Lean Manufacturing
From the outset of its establishment, Forvorda has attached great importance to the concepts and work of lean production, and set up its own lean promotion team in 2007. In 2012, Forvorda heavily invested in inviting lean improvement expert consultants from Japan to vigorously promote Forvorda's lean management work. Today, the Industrial Engineering Department undertakes the promotion of Forvorda's lean improvement work and the popularization and training of lean knowledge and concepts, and contributes to Forvorda's cost reduction and efficiency increase, process optimization, 5S management, development planning, and other work.
Company-wide Proposal for Improvement
Forvorda has always encouraged all employees to make suggestions for its improvement, especially reasonable suggestions for lean production, which have been highly valued by Forvorda's management. The Industrial Engineering Department organizes company-wide proposal improvement activities. According to the proposal collection, regular proposal review activities are carried out to select the excellent proposals and promote the implementation of these improvement plans. For employees who perform better in proposal review , they are granted titles such as "Improvement Pioneer" and "Improvement Expert", as well as other bonuses and awards.
Value Stream Analysis
Using the Value Stream Mapping (VSM) tool from Industrial Engineering (IE), Forvorda sorts out the work processes of various departments, identifies waste in the workflow, plans future maps based on the current situation, and develop action plan for implement.
Process Optimization and Productivity improvement
Based on the measurement of working hours in the existing production process, Forvorda identifies bottleneck processes and proposes improvement methods to address the "eight major wastes" identified in the process. Through the optimization of each production line's process, Forvorda promotes balanced production concepts, making the production process orderly and efficient.
5S Management and Promotion
Factory 5S management is a continuous forward job at Forvorda. From new employee onboarding to regular 5S inspections and improvements in production workshops and offices, Forvorda's 5S management level improves yearly. But corresponding standard requirements are also continually rising. By organizing, tidying, and cleaning the site, and maintaining its cleanliness, we're instilling a culture of regular 5S activities across Forvorda. These 5S activities will be persistently carried out company-wide.
