Situation

A manufacturing site for a global medtech company identified inefficiencies in production lines and supply chain management. The site needed to equip leaders within those teams, who had both the knowledge and decision-making power, to lead or sponsor improvement projects.

These leaders needed to be trained and coached in Lean and Six Sigma without disrupting manufacturing operations.

Results

By the end of LaSalle Group’s engagement, leaders were equipped and enabled to drive continuous improvement activities in all areas of manufacturing operations.

Our team of expert-consultants with experience running medical device manufacturing helped our top global medical device manufacturing client save over $10MM in annual operational costs in one year in one site in just weeks.
