Increase Manufacturing Productivity and Employee Engagement with the New Novo Lean Metric Stand

BRISTOL, Conn. - March 3, 2020 - PRLog -- The Lean Metrics Stand: What Gets Measured, Gets Done

The common theme of companies who transform for greater efficiencies is their ability to communicate the operational vision to their teams. At Novo, we distilled the best practices from our president's 20 years of Lean manufacturing to create a turnkey system for bringing operational data right to the shop floor. We treat business data as a strategic asset, and our entire team comes together on a shared mission to improve the organization and their own work. Now we're offering the same Lean Metrics Stand we use in our own facility, to other companies who are just as intent on achieving continuous process improvement through data-driven management.

Better Shop Floor Management Means Superior Performance

In a footprint of less than 3x3 feet, you can now display more easy-to-interpret, actionable information than on 50 square feet of conventional wall boards. Even better, this freestanding tool is simple for one person to move right into the work cell so your performance metrics will never be out of sight against a wall or hidden in a corner. Your line workers and managers will get feedback where it's needed most -- close to the point of use -- so they can interact with the data, understand problems and develop a strategy to improve. It's the same management system we've used at Novo to deliver continuous improvement, including increased employee productivity of almost 46% in just the last two years.
Intelligently Designed as a Complete Turnkey System

Quick to assemble, Novo's Lean Metrics Stand https://www.novoprecision.com/products/lean-metrics-stand/ measures 33"x33"x80" including the topper for identifying the work cell. It's constructed of 80-20 extruded aluminum, engineered for strength, durability and an attractive industrial appearance. At 90 pounds, it rolls easily on built-in casters to wherever it's needed on the shop floor.

This turnkey Lean manufacturing solution features sturdy clamps to display hard copies of Safety, Quality, Delivery, Cost and Morale metrics, and even includes training materials and electronic sample files to help you create your own data charts.

The Easiest Way Ever to Implement Lean Manufacturing

Novo's Lean Metrics Stand can be the catalyst for process improvement in your own business -- not just in a manufacturing environment, but also across many industries. Offices and call centers can use this versatile management tool during their daily walk-through of the operations. Even Showrooms and retail spaces are perfect settings for delivering the right information, at the right place and the right time. Whatever your application, the Lean Metrics Stand displays the daily performance metrics in a compact, well-organized space to allow all team members to contribute.
