CDC Factory

Pharmaceutical

If you are like many pharmaceutical producers, you are feeling the pressure to increase effeciencies whilst reducing production costs in order to remain competitive against growing generic manufactuerers and foreign low cost producers. Gone are the days when there were healthy capital budgets to do this.

Those companies successfully meeting this challenge are armed with accurate OEE and per-unit cost information. They are implementing immediate action and review cycles on the factory floor enabling shop floor operators to make real-time adjustments and measure immediate improvements - all in fewer than 8 weeks. CDC Factory is a manufactring operations management system that safely introduces innovations to drive productivity without risking non-compliance.

Sustained performance improvements in OEE and production costs are harnessed by the latent potential in your own workforce. The system comes pre-loaded with pre-seeded data and day-to-day meeting structures all ready for immediate use. Our packaged implementation framework concentrates on driving improvement actions, embedding day to day behavior changes and harnessing the 'best of the best' Lean improvement practices.
