Many manufacturing operators are struggling to keep labour costs in check from high purchasing costs to labour cost not been monitored or tracked. Business owners do not have the tools and are inefficient in the way they view labour costs. To control your labour costs means a better estimated quote and better cash flow in your operations.

How to identify and Control Your Labour Costs

There are many indicators that you can identify in your daily operations to improve your operations. Many manufacturing and fabricators ask the question, How do I reduce and control my labour costs?

Questions you can ask which will help you Reduce Labour Cost

• Are your estimates driven by excel?
• Not able to track or check quality control?
• Labour costs\time is not recorded or time is tracked on a job card by hand?
• Artisans spend to much time looking for drawings and correct stock?
• Jobs are over priced and we lose these jobs to our competitors?
• Artisans do not know what the next operation is?

Are Your Estimates Driven By Excel

Many manufacturing operations currently use excel to drive their quotes or estimates. Excel with all it’s pro’s has many con’s, broken links and subject to many typo’s. Many business owners notice that they have high labour costs but the costs are not recovered properly, this can be due to the fact when compiling an estimate the artisan or foreman has forgotten to add labour items to the quote.

To reduce the risk of incorrect quotes, a manufacturing operation must consider an ERP integrated solution, which is driven by an accounting system with templates and correct pricing, giving quick turnaround and consistent quotes every time.

Not Able To Track or Check Quality Control

Many business owners and workshop managers struggle with tracking jobs and their statuses, this leads to time wasted hunting down jobs and ascertaining their status costing time and labour. Without a proper 4IR system in place keeping track of jobs and using tools to ensure business rules are kept, improving quality control and less Quality Inspection Rework, reducing labour costs and improving your underlining profit.

Labour Cost & Time Not Recorded or Recorded Manually By Hand

This approach is bad news for your operations not only are you not getting the correct time against estimates, with the manual process somebody is nominated as the Prefect and has to go and on a daily or even an hourly time basis go to each individual and make sure they are completing the time sheets and correctly. This way of doing things inherently adds unnecessary labour costs and you will not get an accurate activity based costing, which leads to poor recovery of costs.

Your also do not have the tools and information to estimate properly, which leads to either under quoted jobs or over estimates quotes and losing the job to your direct competition.

Artisans Spend To Much Time Looking For Drawings & Correct Stock

With a manual system artisans struggle to find or locate drawings, as there is no electronic link between jobs and drawings. This leads to costly delays and longer turnover of job delivery times.

Artisans are also running around hunting for stock items or do not know what stock is to be used against a specific job, with a manual system, no proper stock sheet is kept and picking slips are non existent, allowing for items to be allocated to multiple jobs, missing items and poor control of stock levels. This creates a bottle neck in the job process increasing labour costs and reducing productivity time.

Jobs Are Over Priced & We Lose These Jobs To Our Competitors

While we endeavor to get our quotes as accurate as possible we do struggle getting accurate and consistent quotes out to our customers with manual processes. One of our biggest headaches is, broken formulas and typos on excel spreadsheets. This leads to quotes going out wrong, and can be way to expensive to the customer and you lose the deal. Another reason business owners struggle with over priced estimates, is due to the fact that not only is your quoting manual, your costing has been run through a manual process so when estimating labour, you do not have an accurate idea of the true costs and therefore you generally either under estimate or over estimate.

Artisans do not know what the next operation is

How often do you sit back in your chair and ask yourself how productive your artisans are can you track productivity? Are they aware of all their duties planned for the day? Many business owners would say no to these two questions. Without a digital solution your artisan struggle to find their activities planned for the day and the associated documentation that belongs to that activity.

What is Just in Time (JIT)?

Just in time is a manufacturing concept workflow methodology aimed at reducing costs and delivery times within a manufacturing ecosystem for the procurement and distribution of materials.

One of the most successful implementation of this methodology was Toyota of Japan. They pioneered the concept from the early 1970s, which lead to customer demands been meet with minimal delays. The JIT concept did not only apply to materials but also personal and plant resources.

The main goal of the JIT concept is to minimize or have zero stock\inventories across the organisation and its supply chain. This method allows for the maximaisation of Return on Investment.

Because the JIT methodology was so successful with Japanese manufacturing entities, it is now used around the world.

Many of us do use procurement orders driven by the job

In a make-to-order, fabrication, service and repairs entities, you find many of your jobs have once off buy-outs linked to the job. This is due to you not keeping stock or this could be a non-stock item.

What are the advantages of Just In Time (JIT)?

• JIT can achieve better product quality through elimination of waste in production.
• The JIT approach can reduce the cost of inventories and inventory requirements.

What are the disadvantages of Just In Time (JIT)?

• The JIT system does not cope well with sudden changes to demand and supply.
• Implementing the system can be challenging and time-consuming and can be expensive to deploy.

Is Just in Time (JIT) right for my business?

If Just in time is applied correctly to your manufacturing operations, this will be a powerful concept to help you improve quality, turnaround times and cash-flow. But is it right for your business? Well most manufacturing entities do employ some kind of JIT with buy-outs driven by the actual job.

Most small to medium manufacturing operations use manual processes to drive jobs and this is where the chaotic workflow arises as there is no automation to employ better processes such as Just in time

How can Just-In-Time (JIT) JIT be applied successfully?

• Create a stabilized work schedule environment.
• Establish long-term supplier-customer relationships.
• Create a purchasing philosophy on supporting frequent small purchases.
• Encourage and ensure employee discipline.
• Identify value-added and non-value added items in shop floor activities.
• Ensure top management commitment for effectiveness and successful implementation.

A solution to help you deploy Just in time

With JobPRO you can create virtual job cards on a live up-to-date environment, with Purchase order integration to your ERP system we can create purchase orders driven by the job, employing the just in time philosophy.

]]> Post-Pandemic Rebuilding Process

Since the pandemic, the world as we see it will never be the same. Now post pandemic hard lockdown we are now forced into a new way of thinking, we have to plan differently and look at new opportunities and to rebuild your business after the shutdown. The old way of doing things can no longer keep your business a going concern.

---

Some of us are still reeling from the lockdown and have not yet seen the full extent of the damage to our business or have not done the research to see what effects the lockdown has done to the operation.

---

This then becomes a critical moment in the business where thought leadership needs to shine and to come up with genuine ideas to steer the business out of its current state it is in due to the pandemic.

---

This is especially true for South African manufacturing industries where businesses have had to defend on many fronts and not just the pandemic. From poor GDP growth to rising costs and poor leadership from the government. This all has had a huge toll on businesses in SA. There has to be a huge emphasis to rebuild your business after shutdown.

---

Now is the time

---

But are there ways we can get back lost customers? The simple answer to this is absolutely. Remember not doing anything to reclaim lost customers would mean you would have to do double the work to get new ones. Nurturing lost or currently customers is an excellent way of generating new business.

---

How can you do this? Cross sell products, offer better pricing, negotiate better payment terms for your customers and ultimately boost the quality of your services.

---

]]> Business Rules That Drive Alerts Keeping You Up To Date

In a world where customer satisfaction is paramount, it has become extremely important to get the basics right. Many Job shops and manufacturing companies fail to get this right and many of these challenges can be attributed to owners or foreman’s not knowing where jobs are on the shop floor.

---

Critical information is vital to the success of a business and businesses needs to know what critical information they require to achieve high quality workmanship and to meet deadlines agreed with the customer.

---

This can be especially difficult when many Manufacturing Job Shops run a manual process, which generally comprises of excel spread sheets and manual job card. A manual process in itself comes with disadvantages.

---

Job and Order Status

---

These disadvantages can define a business operation, where owners or foreman’s are unable to track the progress of a certain job. This leads to delivery times not meet “over promising and under delivering” which leads to lower customer satisfaction.

---

Technology can be a great disruptor in the Job Shop Manufacturing industry, as many businesses in this segment are currently using the manual process policy and a business that adopts technology will get a greater advantage over the competitors, by improving customer delivery times.

---

How can this be achieved?

---

Implementing technology will bring your business into the Fourth industrial revolution. Software like JobPRO Manufacturing will help job shops identify loopholes and shortcomings.

---

You will be able to track jobs visually with our software and we can setup alerts to cater for your preferred alerts scenario’s

---

Examples of different alerts the can be configured

---

Whatever critical scenarios that occur, having the right information at the right time can often be the difference between success and failure. It is also very important that the right people are updated to the progress of a job.

---

This is especially true of the different roles in the business, from receiving a query to quoting a customer usually falls under the sales department, and if there is a weakness or somebody has not followed up alerts can be sent up the management line. Alerts could be setup to cater for deals that have been quoted on, so that their is adequate alerts reminding the sales team to follow-up.

---

Identify and Remedy

---

The sooner a potential issue is recognised the sooner it can be resolved. Ultimately improving the turnaround cycle for a job.

---

Alerts can also be setup in the shop-floor process, reminders that jobs are outstanding at certain stages, waiting for parts or services or sub-contracting work.

---

Depending on the business rules of a business, alerts can be sent directly to the customer advising them the status of their order or job.

Challenges of Enforcing Business Processes

---

Nowadays companies are finding it harder to enforce business rules and process-flows, this is especially true of the make-to-order and manufacturing industries.

---

A lot of processes are manually driven from printed out job cards to excel spread sheets, this form of control inherently comes with its own challenges. Such as documentation going missing, forms not fully completed and typo’s from inputing info into excel spread sheets.

---

Companies also struggle with enforcing certain business rules, this usually comprises of, staff not following procedures, such as quote authorisations, not receiving purchase orders and not getting relevant internal management approvals.

---

Many companies in the manufacturing and make-to-order industries also fail to enforce rules when it comes to quoting. Correct pricing is not used, labour costs are omitted and in many cases quotes are not even sent off.

---

All companies want to utilise their resources, to get maximum profit from each job. This can be extremely difficult as we have discussed earlier in the blog, that their can be many shortfalls in the business process.

---

Manufacturing in a 4IR World

---

If a company is going to stay competitive in the 4IR world, then it must look to ways it can improve business rules and processes.

---

Many companies today have IT infrastructure, but may not utilise it to the maximum potential. A good example of this would be many companies have a pc and printer and connection to the internet plus software such as email and excel.

---

This setup does not cater for business process automation. Technology is a great way for manufacturing companies to solve challenges they experience in their environment, moving from a manual process to a digital process they has the ability to drive business processes.

---

The advantage of a digital business process automation is that several important tasks can be performed without requiring manual input. Business rules can be enforced and the correct process flows will be achieved.

---

Overview of Business Process Automation

BPM or Business process management software is used to boost profits and productivity as well reduce expenses through an automated business process.

---

There is a saying

If it is repetitive, then there must be zero errors

Consistent process followed

Business rules achieved

---

Example of a business process

---

An enquiry is received, it is then assessed, it then moves onto quoting, from their it is sent to a customer and the business will wait for approval before moving the job into production.

---

Another process can be work that needs to follow a certain process on the shop floor, for example – a cylinder needs work. It will start at the CNC machine from there it will need to go drilling and may need to go to the shop press for adjustments.

---

A lot of the time these business processes are not followed correctly due to human intervention., where steps are missed or rules not adhered to

---
