Churchill Associates (UK) Ltd - Consultancy Specialising in Lean Manufacturing Principles

Churchill Associates (UK) Ltd specialises in Lean Manufacturing principles and the development of systems to support Lean Manufacturing – in particular the supply and implementation of Preactor – the top selling scheduling system.

Lean Manufacturing Principles

  • Lean Manufacturing means manufacturing without WASTE. Typically, 70% - 80% of all available resources - Material, Time, Equipment idle, Inventory, People - is wasted.
  • Waste adds cost and complicates the tasks. Churchill Associates (UK) Ltd. will provide hands-on consultancy in the UK from highly experienced practitioners, in your factories, working directly with the 'do-ers' on the shop floor.
  • The successful application of Lean Manufacturing Principles will improve:
    Productivity - More for same effort
  • Quality - Lower or Zero Defects, Greater Reliability Effectiveness - Less resources for each operation Morale - Reduced mess and irritants Pride - In the Company and it's Products

    Preactor Implementation

  • Churchill Associates (UK) Ltd is a Preactor Consultancy Partner. We have been implementing Preactor scheduling solutions in all kinds of manufacturing companies for 10 years, and have helped planners and schedulers in a range of different environments to balance the conflicting demands of capacity and load.
  • Preactor is a uniquely flexible scheduling tool which is delivered with a wide range of powerful methods we have harnessed in connecting Preactor to other manufacturing systems.
    A carefully implemented Preactor system will provide a graphical display of the schedule, and allow the planner to maintain complete control of the schedule by using its drag and drop capabilities.
  • Our approach in interfacing Preactor to other systems enables it to manage the day-to-day chores of releasing orders when due and producing documentation, as well as keeping the ERP system up to date with the current schedule.
