Velocity Scheduling System Reviews & Testimonials
- “Overtime has been reduced by 75% while increasing OTD to 95% through this period…”
Steve Fleissner - “Substantially reduced chaos on the floor and provided us with a proven process to schedule and operate under. We have seen improvements in order flow, Due date performance, cash flow and constraints. We look forward to continued success as further implement this process and gain greater understanding utilizing a targeted and integrated process improvement plan. Thanks Dr Lisa! Keith B. Pa.”
Keith B., PA - “Upon implementing the VSS, we noticed the following benefits: reduced WIP by more than 50%, learned we can do more with much less, and we increased visibility for project management and production that has led to a reduced cash flow cycle and happier customers! I recommend the VSS for any job shop that struggles with managing schedules, inventory, and chaos within the manufacturing environment. If you sign on with Dr. Lisa, she will give you the tools you need to get it under control and achieve outstanding results. Thank you, Dr. Lisa!”
Matt Groves - “When we started the VSS we had no unit of mesure and no control for work order release and WIP was pretty high. VSS really helped us to control all those aspects of production. We are seeing production out-put increase with the same amount of operators and a better view and control of our release.”
Director of Production, Plasticon Canada, Inc. - “We had an on time delivery of 92%. We went to VSS looking for improving our scheduling and visibility of orders through the shop. We wanted a way to improve work through our constraints. VSS gave us a discipline to follow, follow the board. Previously we would have operators stay in their different machine areas no matter what the date was on their order was. Now we will pull people from their areas and put them to the next order they can work on. VSS also improved our communication not only to the shop in our 5 minute meetings on each shift, but also through out the day when supervisors, operators, managers can look at the board and discuss what needs to be done and when. Through the POOGI process we have started to look at what caused us to go into the red zone and gives us a tool to review monthly what the number one contributor was and work at ways to eliminate.”
BOB T., CHICAGO METALLIC CORPORATION - “After trying different solutions, included expansive scheduling software with years of implementation required, we finally found a system which delivers what promised! We reduced dramatically (about 30%) our already good manufacturing lead times, have a stable and reliable schedule and everybody in the plant knows what to work on at any point in time. There are so many great things about the VSS but the key is that it’s really fun and easy to implement because it engages the organization as a whole. Thanks Dr. Lisa!”
Alessandro Bernacchia Manufacturing Manager - “We increased our speed dramatically. Thanks to VSS we sell 80% more than before - within two month! Due day performance grew from about 60% to nearly 100%.”
Nils Peters, ALTONA S.A. - “We achieved reduced lead times and increased throughput, as well as, improvement in productivity.VSS also worked very well from a management standpoint with regards to the employees being more involved in the production decisions, not just \"go and do that job\" but they see why they need to get that job done now and I feel they have more ownership in the company.”
Don Cornwell - “Before starting the Velocity Scheduling System our on time delivery was about 68%. After implementation of the system we’re currently running at 100% OTD. The velocity board has been a great tool that provides visibility not only to myself but everyone in the shop. Daily 5 minute meetings keep everyone informed of how jobs are running and if there any problems. This system has been a great help and we are very happy with the results.”
Richard Pothier - “From when our company started tracking each facilities on time performance, we have led with an average of 98%. So I was skeptical that VSS was going to make much of a difference for us. I was (very) wrong with my vision of the limited possibilities. This program has transformed our production from a \\\"Pushing\\\" to a \\\"Pulling\\\" flow through our shop. We have changed from a shop, with individual departments and brought us together as a Team. The communication across the floor, the focus on work and where attention is needed, problem solving, quality and Volume have all improved. And all of it has come with a whole lot less stress. We have been researching and trying other ideas and programs, each with some level of success but Dr. Lisa\\\'s program and personal support has given us the results that we have been looking for. Thank You Dr. Lisa.”
