Major Challenges for the company
Short lead time, flexible response to customer requests
It is expected that customer demand for high-mix low-volume production will continue to increase, and it is essential to establish a production system that can flexibly respond to customer demand. Up to now, we have been able to respond to sudden orders, changes in orders, etc. individually by making use of our expertise, etc., but there is a limit to how much we can process manually.
For further customer satisfaction, it is necessary to analyze the preliminary results of the production plans accumulated so far, embed the individually accumulated know-how in the system, and constantly be able to respond to changes in customer requests.
Further quality assurance and improvement of traceability
In order to meet the high level of quality assurance required in the industry, we believe that achieving further traceability will earn further customer trust.
