Industries & operating environments

Operational excellence for complex manufacturing and MRO

Late deliveries, shared resources and work that changes do not all call for the same solution. Explore how Duggan applies flow design, education and implementation to the operating environment you lead.

A common method. A specific design.

What makes the Duggan approach different?

The starting point is the delivery problem. The design then connects the people, processes and information needed to resolve it.

End-to-end flow, designed before implementation

Product or service families, customer demand and operating capability shape how work moves between functions.

Visible normal and abnormal flow

People can see whether work is moving as designed and apply defined responses when it is not.

Capability that stays with your people

Education and hands-on implementation support help the organization run the system and give leaders more time for growth.

Industry, service or insight: where to start?

How do these pages relate to Duggan’s services?

Industry pages explain the operating context and relevant application. Service pages describe the work Duggan provides, such as Value Stream Design, Facility Design and MRO consulting.

What if our operation spans several industries?

Start with the flow that is under pressure. Shared-resource manufacturing, stationary assembly and maintenance can coexist within one organization; the scope can connect them.

Can we discuss a specific problem before selecting a service?

Yes. Describe the delivery issue, the work involved and the outcome you are seeking. The discussion can establish which service or combination is appropriate.

What an engagement can include

An engagement can combine operating design, employee education and implementation support. Deliverables and the involvement of Senior Associates or Operations Engineers are agreed around the operation and its capacity to implement change.
