Training and implementation of lean manufacturing tools at enterprises in the region continues at the Process Factory training and production site as part of the implementation of the national project "Labor Productivity".
So, on December 20, a training session was held for employees of the Metallinvest industrial company. The company is engaged in the reception of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, recycling and aluminum casting.
It should be recalled that last week a kick-off meeting was held, where representatives of the Ministry of Economy of the Omsk region, RCC experts, senior staff and employees of the company discussed the national project implementation plan for the next six months, and also took part in a tour of the enterprise.
At the Omsk "Process Factory", the training is based on the example of the assembly process of the "Gas Pressure Regulator" unit. By assembling it with their own hands, the training participants analyze the progress of work, identify problems and losses, and implement improvements.
"The participants of the Process Factory must assemble a certain number of products in a limited time. Everyone gets a role in the team: a logistician, a customer, a shop supervisor, a quality director, an assembler - and learns to interact with colleagues in an unusual environment. During the course of the assignment, the members of the working group gradually come to understand that the "traditional" approach does not allow them to achieve the necessary productivity. By trial and error, the participants, under the guidance of trainers, are looking for solutions to the identified problems: rearranging tables, tidying up workplaces, lining up in the conveyor, changing the functionality of employees in order to optimize the process. Such training in the action and effect of immersion allows specialists to develop stable skills in identifying and eliminating losses in production flows," said Konstantin Kovalev, head of the RCC.
Metallinvest employees noted that during the training they were able to track the dynamics of financial, human, time and logistical indicators and improve the quality of their products.

For reference: The Process Factory is a training platform for the management and employees of enterprises participating in the national Labor Productivity project, which was created on the basis of the regional Agency for Development and Investment of the Omsk Region. Thanks to the national project, enterprises can benefit from the free assistance of RCC specialists in implementing lean production tools and culture in order to reduce the time of production processes.
