Velocity Scheduling System Reviews & Testimonials
- “Since the introduction of your velocity concept, we’ve seen an average of 5 jobs ship per week, which was about 1 every two weeks prior to the VSS Coaching (that’s 10 X more job done). Our backlog has gone from an average of 55 jobs to around 20 (while sales remained constant). We’ve also reached 100% on-time performance for all new jobs booked since the VSS Coaching began. Another benefit realized is a steadier invoicing outflow and cash inflow.”
Rick Lightcap - “Prior to the start of the program, there seemed to be constant stress in trying to balance the work load and meet delivery times. Now, after completion of the program, we are nearly caught up with all work that was behind schedule and much better positioned to meet an increase in demand through an increase in available capacity. Our operations are very complex and the work we are required to perform can very greatly, however, we are able to attain our objectives without much of the \\\"panic\\\" or chaos that was present before. We have a solid base established that we can continue to improve and perfect as we grow our business! Thanks Dr. Lisa!”
Shane Pence, Manufacturing Manager - “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 Velocity Scheduling System program and personal support has given us the results that we have been looking for. Thank You Dr. Lisa.”
Jim McClelland Robinson Fans - “VSS changed everything for us. VSS became the new language of our business and changed our focus to a systematic process to improve job flow which resulted in better plant communications, delivery performance and cost reductions.”
Ron Peuterbaugh, Joint Production Technology - “The Velocity Scheduling System has become the centerpiece of our tool shop. The simplicity of administration and visual nature of the system has been received well by the shop. Jobs are finishing faster and deliveries are improving thanks to the VSS Coaching Program.”
Eric - “Throughput within the machine shop drastically increased from, in some cases, 4 weeks to an average of 5 days. With a concentration on \\\"finishing work\\\" we are seeing great benefits in part availability in our assembly departments.”
GE Aviation - Rockford - “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 - “We finished off our fiscal year end 10/31….. could have never turned things around w/out the VSS.!!!!!! We finished the year in the black because ‘the board’ helped us focus on FINISHING! The last 6 months also saw a serious improvement in on time delivery, and an increase in the volume of orders thru our building… No job gets lost in the shuffle no matter how longs its in the building… THANK YOU!”
Tanya DiSalvo - “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 - “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!”
