Manufacturing System


            
             Manufacturing processes vary greatly between different industries depending on the type of goods being produced. Companies that mass-produce high-volume products will focus on continuously cutting costs. For companies that produce special products that are unique to each customer, the challenge lies in reducing lead times in order to speed up the design-to-finished-product process. In between these two extremes, there are varieties of other manufacturing methods, including make to stock and standardized production that requires some degree of configuration for each order. IFS Manufacturing (IFS) provides the flexibility required to satisfy all your manufacturing needs.
             IFS is built entirely using modern technology, with readymade e-business solutions to rationalize collaboration with partners and suppliers. IFS enables step-by-step implementation. The most important applications are started first and the balance are done when the need arises. You can even do it in parallel at several plants. The projects are small and take very little time. This allows ease or incorporation of new units into the system.
             IFS's guiding principle is that work should be done correctly from the very beginning. They support quality control systems such as QS-9000 and Six Sigma. IFS integrates the quality control system with the manufacturing system, making it a natural part of the daily work. .
             If your company takes advantage of orderless and rate-based manufacturing, you will eliminate much of the administration associated with traditional production orders. At the same time, rescheduling is simplified considerably. Instead of the traditional "push" principal that MRP entails, you can achieve "pull" with the aid of Kanban (numeric machine control software). IFS supports the entire range of Kanban solutions, from manual Kanban with cards to fully electronic Kanban via the Internet.
             Cost reduction.
             IFS provides powerful support for analyzing where reductions can be made, Value Analysis, as well as support for administering and planning cost reduction programs.
