Sample Plant

Aug 6

Packing kept up a fourth day despite its longest wait yet

Going well

It came on the day shift and stayed short enough that no order due to ship was held up.

What happenedPacking kept up with the presses for a fourth day, though its longest wait so far came on the day shift. That wait was 6 hours, still shorter than an eight-hour shift.
Why it mattersNo order due to ship has been held up at packing since the second table was set up.
How to keep it upKeep both packing tables running on all three shifts, so no part waits a full shift.
