Quick Changeover/Setup Reduction
Quick Changeover, or Setup Reduction, is a Lean Operations strategy aimed at minimizing the time it takes to switch from producing one product to another. By streamlining processes, organizing tools, and simplifying tasks, businesses can reduce downtime and increase productivity. This approach allows for more flexibility in production, enabling companies to respond quickly to customer demands and reduce waste. Essentially, it's about making the transition between jobs as efficient as possible, ensuring that resources are utilized effectively while maintaining quality and speeding up delivery times.
