The central theme of the Lean Manufacturing philosophy is the elimination of wasteful, non-valued added work. At Sound Sleep Products we work hard to lower manufacturing and administration costs by reducing and eliminating waste such as:
Over-production: We produce product to your demand in a one-piece flow factory.
Wait Time: We have a balanced work production line that keeps everyone working.
Transportation Waste: We stage raw materials close to the production worker.
Over-Processing Waste: We work to eliminate duplication and non-value added work in our processes.
Inventory Waste: We work with vendors to receive raw materials just in time and operators do not produce batches ahead of schedules.
Motion Waste: We layout work cells so operators have their tools and supplies near them.
Defect Waste: First time quality is stressed throughout all work processes.
We know that you and your customers do not want to pay for wasteful manufacturing work practices that are absorbed and passed on as higher prices. Although we are just beginning the journey of lean manufacturing, we work hard in our factory, office, and with our vendors to eliminate waste so we can maintain and even lower our prices.
If you are interested in partnering with us to reduce or eliminate wasteful practices in our relationship with you, please contact your sales representative.
