    About this ebook

    Production is a lively cultural process with its own rules and structures.
    In order to understand production correctly, it must be learnt and experienced.
    Not in the lecture hall – but on the shopfloor!

    Like every other discipline, the production too is a field of enterprise with its own rules and structures. Comparable with a kitchen. It gives recipes and in-gredients, pots and other utensils, which the cook can use to create a symposium of a treat. A top cook learns the hard craft over several years; despite that the taste is not of the same quality for every cook.
    An example for this: A champion cook writes a cookery book, wherein he lists and describes the ingredients, mentions exact quantities and discloses his very precise recipe, so that just about everything is explained and described. Do you really believe that it tastes as good if it is cooked by someone else? Perhaps, however, it will always taste differently and never the same.
    To the question, as to why this is so, there can only be one explanation:

    „Not everyone can cook!“

    And that is how it is also with the production. Production must be understood.
    Whosoever thinks that he has learnt production in the university makes a mistake. Production is learnt on the shopfloor, starting from scratch. On the production line and not in the lecture hall.
    And one thing is certain: Production is more complex than one thinks.

      Financial Knowledge Is Power Only If You Apply It

      THE 5 RULES OF PRODUCTION

      Rule 1 Management is a matter of culture – Provide a culture, which not only allows a continuous and durable improvement but also promotes and demands it.

      Rule 2 Move processes – Processes bring definition in to your organisation, if these are clearly described and measurable. If processes are measurable, then your organisation is measurable.

      Rule 3 Characteristic numbers show the path – through reproducible results the potentials are indicated, which must be used in order to survive in the market and in order to develop oneself further.

      Rule 4 With system and method on to the objective-Structured procedures can be reproduced and they are significant. Use tested methods consistently in order to intercept problems effectively.

      Rule 5 Customers and Suppliers – together we are strong! – A partnership has many advantages. Through professional behavior win the confidence of the customer. To strive for a partnership is a significant objective. It is profitable for both the parties!

      Rule 1- MANAGEMENT IS A MATTER OF CULTURE!

      Inclusion of all the colleagues

      GOK – Together Open and Consistent

      Team oriented

      To encourage colleagues and to make demands on them

      Praise and criticism is necessary

      Culture is always experienced from top downwards

      Solving a problem is a matter of culture

      Inclusion of all the colleagues

      Whosoever believes that he knows everything better makes a mistake! Especially when we are dealing with organizations. Unutilized potentials, which are slumbering on the shopfloors, must be woken up and used in a manner, which is profitable for the undertaking. Ask your colleagues, and they will thank you for it. Everyone wants to be a part of the success story and nothing motivates better than success. Use this chance to become more successful with the team.

      No one knows more about the respective place of work than that or those worker(s), who are active there for 8 hours or more, day after day. A machine operator, who stands next to ‘his’ machine every day, immediately hears the changed sounds, which nobody else registers. These are enormously important, since these noises mostly signal negative changes of the condition of the machine and with high probability there is something in disorder. He knows the machine, the plant or the appliance. He immediately recognizes every change. Similarly the colleague knows the defect, which disturbs him every day, or prevents him from reaching his goal. Which faults the plant or the machine has. Which improvements he would like to have, and where the ‘shoe’ pinches the most. He wants only to be asked. He does not come up on his own, since he fears that he would appear or be perceived as bothersome or as unpleasant. To feel to be taken along and to be integrated as a part of the team, namely to feel as belonging to the team, is motivating and inspiring

      The colleagues cannot be motivated. However, an environment can be created, wherein the colleagues feel well and which offers them the possibility to motivate themselves.

      A suggestion system in the factory helps in the integration of all the colleagues to collect ideas and to use the
