Delivery
Problem
Clients often found the necessity to change the product specifications because of some error and this required worked to be stopped on that product.
Internal factors like improper management and procurement policies for raw material requirements also introduced delays in the manufacturing process.
The problem is majorly because most of the shipments are dispatched towards the end of the month.
Recommendation
Hold an inventory of raw material to reduce the time an orders spends waiting for the purchase to happen.
Change the policy of shipping more in second fortnight of the month, make it more equally distributed. It may not be possible to stock all raw materials, but key items should be stocked.
Especially those related to the start of the manufacturing process
Changing Information Transmission
Recommendation
Keep the small and special order in cell
