Toshiba & Measurable Management

We began our Measurable Management program with Toshiba America Business Solutions Inc. this week at their toner manufacturing plant in Mitchell, South Dakota.

Toshiba have already introduced Lean Manufacturing into the plant and have invested in Measurable Management to support and add momentum to their Lean initiative. They correctly see that Measurable Management will help them to harness the existing talent and innovative qualities of the workforce and provide a vehicle for developing an improvement focused culture.

Just 60 miles from the Toshiba factory in Sioux Falls, CCL Label presented the first round of improvements from their Measurable Management program and we saw over $500,000 of measurable outcomes from just 14 presentations. These figures will be adjusted and updated at the second round of presentations next month but none the less they show very significant results and demonstrate that Measurable Management continues to deliver more than 10 times the return on investment for the client.

Meanwhile the City of Marshalltown in Iowa have now purchased the materials for their second Measurable Management group facilitated by themselves via a corporate license agreement. This is the first corporate license that we have sold and it is therefore satisfying to see that the client has made a repeat purchase.
