Leveraging PS56s’ expertise in simulation allowed us to validate assumptions and make design improvements in the design phase, rather than having to make costly respective modifications post commissioning. Looking forward to future projects – Thanks for your efforts,Read more “Croda”
The assessment PS56 made of our production line has proved to be very useful and informative. Using the model to test various changes and seeing the impact before making the investment has helped us enormously, we will definitely be implementing the recommendations made by the team atRead more “Norvik”
Production Support 56 were brought in late to the project and quickly produced an accurate simulation of our design which was run with the client historic production data. They proved the design met all our clients’ requirements and helped us optimise and removed significant costs. The client loved the model demonstration and subsequent what-ifRead more “Allied protek”
The model can also be enhanced to provide further insights with regards to other costs and how proposed changes would impact the current setup.
Computer Modelling is a valuable tool, not usually available to smaller businesses, and generally quite misunderstood. Mike & James made gathering the data simple and easy. They are friendly and are genuinely interested in assisting companies to add value. The project was a real joy to work with, it has left us with a lot of ideas. We hope to work with them again in the future.
The process was extremely well organised, it happened in a timely manner and they produced legible, fact based results.
I would highly recommend the PS56 team and look forward to working with them on more projects in the future.
The course was delivered very precisely with great enthusiasm and fun team working exercises which helped to demonstrate some of the trickier concepts of variation and inconsistency and how these can be improved using Lean and Six Sigma tools
