Lean Maturity Model and eFPS Best Practices Exchange at Ford-Otosan Turkish Plants Last week I had the pleasure to spend three days with the Ford-Otosan team and Neil Wright in Gölcük, Yeniköy and Eskişehir VO and PTO plants. We participated in Control Centers (ZCC, MCC, DCC, PCC and BCC) sharing best practices and providing improvement recommendations. Additionally, we reviewed one by one all digitalization Lean tools (eFPS) looking for innovative ideas and synergies. The Ford-Otosan teams supported by IT are implementing very efficient management digital solutions. Great job!!!

El pasado jueves 21 de diciembre tuve el honor de participar en la asignatura Operational Excelence del último curso del Grado de Ingeniería y Gestión Empresarial en EDEM Escuela de Empresarios que imparte mi gran amigo Francisco Garcia Garcia. Ha sido una experiencia muy enriquecedora donde he compartido mis conocimientos en Lean Manufacturing adquiridos durante mi trayectoria profesional en Ford Motor Company. Muchas gracias a Marta Coscollar Damas por brindar esta oportunidad y enhorabuena por el gran trabajo que está haciendo.

Buckeye and Bluegrass Kentucky Bus Tour I had the honour and pleasure to be part of the Ford Motor Company Manufactring 2nd Bus Tour. We were a diverse group of more than 50 Ford colleagues traveling by bus to visit four key manufacturing plants in the southern Michigan and Kentucky area. It was a learning, coaching and exchanging intense exercise to identify and eliminating waste. This hands on and fully transparent activity clearly helps accelerate continuous improvement at the plants we visited, for us in the bus and our organizations now back home. Thank you Rima Jasser, Bryce Currie and all the other members in the bus for making this a reality. https://lnkd.in/eXsA_E9Z
