Process Improvement Services

Unlock the hidden potential of your food and beverage manufacturing facility with some help from our Process Improvement team. Our specialists have an in-depth understanding of Lean, Six Sigma, and Total Quality Management (TQM). Using these methodologies, alongside their real-world experience in food and beverage manufacturing, they work with your operations staff to identify production constraints and make tangible improvements that align with your company goals.

Process Assessment

Mallot Creek’s Process Assessment can be tailored to suit the needs of any food and beverage processing environment. Working toward data driven solutions, our team can adjust services to fit almost any budget and make recommendations that drive down production costs and increase efficiencies.

From your assessment you can expect the delivery of a comprehensive Improvement Plan that prioritizes your facility’s top productions constraints and recommends appropriate countermeasures. You may choose to implement these countermeasures with your team or enlist further help from MCG through a process improvement partnership contract.

In order to generate a comprehensive Improvement Plan, MCG may use some of the following tools:

  • Value Stream and/or Process Mapping
  • Time and Motion Studies
  • Spaghetti Diagrams
  • Product Routing Analysis
  • Pareto Analysis
  • Root-Cause Analysis
  • Regression and Correlation
  • Process Visualization and Equipment Layouts

Process Improvement Partnership

Our approach is simple: define processes and their constraints, measure the magnitude of those constraints, analyze them, improve them, and control the improvement. Approaching manufacturing problems in this standardized way ensures that the proper sequence of steps is taken – and ultimately that solutions are catered to the root causes of problems. Through MCG’s Process Improvement Partnership, our specialists work with your operations team to make changes to production that result in cost savings and increases to capacity. MCG’s team will see changes through to their implementation, prove the change achieved the agreed upon metric of success and help staff navigate the cultural transformation of continuous improvement.
