If some of the operations in your organization do not go in your favor for many years, it is better to think it in another way and not think about it much. However, if your motive is to improve your existing processes and your middle management while making a record of these efforts as part of your ISO 9011 continual program, you are at the right place.
In this post, we will discuss why optimizing the existing product or process is important to get better results from your existing supplier processes. It will also help in Product Optimization Services as well.
Optimization in Design
Manufacturing composite products can be a little tricky in global procurement sourcing. The methods of various composite layers should be right for all properties in order to be optimal. We can use the following mentioned below techniques to perform product optimization services in design:
- Using the computer-aided designs (Inventor, AutoCAD, Solidworks, CAD, SketchUp)
- Analyzing cross-sections
- Rounding some corners in order to avoid stress concentration
- Thickness adjustment with manufacturing in mind
- Studying how to demold it without any issues
Optimization in Material
We all know that in order to know about some materials and we can recommend the ones you need for optimizing your business process or product:
- BOM(Bill of Material)
- Prepregs
- Proposing alternate materials
- Carbon fibers
- Basalt fibers
- Important Materials
- Resins
Optimization in Manufacturing Process
In order to improve the manufacturing process, we investigate the following things:
- Quality Assurance or Quality Control program in work
- Tools used in manufacturing equipment and processes
- Equipment used and replace it with new ones or modify the current ones
- Molds
- Methods used for improving the manufacturing processes
Optimization in Cost
Will it make sense to go further with the current project? Before that, you need to know about your costs and ROI. That we will consider in this section. These are the following most popular options among customers:
- Savings in labor costs
- Material Costing
- Full Business Case
- Savings on Waste Reductions
- Robots and Automation- implementation costs
Optimization in Product
Product optimization is crucial in all types of businesses. This helps in better profitability and enhance the CAGR of any organization. By this way, you can enhance your return on investment. For improving the optimization in the product used in manufacturing for your composite product, here are some of the techniques:
- Determining the actual properties of the product
- Proposing alternative designs
- Calculating all stress issues and various other engineering factors as well
- Using FEM/FEA
Conclusion
In this post, we have discussed why optimizing the existing product or process is important to get better results from your existing supplier processes. It will also help in Product Optimization Services as well. These are some of the optimizations global sourcing companies are preferring to use in their existing business processes. Therefore, see your current processes and optimize them according to your preferences. If you have any queries, feel free to contact us. Our consultants are always ready to help you out.
