Case Studies - Real Results from Operational Excellence

Manufacturing team working on an assembly process
PRODUCTIVITY

Assembly Line Optimization

+38%

Productivity improvement

  • Standard work
  • Line balancing

UES redesigned and balanced the assembly line, introduced standard work, and ensured tools and materials were available at the point of use. This improved workflow reduced unnecessary movement, minimized delays.

Organized warehouse inventory and storage racks
WORKING CAPITAL

Inventory & Cash Flow

−66%

Finished goods inventory

  • S&OP
  • Demand alignment

Rising inventory was tying up valuable cash. UES implemented Sales & Operations Planning (S&OP), daily performance reviews, and structured follow-ups to align sales, operations, production, and customer demand.

Industrial manufacturing equipment and metal components
COST REDUCTION

Foundry Improvement Process

−17%

Cost per piece

  • Process optimization
  • Waste reduction

High per-piece manufacturing cost was affecting the client’s competitiveness. UES improved the foundry process by optimizing coating materials, reducing coating layers, and streamlining repetitive fettling and rework activities.

Team planning and reviewing a workspace layout
SPACE OPTIMIZATION

Factory Space Optimization

−50%

Factory space requirement

  • Lean layout
  • Flow improvement

Rapid business expansion required 10× growth within only 5× the available area, creating a need to improve factory space utilization without reducing capacity. UES reduced cycle times through Kaizen, balanced the production

Production planning and on-time delivery case study
DELIVERY PERFORMANCE

Production Planning & OTD

85%

On-time delivery achieved

  • Production control
  • Tracking

Lack of structured production planning led to daily firefighting and customer-driven priorities. UES introduced a structured Excel-based planning system with automated formats for better planning, tracking, and operational control.

EQUIPMENT EFFECTIVENESS

OEE & TPM Improvement

+20 pp

OEE: 63% to 83%

  • TPM
  • Downtime reduction

Low equipment effectiveness was limiting production capacity and productivity. UES identified key losses and downtime, then implemented focused TPM actions to improve machine availability, performance, and utilization.
