I work in a very old school business. It's a small (under 50 employees) tool and die/metal stamping company. Metal forming has been around for thousands of years (blacksmiths, weapons makers, etc.). The metal stamping industry has been around since mass production was used in manufacturing. The biggest advancement in this business has been the technological improvements to the machines that produce the customer's parts. I'm having trouble implementing fastlane ideas and framework to really make a difference in the company I work for. The way material and components are purchased has been the same for a long time. The way the work flow functions has been the same for a long time. The process of acquiring new business has been the same for a long time. Besides new software the company recently implemented to improve job costing and inventory control, we do things old school. As one of two twenty-something year olds in the position to have direct communication with upper management, I feel I have the opportunity to shake things up and help grow the company.
I'm stuck on how to create rapid growth and profitability...to really make a difference. How do fastlane ideas apply to a business that has been around since the 1800's?
