OPTi stopped production shutdowns due to unreliable machinery

"This optimizing project led by Jan Sønderlyng was an exciting journey which ended
with great results and attracted the attention of our top management.
The number of production shutdowns were reduced – and with better utilization of
capacities we could delay investments.” " Kenneth Hüttel, Head of Technical Department, Coloplast

Documentation
Analysis of production shutdowns
and unreliable machinery.
Business case
It was necessary to develop a
new concept: Total efficiency of
equipment

Reduction in production costs
Year 1 = DKK 10 million
(USD 2 million, EUR 1.3 million)
Year 3 = DKK 38 million
(USD 7.6 million, EUR 5.1 million)

Implementation
The new method was implemen-
ted and savings realized.

New key performance indicators
were developed.

"OPTi experts come from outside
– they can ask critical questions:
Can this be done differently, smar-
ter, cheaper...?” PMC
"“OPTi’s ability to think out of
the box resulted in an optimal
solution, which no one saw
before.” Crisplant
