Auditing picking cycles, forklift travel paths, and buffer inventory areas.
Layout, which will be a function of the building you work in, floor area, number of levels, position of manufacturing, support, docks relative to each other.
Planning physical floor placement minimizes forklift travel distances and product routing loops. Dock relationship audits streamline receiving, shipping, and in-process inventory buffering.

Justify all capital expenditure. Receive, tag, inventory, and control all in-plant equipment.
Evaluating robotic sorting and automatic packing additions ensures capital expenditures target true bottleneck constraints. Equipment tagging audits provide full control over machinery assets.

A formal cost reduction program, with contribution by all. Promote the program, plan incentives, calculate savings, publish results.
Cost reduction audits evaluate SKU profitability and material batch size trade-offs. Pruning low-volume lines reduces setup changes, freeing up valuable floor capacity. Jack also audits labor costs resulting from engineering specification changes.

Cost Standards, formal, administered and audited, for P&L and variance analysis.
Establish cost standards to structure daily variance reporting. Standard data integrates directly with accounting P&L records, providing accurate financial control of labor metrics.

Manning analysis correlates crew size allocations to direct standard capacity requirements. Balancing direct operators with indirect material handlers avoids floor starvation and over-manning bottlenecks during product mix shifts.

Work simplification studies target skilled labor waste. In many facilities, high-rate machinists spend a significant portion of their shift doing lower-skill work, such as searching for tools or moving pallets. Correct methods simplify workstations and maximize operator utilization.

Jack uses unannounced floor observations and cycle audits to construct operator-level work standards. By measuring the variance of direct versus indirect hours, the operations team identifies true performance margins.
