KNOW THE OPPORTUNITY
Pronounced as the quality Six Sigma methodology fact, that “customers feel the variance and not an average” manifested itself on several occasions when our client failed to deliver its work on time and faced production losses due to timely unavailability of diaphragms supplies; further more increasing failure of the testing quality thresholds.
KNOW THE ANALYSIS & SOLUTION
Deep dive exposed that the supplier’s delivery cycle time was higher than the actual manufacturing cycle time and diaphragms excluded few key material pass and development quality checks.
Harkesh Rubber offered to develop one of the diaphragms for life – cycle test.
This meant, diaphragms should last its rendering, even after maximum million cycle tests.
KNOW THE BUSINESS VALUE IMPACT
With 2 weeks of comprehensive testing, Harkesh Rubber diaphragm retained its good shape at exceeding 1.2 million cycle tests while existing supplier relegated in the testing and warranted a replacement. Thus, Harkesh Rubber partnered to deliver the full range of diaphragms to the client.
Additionally, delivering 25% reduction in delivery cycle time in 20% lesser purchase cost as business value outcomes.
