Use Cellular Manufacturing as one of your most powerful strategic weapons! Drive down the time it takes to develop and deliver new products, dramatically reduce inventory and manufacturing time. Slash the cost of quality, and win market share. This strategy provides you with the means to do it.
Substantial market share has been lost over years to foreign competitors. No industry is immune. The pressure is on to be the nothing less than the best. But being the best takes serious change and it's no easy matter.
You've got to streamline your factories, systems and organizations, and open up lines of communication. You've got to break down barriers between departments and put an end to the "we've always done it this way" argument. You've got to get your employees highly involved in assuming new responsibilities if you're going to compete in the global markets in the next decade.
Whether you are a discrete product or process
manufacturer, make-to-order or repetitive, Rockford Consulting Group
can help you increase your competitiveness by reducing throughput time,
reducing lead times, increasing capacity, increasing flexibility,
reducing inventory, through selection and implementation of the right
manufacturing strategy for your company.

Our base consultants were part of an
organization that introduced Japanese manufacturing techniques to the
U.S. in the late 1970's-early 80's, when it was called "Just-in-Time".
The techniques deployed included the design and development of product,
process, and flexible workcells, to be later known as cellular
manufacturing. This provided them with early, hands-on experience with
cellular manufacturing applications.
Since then Rockford Consulting Group has supported companies who wish
to achieve world class performance and become market leaders with
cellular manufacturing strategies. Today, we assist clients in
developing and implementing cellular manufacturing with demonstrated,
substantial results. Contact us (click here) for more information on how we can improve your operations.
