Magic happens when it&#8217;s right, but production is a money pit when it&#8217;s wrong. Regardless of the product being made, production is a potential minefield! There is both art and science in effective coordination\/integration of raw material, machinery, and staffing (there\u2019s people again). Planning, equipment, maintenance, quality, defects or not, call backs or not, par stocks and inventory management, waste, ergonomics, packaging, loading dock\/storage, shipment dates, and more are all potential nightmares on any given day.<br><br>The Miick wealth of knowledge and experience positively impacts ALL types of production efficiency of any segment in the world of work! We cut our teeth on one of the most complex and volatile manufacturing realms, the restaurant industry, from fine dining to quick service. Restaurants are at their core nothing more than a production plant with cycle time that\u2019s measured in minutes, not days or weeks. For this reason, our experience in restaurant production, focusing on concepts like \u201cjust in time,\u201d \u201czero defects,\u201d or LEAN, has uniquely prepared Miick to bring successful production solutions to all types of industry verticals. Restaurants experience all manufacturing issues every day, and systems developed by Miick maximize performance in them, and translate equally well to the whole, great world of work!<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-b37d4afa\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-b37d4afa\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-1e2e6362\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-e3145b63\"><div class=\"gb-inside-container\">\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LET&#8217;S START A CONVERSATION.<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>Take your business to new heights.

Ensuring that, as equipment is acquired and put into service, a proactive and\u00a0<em>comprehensive\u00a0<\/em>maintenance schedule is developed and followed is critical to efficient production processes. And, comprehensive, because if one machine or piece of equipment is down, it can affect the entire line. Repairs should be out of the ordinary, while maintenance is part of everyday operations.

As with maintenance, a comprehensive cleaning scheduled must be developed and followed. On the other hand, safety training and compliance is a daily responsibility of every employee.

than just the short-term fiscal performance of the business. Sure, cash flow will always be king. But leaders need to work with their financial teams to ensure sales, expense, and cash flow projections account for the ebbs and flows of business over longer periods of time. As well, supporting their teams and providing for their growth ensures a valuable ally in the long-term, successful business plan. Taking every opportunity to build the brand as part of the community, versus just the business itself, creates a loyal patronage that sustains growth.
