Case studies

Mining is notoriously driven by volume targets, which in the Lean Operating System, can present ongoing challenges (due to the waste of over-production).

From pit to port, from drill to blast, GENEO has helped mining organisations to transform their processes and empower people to own the required change.

Our experience in Operations, Maintenance, Engineering, Supply and Human Resources has helped organisations like yours to adapt to a lean environment.

GENEO’s expertise in the automotive industry is extensive, thanks to the ex-Toyota employees in our team.

Through hands-on experience transforming projects into successes, our lean consultants are able to bring about change and reduced costs along the full line, including Paint, Manufacturing, Weld, Logistics, Engineering, Assembly.

Our Lean Consultation team has experience throughout the MRO industry across three continents.

From planning and engineering to maintenance on the line and repair in the hangar; improving the value stream has been achieved by reviewing the flow from top to bottom – including reducing inventory and material holdings, shortening turnaround times for assets, and better margins.

Our TPM programme has helped to reduce maintenance and operating costs for clients by up to 25 percent.

GENEO’s approach helps clients to reduce their maintenance burden through our rationalisation programme and turn planned maintenance activities into effective work standards for use in the workplace.

Logistics are often an afterthought for many businesses, whereas the Lean methodology for success has shown that putting Logistics first in the value system can often transform a company.

Putting Lean Logistical Practices in place can help to improve line stops, inventory turns, materials management, and work-in-progress.

Our lean consultants have repeatedly helped companies move from just-in-case inventory management to dynamic pull systems with levelled production and Kanban systems suited to their environment.
