Listeners learn best practices for approaching and focusing manufacturers&rsquo; continuous improvement efforts.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Continuous Improvement is the third installment in the series, <em>The 5 Key Elements to Drive Flow<\/em> in which Maher reveals that the best people to address continuous improvement are those closest to the work; these people have the best insight into how to improve. The Continuous Improvement facilitators run the CI event and educate others on the tools needed for improvement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In previous episodes in the series, Maher addressed: controlling the release (Pull) of work into production and synchronizing activities across the organization to drive flow. Upcoming episodes will address synchronizing the extended supply chain and aligning metrics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Maher has more than 20 years&rsquo; experience working in manufacturing with expertise in ERP, MRP, APS, MES, supply chain, manufacturing planning and scheduling systems, and constraints management.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To listen to the complete podcast recording, go to: <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2dYHyZB\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/2dYHyZB<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>About Synchrono<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Synchrono (<a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.synchrono.com\/\">www.synchrono.com<\/a>) demand-driven manufacturing software synchronizes complex manufacturing environments in real-time, to drive business results.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For almost twenty years, Synchrono systems have helped discrete manufacturers, engineer-to-order manufacturers, and others manage constraints, improve flow and drive on-time production.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When integrated under the Synchrono Demand-Driven Manufacturing Platform, lean and demand-driven initiatives achieve new levels of excellence, transforming businesses by synchronizing people, processes, machines, materials, and data to drive production flow from order inception to delivery.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The award winning Synchrono Demand-Driven Manufacturing Platform offers five system components, including a planning, scheduling, and production management system and ekanban software for real-time inventory replenishment and supply chain collaboration.
