Productivity - Challenges
• Productivity has reduced as headcount has increased;
• YTD 2007 productivity is running at 61% (May was 58% and June & July were 55%) compared to 68% in 2006,
• Strategy in place for management restructuring to improve all areas of production
• Nearly 7,000 hours have been outsourced YTD – aim to increase to 50,000 annually
• Standard hours per week have averaged 7,605 – strategy to increase to 9,000 hours per week
Valuing Potential Opportunities
• The potential Group wide savings from opportunities in Mexico are valued at $5m made up as follows:– Productivity Factor to 70% $1.000m
– Steel Utilisation 80% (on target) $0.750m
– Overtime reduction 50% of current $0.500m
– Increased Group PPV from 1,000 extra hours per week$1.500m
– Additional 500 outsourced hours per week $0.750m
– E&O improvements$0.150m
– Other costs savings $0.350m
– TOTAL POTENTIAL GROUP WIDE$5.000M
Note: PPV is based on $30 per standard hour saving exclusive of landed factors for Europe and Australia.
KE Opportunities
• Main area of opportunity to improve Productivity;– Increase in productivity factor from 61% to the
70% budget target reducing the contribution variance currently running at a loss for the year $505k YTD which is pro rata $1m per year potential gain from current position;
– Improved steel utilisation using new laser and continued focus;
– Significant reduction in overtime which has cost $442k YTD;
– reduce hidden costs arising from inefficiencies;– Knowledge transfer and development of
engineering function in Mexico at a reduced cost compared to other sites providing quicker design to floor time and value engineering;
Other KE Opportunities
• Other areas outside production for opportunities:– Continue to drive commercial awareness in KE
Management Team and staff through the implementation of the Commercial Index;
– Sourcing opportunities to reduce cost / landing costs;– Continued improvement on E&O management;– Undertake cost reduction program to manage costs
outside production– Improved domestic sales which have significantly
higher margin than intercompany sales;– Implement standard installation charge per zone in
Mexico to McDonalds to improve service to McDonalds and reduce amount of work in KE;
– Implementation of the Norwood Small-wares project in Mexico.
Group Opportunities
• Potential to develop KE staff as a low cost base for carrying out functions for other Group companies:– Continue to develop engineering function in
Mexico at a reduced cost compared to other sites;
– Develop the Cost Accountant role in KE by recruiting a junior cost accountant in KE and then developing the cost accountant manager to undertake a week per month in Dallas so that KE’s costing and procedures are in sync with Group;
– Movement of some of Group functions to KE – high-volume routine transactions;
Future Approach to Maximise Opportunities and overcome Challenges
– What will change to ensure opportunities will be achieved;
• Invest in internal resources to maximise efficiency and drive performance;
• Doing fewer things better – not over burdening better staff;
• Working as a global operation to implement policies and improvements throughout the Group;
• Continue to maximise hours in low cost environment for Group wide benefit.
