Operational restructuring of a metal stamping manufacturer

NATURE OF ASSIGNMENT: Primary: Operations Restructuring INDUSTRY: Manufacturing COMPANY: $6MM metal stamping and precision machining manufacturer SITUATION: A precision machining manufacturer was losing profitability and productivity and needed guidance. FOCUS SCOPE: A Focus professional was engaged to provide management training and perform an analysis of the Company’s operations. TASKS PERFORMED: Several problems were noted with the Company’s corporate culture, employee interaction and management structure. Our Focus professional recommended that all company activities, plans and results be shared with all employees on a daily basis. In addition, daily productivity goals were set and compared to an actual productivity report on a daily basis. All management staff received the same report and discussed why each department did or did not make their goals. Productivity improvement teams were also formed, which broke the key bottlenecks preventing the plant from meeting shipping goals. RESULTS: With the help of the Focus professional, on-time shipping performance increased from 50% to over 85%, labor overtime costs were reduced by 60%, and productivity improvements resulted in savings exceeding $700,000 per year.

Stamping with such substitute materials – called white metal stamping – became common. The 1890s also saw the increased use of gold foil, a brass-gold alloy that binders found to be more economical than pure gold leaf while still providing an opulent look. Toward the turn of the century, cloth bindings started to fall out of fashion in favor of paper bindings and printed dust jackets. However, the spectacular gold-stamped bindings of the late 19th and early 20th centuries are clear evidence that, at least for some, the art of gold stamping did not lose its luster.
