“Jerking manufacturing around is cost effective” are you kidding? Believe it or not the director of planning, of what has turned out to be a successful midsized company, made this comment more than once. Albeit, this statement was made a few years ago and you guessed it, he is no longer with the company.
When I heard this statement coming from the mouth of a senior director in the company I was, needless to say, floored. There may still be people out there that think this way coming from whatever logic they have conjured up in their minds, but thankfully the business educated prevail.
Jerking your manufacturing around is like saying cost is no object in manufacturing. It would have been interesting to see this guy talk about the jerking manufacturing around and the inconsequential cost of manufacturing to Henry Ford while he was developing his high volume automation in the day.
If you have folks in your organization that subscribe to this thinking I want you to know it’s wrong and you have options to the ” jerk around manufacturing theory” with our company www.semiconoutsourcemgmtco.com .
