Facilities design



Facilities design

Spring 2008

Competency: This photo is artifact at a facility that was looked at and redesigned by a group project done in a Facilities design class. This demonstrated the various ideas such as lean thinking and production flow.

Summary: This photo is taken from a manufacturing company that produces upscale furniture for private clients as well as hotel chains. The company has issues with production flow as well as production rates. Our ideas and conclusions come to the assumption that poor layout was a large facture in there various issues.

Self-Reflection: This was one of the first project I help lead after I came back from my internship with Bobcat and it was from that experience that I was able to help push for various ideas to be implemented and put into place. One of the teammates that was in the group now works there and is implementing many of the ideas we discussed throughout our studies there.
