Mass Customization Consulting Services Offered:
Use
Mass Customization as one of your most powerful strategic weapons!
Drive down the time it takes to develop and deliver new products,
dramatically reduce inventory and manufacturing time. Slash the cost of
quality, and win market share. This strategy provides you with the means to do it.
Substantial
market share has been lost over years to foreign competitors. No
industry is immune. The pressure is on to be the nothing less than the
best. But being the best takes serious change and it's no easy matter.
You've
got to streamline your factories, systems and organizations, and open
up lines of communication. You've got to break down barriers between
departments and put an end to the "we've always done it this way"
argument. You've got to get your employees highly involved in assuming
new responsibilities if you're going to compete in the global markets
in the next decade.
Whether you are a discrete
product or process manufacturer, make-to-order or repetitive, Rockford
Consulting Group can help you increase your competitiveness by reducing
throughput time, reducing lead times, reducing costs, increasing velocity and capacity,
increasing flexibility, reducing inventory, and increasing quality, through selection and implementation
of the right manufacturing strategy for your company. We are a
boutique consulting firm that specializes in manufacturing,
distribution and supply chain management. We serve companies
wishing to become world-class performers. We get results!!!
Mr.Richard G. Ligus CMC CPCM was one of the first consultants in the U.S.
to introduce the concept of enterprise agility at the 1990
International Manufacturing Technology Conference in Chicago, IL. The
article can be found on this website at the following page: Regaining World Market Share Starts With
Getting Physical....and Agile.
The concept was derived from an multi-national assignment that demanded
fresh and out-of-the-box thinking, driven by market demand for
specialized products (customerized), high quality, speed of
manufacture, and fast delivery.
Since then Rockford Consulting Group has supported companies who wish
to achieve world class performance and become market leaders. As
companies search for ways to react to intense competitive pressures in
the next decade, our consultants offer a unique group of integrated
dynamic state-of-the-art services to help clients develop high
