champion for high-performance films. Profol invests massively in innovative products such as the Progano® composite material and award-winning food films. The company not only wants to be a leader in its products, but also to make its processes sustainable. In order to benefit from best practice experience, the technical manager decided to work with FactoryPuls.
Project process
FactoryPuls project goal is to optimize the organization of maintenance tasks. An intensive kick-off workshop with the maintenance management team raised awareness of lean management and digitization. With the help of the LEAN method Makigami, the actual and target process was determined.
The target process was documented and coordinated with the management team. To enable the process to be implemented quickly and efficiently, a planning tool was set up and adapted to the special requirements of the technical team.
In order to be able to use the new technology operationally and mobile, the entire technical team was equipped with modern handheld devices and trained in the use of the planning tool.
Result
The optimization of the process and the use of more digital technologies led to an increase in transparency, efficiency and employee satisfaction.
Since the technology can be used company-wide, there are plans to roll out the developed solution in other areas.
