Strategies to handle Old & New Plants

My Strategies to handle Old Plant as well as New Plant establishment at the same time would be as follows:

1)    Sustenance & Improvement of the old plant is certainly a challenging task for any new top management professional. It requires mixed approaches of “Respect & Threat” through the deployment of a mutually agreed policy aiming at the “Survival & Growth” pattern. Such strategy varies with locations, educations, nature of business & Top management style.

2)   The old organization generally carries very old employees at the apex position and most of them are not capable & flexible for continual improvement. In such cases, we can deploy our respected PM policy as well. It means, we can keep them in the advisory committee for a few months and crystalize their past experience to form a modified SOP (Standard operating procedures).

3)    Some reduction & replacement will also take place for starting a new sigmoid curve of success.

4)    The selection of the new bunch will be based on dedication, positive attitude, Zeal to deal with challenges and not only qualification & specialization.

5)    Long term sustenance and continual improvements will be based on “TEAM QUALITY” only. So evaluation of the old team, segregation & inclusion of new members will be again challenging tasks for new management. It should be done very systematically, slowly but firmly.

6)    Even robots cannot work effectively & efficiently without real deployment & systematic review of policy & SOPs.

7)    New plant installation with entirely new technology shall require a well-experienced team with a combination of technical, commercial, World-Class manufacturing system experts, who has hands-on past experience. Lean manufacturing-based layout, TPM based shop management and display, Automatic data recording & Andon system, all processes with robust SOPs, etc.
