Customer Case Study: Orbital ATK Proves the Merits of SyncKanban^®

This case study reviews the strategy and results of a new Lean project at the Aerospace Structures Division (ASD) of Orbital ATK. The goal of the project was to impact two key inventory metrics – improve inventory turns and reduce inventory cost; specifically, waste associated with material scrap.

• 30% WIP Inventory Reduction
• 90% Reduction in Scrap
• Consolidated 16 Replenishment Processes into SyncKanban^®

Customer Case Study: Dynisco

Today’s manufacturing eKanban software systems are not only equipped to manage highly complex environments, but provide a wealth of hidden benefits. Benefits that Dynisco, a leading materials testing and extrusion-control instrumentation manufacturer, realized after implementing SyncKanban^® software, an electronic manufacturing Kanban solution from Synchrono^®.

In upgrading from a manual to a manufacturing eKanban software system, Dynisco addressed 5 key business challenges and achieved significant reductions in inventory costs, lead times and more. What’s more, their 66-step manual manufacturing Kanban process to report inventory and supplier data was reduced to just 6 easy steps.
