John Linden Managing Director
RCR Tomlinson Ltd
"I want to let you know how pleased I am with the results of the project to date.
In
July this year your team presented a proposal to improve productivity
in our workshops by at least 15%. After 16 weeks of development and
implementation at our Welshpool and Wacol workshops we have achieved
productivity improvements of 25% over last year's base and this was
achieved on lower overall workloads.
We
now have a system that allows us to match our resources with the
workload demands and a system that integrates the functions of shop
floor, project management and engineering.
The training provided to our employees in the new system has been invaluable in providing the confidence to accept the changes.
Specifically,
we have seen a significant reduction in overtime and contractor hours
worked and in indirect unproductive time expended.
As
a result of these improvements the bottom line has improved
significantly and the additional cashflow generated will give a payback
for the project approximately 9-12 months.
I
would like to commend you on the selection of your team to assist us in
the project. They have been unwavering in their focus, drive and
dedication to the task and their positive energy has provided
intangible benefits for some of our senior management.
We all look forward to working with your team on the next two projects to extract even greater benefits for our shareholders."
