The engine that drives Unimacts is
manufacturing…the actual making of parts and assemblies in our
global network of low-cost-country factories. The factories in our
network have been identified, visited, evaluated, audited and
developed by Unimacts people.We understand their capabilities and
limitations, and endeavor to match each family of parts with a
factory that has the right technology, envelope and process “sweet
spot” for those parts.
But putting parts in capable factories in low-cost
countries is only a small part of what Unimacts does—once a solid,
competitive factory is identified, Unimacts works to continuously
improve the factory’s business systems. This continuous improvement
effort begins with a Unimacts assessment of the needs of the factory
and guides investment in technology, commercial processes,
manufacturing management, quality systems, and even in the factory
leadership team.
In addition to continuously developing our factories, Unimacts has
developed a set of supply management tools which link to those
factory systems to enhance the delivered value to Unimacts
customers. These links reside within the Unimacts Operating System
and enable clear, timely communication of what is going on at the
factory, with each project. |
