Focus on Being Productive Instead of Busy
Helping our customers do more in less time is what we are all about at TCI Precision Metals, but sometimes even we need to be reminded that without efficiency, busy is not always better. The old adage of ‘we’ve always done it that way’ no longer applies. Today we need to constantly challenge the status quo, and consider new ideas and methods, not just in manufacturing, but in every aspect of business, and life for that matter.
In a production environment, Identifying and eliminating bottlenecks, time-consuming low-value processes, and general inefficiencies can go a long way towards improving the bottom line. For example, using equip that is not optimized for a particular operation can translate into busy work that is not profitable.
Taking our own advice, we recently invested in several new pieces of equipment with the sole objective of doing more in less time. The added productivity is passed on to our customers in the form of expanded capabilities, shorter delivery times and competitive pricing.
We know you’re busy; we invite you to take a step back to see if you can be more productive.
