Challenges and Solutions for Overseas Production Base Expansion
We will identify issues for the efficiency of the current production system and propose specific measures.
● Until now, there have been many cases of expanding production bases overseas to reduce production costs, but in recent years, even overseas bases have seen rising labor costs, making it difficult to differentiate from competitors. The characteristics of production systems overseas have often involved methods that focus on automation specialized for processing points (tasks that cannot be done by human hands) to keep investment costs down. As a result, there are challenges such as the following: 1. The flow of goods is not easily visible (not streamlined) 2. There is variability in capacity at each process (high in-process inventory) 3. There is unnecessary logistics between processes, leading to an increase in personnel 4. Due to the high involvement of people, responses to variations in operating rates and quality are delayed Our company has a track record of reducing personnel, shortening lead times, and improving quality by streamlining the flow of goods while effectively utilizing existing production equipment. If you are facing difficulties after expanding overseas, we would be happy to provide proposals for specific problem-solving, so please feel free to consult with us.
