CCL are the worlds largest supplier of labels to the pharmaceutical industry and are currently implementing Measurable Management at their Sioux Falls plant in South Dakota. I have just been listening this morning to the second round of presentations of improvements from their 17 participants. The outcomes are living up to the usual Measurable Management standards and we will generate a case study when the program is complete. Doug Corp is their lean specialist with the title Process Improvement Manager and this is what he said about the program.
"Employee involvement is the most critical factor to successfully implement lean manufacturing ideas and the people factor is the most frequently overlooked aspect of lean initiatives. After experiencing Measurable Management in our own company CCL Label it is clear that Measurable Management provides the necessary development for addressing the people issues, creating the cultural change and creates a firm foundation for improvement initiatives to succeed."
