Factory diagnosis
At the shop floor, there are issues that cannot be solved by your own company alone for various reasons.
“Factory diagnosis” is conducted by shop floor improvement consultant to actually visit the factory, find “seeds of improvement” in a concrete way, instead of “finding fault” like a critic, and grasp what points are important for improvement activities together with the customer and share it with each other.
