Production Process Reengineering Of Company C Based On Lean Production

While the booming development of furniture manufacturing industry, problems reveal gradually. Most furniture manufacturing company in China are small and medium sized company in private, and their development has an important influence on the development of the furniture industry. This article is based on a problem which a small and medium sized furniture manufacturing company in private-company C confronted, launching Business Process Reengineering, that with practical significance.Rapid changes in market demand and fierce competition, making company C faces dilemma in management that production margins being squeezed, and forced to seek development through production and transformation. Through SWOT analysis, the problem of company C’s production is particularly serious, and long production cycle is company C’s fatal weakness. In this paper, we use Value Stream Mapping analyze company C’s production processes, and find out waste and irrational production workshop, production logistics confusion and other problems. By analyzing internal and external factors for the necessity of company C’s BPR, we consider that only through BPR could C truly get out of the current predicament. Taking into account of C’s actual situation of small size, limited resources and capital to withstand the range of conditions, we choose reengineering for their production processes based on the ideas and methods of lean production, when carrying out process reengineering, proposing ideas and solutions of BPR, which has been implemented in company C, and the results show that, implementing reengineering of C’s production processes based on lean production is feasible, and the desired results has been achieved.Through the production process reengineering, not only to solve the C’s current production problems, eliminating waste in the production process, rational distributing the production workshop, shorten the distance of people walk and material handling, optimizing the production logistics, shorten the production cycle improving production efficiency, reducing production costs, but also find bottlenecks in production processes and issues that need attention, providing direction for company C’s continuous improvement.
