An Approach to Improving Customer on-Time Delivery Against the Original Promise Date

Abstract: One of the main challenges that a low-volume high-variety (LVHV) product manufacturing industry faces is to improve customer ontime delivery (OTD) against the original promised date (OPD) in a make-to-order (MTO) situation. A systematic root-cause analysis is carried out in the LVHV industry to find the true root cause and eliminate it. This paper proposes a methodology that incorporates the lean thinking methodology, a lean live tracking (LLT) tool, and cross-functional team (CFT) approaches to improve OTD. T… Show more

“…Cycle time, lead time, just-in-time, set-up time, delivery time and processing time are considered vital elements to boost productivity in the manufacturing sector (Andrade et al, 2015;Bhamu & Singh Sangwan, 2014). Ramachandran and Neelakrishnan (2017) pointed out that improving customer on-time delivery against the original promise date is crucial in the manufacturing industry. Thus, time is chosen as one of the criteria in this study.…”

“…Lean manufacturing (LM) is an approved manufacturing concept that reduces the time between a customer's order and product build-to-shipment by reducing waste causes [Ramachandran & Neelakrishnan, 2017]. However, challenges include lack of awareness of appropriate lean technologies and people's attitudes [Ramachandran & Neelakrishnan, 2017]. To achieve continuous improvement, all functional units and systems must be evaluated.…”
