The changes over the past 15 years have been severe and the confusion over how to conduct business in these uncertain times has prevented many moldmaking businesses from evolving to counteract those challenges. But change can be managed effectively—even now. Small- and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) have options and resources available to effect the changes necessary to compete.

At the same time, lean may be one of the most valuable and misunderstood techniques available to SMMs because lean is not a technique at all. Lean must be endemic in a business to be effective. But its benefits to any business—when adopted wholly and correctly—are indisputable. The focus on driving waste from the processes to deliver greater value is in itself the perfect antidote to the rapidly shifting business conditions we’re seeing in manufacturing.

  Lean accounting is an important foundation for successful lean adoption.Steven an experienced manufacturing professional and lean proponent, has let first-rate mold solution co, ltd successfully adopt these principles and profit from them. As Steven said,” adopt lean accounting “… and you will have a lot of money in the bank. Chase after some convoluted concept of theoretical book profits based on matching principles and fully absorbed overhead inventory valuations and you will find yourself standing hat in hand in some bankers office begging for help, or hiring lawyers to file your bankruptcy petition.”

  Several initiatives are available to offer assistance to SMMs to retrain, redirect and redefine their businesses to compete more effectively. The Manufacturing Extension Partnership Network, the National Innovation Marketplace, the Manufacturing Technology Small Business Development Centers, Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms, and other federal, state, academic and privately sponsored programs are in place to assist SMMs in repositioning and redirecting their businesses.

  Recent surveys of china manufacturing buyers and OEMs show that one third experience serious supply chain disruptions that cause them to seek last minute solutions. Supplier or quality failures within an extended supply chain—often in low-cost countries—are causing more companies to reconsider those original strategies. Some have announced plans to repatriate production back to North America.

  It’s incumbent upon SMMs to seize this momentum as sourcing professionals reassess their supplier options.he has worked in and built several manufacturing businesses. As an experienced designer, programmer, inventor, machinist, entrepreneur and technologist, Ben has seen both sides of the fence as a supplier of custom machined parts/assemblies, and as a buyer of those same products/services.

  Within this mix, changes in how businesses communicate and research have dramatically changed how your prospects and customers find, engage and interact with you. While my role at this session will be to moderate the panel and interactive discussions with the audience,

  I’ll also look to interject elements of the evolving sales, marketing and communications channels as they relate to SMMs—and how to get value from them.
