Furniture manufacturing has always been a typical industry with low technical content and manpower greater than the strength of the industry. It is precisely because the industry is labor intensive and low value-added. Most furniture companies have weak independent innovation capabilities and lack of brand advantages, resulting in more viability. weak. Since 2008, the manufacturing industry has been further constrained by factors such as time, geographical, environmental and labor price increases. The deterioration of the external environment and the lack of core technology in enterprises have made it necessary to rely on internal management to achieve long-term manufacturing. Lean production can last forever in internal and external troubles.
So what is “lean productionâ€? The so-called "lean production", referred to as "lean", refers to the use of production methods that eliminate waste and uninterrupted work processes, rather than batch and queue. Specifically, through changes in system structure, personnel organization, operation mode, and market supply and demand, the production system can quickly adapt to the changing needs of users, and all the useless and redundant things in the production process can be streamlined and finally reach the market. The best results in all aspects of production, including supply and marketing, are characterized by “multiple varieties†and “small batchesâ€. Lean production is a management philosophy derived from Toyota's production methods.
In this way, to do lean production, the author believes that we need to start from the following points:
1. Customized production capacity: how to be closer to customers, create value-added products and services, and ultimately achieve corporate profit while meeting customer needs, which requires enterprises to have marketing models, innovative thinking and leadership skills, corporate culture and other aspects. Building a tree, a new business model.
2. Lean production : From the manufacturing point of view, the factory must be as automated as possible, eliminate manufacturing waste, obtain maximum production efficiency, increase labor productivity and effectively reduce costs; human stability is the company to reduce training costs, improve manufacturing capacity, The key to acquiring innovation comes from lean management.
3. Industry chain and specialization subdivision: quote from a foreign management book: “Chainization advantage refers to a group of geographically close and interconnected institutions that develop synergistically in the field through common interests and complementarities. Linking together to promote regional or industrial economic development, resource integration and utilization has promoted the professional segmentation and deepening of enterprises, which plays an indispensable role in improving manufacturing capabilities.
The furniture industry has developed for 30 years. At present, the furniture companies that have survived in China are not a long history. There are also many companies involved in the furniture manufacturing industry for 30 years. However, in the past, almost all of them have been struggling. But after all, it still stumbled and persisted.
For such a company, we can only admit that we are an excellent enterprise within the Chinese furniture industry. However, taking other industries as the standard and taking the international as the standard, we are by no means an excellent enterprise furniture enterprise. It is painful to think that furniture companies need to find a piece. A long-term way out, to achieve the factory from "manufacturing" to "intelligence", "lean production" is the best destination of this road.
