Real world studies show significant opportunity to improve performance for pharmaceutical and medical manufacturers
Do you want to know how your manufacturing efficiency compares to your peers? Find out how you can set goals to unlock capacity and reduce inventory and labor costs, while increasing productivity without additional capital investment.
Pharmaceutical & medical manufacturers gain competitive
advantages when they focus on operational excellence initiatives
like Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, Total Productive Maintenance
and other continuous improvement methods. Leading
manufacturers meet these goals by identifying and measuring key
performance indicators (KPIs) within and across facilities on an
ongoing basis.
Solarsoft studied 50 pharmaceutical manufacturing lines
worldwide using the Solarsoft Informance Enterprise Manufacturing
Intelligence Suite, and IMPACT Advisory Services to collect data,
derive insight and discover correlations to operational success of
tactical and strategic actions.
Key Findings
- Best-in-class pharmaceutical manufacturers exhibit 87% more
availability than laggard performers.
- Best-in-class performers reduce loss due to changeover at a
factor 4 times greater than laggards.
- Equipment failure is a significant contributor to lost
capacity; however best-in-class pharmaceutical manufacturers
attribute equipment failure at 7% of capacity, versus laggards that
experience a staggering 26% of capacity lost due to equipment
failure.
