Omsk laboratory equipment supplier presented the first results of participation in the national project

The EPAK-Service enterprise summed up the interim results of work within the framework of the national project "Labor Productivity". The Omsk company, which provides a full range of services for the supply of analytical and auxiliary laboratory equipment, started implementing the national project three months ago, and the site for optimizing the storage cabinet manufacturing process was selected as a sample flow.

At the meeting, the project manager presented the interim results of the project and the targets for the next three-month cycle, demonstrated the developed and implemented plan for creating a reference site, and showed the implemented improvements in the was-it-became photo format.

"When analyzing the pilot flow, the project's working group identified about 60 losses, for example, unnecessary movements for products, alterations and defects, long-term product search, and also compiled a list of proposed solutions indicating risk reduction measures. Our company expects from participation in the national project "Labor Productivity" to increase production efficiency, reduce costs, which in the future will increase wages and improve the working conditions of each employee. We also plan to increase production volumes and expand the sales market," said Dmitry Balashenko, project Manager.

Thus, during the stages of diagnosis and implementation of improvements, the working group identified the quarantine zone and conducted sorting, implemented measures to create a comfortable and safe workplace using the 5C system, developed standards for operational procedures and workplaces, and implemented production analysis. Also, as part of the implementation of the national project, managers, members of the working group and staff were trained in the use of lean manufacturing tools, and practical experience was gained at the Process Factory.

"Experts from the Regional Competence Center are helping to optimize the work of the Omsk company. Increasing the efficiency of an enterprise begins with a pilot project – the most labor-intensive and usually the most profitable site. For six months, experts from the competence center, together with a working group, have been studying it and helping to find problems that reduce labor productivity. Next, the company is waiting for 2.5 years of independent work, where the approaches will be replicated to other work processes," said Konstantin Kovalev, head of the RCC.
