Manufacturing Industry Success Stories Case Study: Domestic Manufacturer Successfully Competing with Offshore Competition Case Study: Manufacturer Achieving "Impossible" Improvements Case Study: Closing The Sale - Not Just Price Case Study: Overcoming Raw Material Variability Saves Millions of Dollars Other Manufacturing Industry Success Stories BASF Corporation - A very competitive marketplace prompted a BASF unit in Freeport, Texas, to improve operations and reduce costs. Using MVT®, this plant achieved major process improvements, increasing production and improving yields with no capital investments. Manufacturing savings amounted to $600,000 per year while BASF managed to avoid a potential $750,000 capital expenditure. International Specialty Products (ISP) - With a million-dollar market opportunity on the line, ISP focused on MVT® methods to improve measurement systems and reduce variation for one of its key products. Pactiv - Having used MVT® to markedly improve its manufacturing process, Pactiv hoped to use the methodology to improve sales. After only three months, Pactiv had more than 120 new accounts worth millions of dollars. During the first year following the use of MVT®, Pactiv achieved more than eighteen percent in increased sales. Elo Touchsystems - Elo Touchsystems was suffering great losses in the conversion of raw materials into saleable flat and curved touch screens, with an estimated yield of only sixty-three percent. The company needed to improve their production effectiveness in order to participate in the explosive growth occurring in the industry. With the help of MVT®, Elo Touchsystems increased process yield to ninety-one percent, resulting in an $8 million per year improvement. Exide - One of Exide's manufacturing locations was experiencing only a ninety-percent yield on one of their products, creating a significant environmental issue as well as a costly problem for the company. MVT® raised yield to ninety-eight percent, resulting in a significant financial improvement for Exide.
