EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS
Performance check for your production – discover hidden efficiency potential for greater competitiveness.
Maximum productivity, minimum costs
Trim your production for maximum performance – measurable, sustainable, efficient.
- Are high set-up times, inefficient processes and unnecessary stocks slowing down your production?
- OEE, throughput times & costs per unit are not competitive?
- Does your company need quick and effective measures to increase productivity?
Efficiency is no coincidence – it is the result of consistent process optimization and smart control.
In the automotive industry, production efficiency manufacturing efficiency determines market opportunities, cost structures and delivery reliability. OEMs set maximum performance and suppliers are under constant pressure to make their processes faster, leaner and more cost-effective. and more cost-effective.
But many companies struggle with unnecessary waste, excessive set-up times, low machine availability and inefficient material flows.
Our efficiency programs get your production in top form – with immediately measurable results.
Why are many production systems inefficient?
The most common bottlenecks and weak points in automotive production:
- Lack of transparency - Important KPIs such as OEE, cycle times or process stability are not actively controlled.
- High machine downtimes - Maintenance strategies are reactive instead of preventive, unplanned downtimes cost millions.
- Set-up times & changeovers too long - Production changeovers take too long and reduce flexibility.
- Inefficient material flows & inventories - Material is unnecessarily relocated or is available in the wrong place.
- Waste & lack of lean principles - Overproduction, high scrap rates and non-value-adding activities increase costs.
The result: Excessively high costs, poor delivery reliability and a lack of competitiveness.

Our efficiency programs are effective in three key areas
OEE optimization & increasing machine availability
- Your machines are not running at full capacity, OEE values are too low?
- Unplanned downtimes and long waiting times cost valuable production capacity?
Our solution
- Identification of the greatest OEE losses - Unplanned downtimes, low availability, cycle time problems
- Introduction of TPM (Total Productive Maintenance) to reduce machine downtimes
- Automated OEE tracking & real-time key figures for maximum transparency
- SMED methods for shortening changeover times and faster product changeovers
Track record
- OEE increase of 15-20% through systematic elimination of weak points
- Reduce maintenance costs by 25 % by introducing preventive maintenance strategies
Material flow & inventory optimization - Reduce costs, increase speed
- Is your material flow inefficient, transportation routes too long, stocks too high?
- A lack of transparency leads to unnecessary storage costs and missing components on the line?
Our solution
- Optimization of material supply with just-in-time & just-in-sequence processes
- Implementation of smart Kanban systems for inventory reduction
- Simplification of layouts & material flows for shorter transport routes & faster production times
- Dynamic adjustment of inventory strategies - no excessive safety stocks, but always ready for delivery
Track record
- Reduce stock levels by up to 30%
- Shorter throughput times thanks to optimized material provision - up to 50 % faster material availability
Process stability & performance management - Lean & Six Sigma for sustainable efficiency
- Are fluctuating quality, unclear processes and a lack of standardization slowing down your production?
- Improvement initiatives come to nothing because there is no sustainable anchoring?
Our solution
- Implementation of stable process standards with 5S & best practice methods
- Process mapping & value stream mapping to identify critical bottlenecks
- Six Sigma approaches to reduce process variability and waste
- CIP methods & store floor management for continuous performance improvement
Track record
- Error rate reduced by up to 40 % through targeted process stabilization
- Increase production capacity by 20 % without investing in new machines
