THE COMPANY

WHO WE ARE

BUSINESS ELEMENTS specializes in improving business operations through internationally recognized methodologies such as Lean and Six Sigma, in order to help a company to:

We provide reengineering services in order for our customers to improve their operations and increase their competitiveness. We help them find solutions and use modern methodologies regarding their business activities.

We adapt and apply the most modern methodology for the design and organization of the production process, lean manufacturing, resulting in increased productivity of production units.

We have created LEAN FACTORY, an innovative production management software based in lean methodology which provides the ability to manage and calculate the capacity of production units with distinct phases of processing and assembly.

Vision

Our vision is to support our customers in the implementation of innovative organizational practices and to participate in the lean transformation of their production units, having as main purpose the enhancing of their competitiveness.

WHAT WE DO

We improve business operations

We analyze corporate activities and propose traditional or innovative solutions for the reorganization of business operations. We implement software projects, such as ERP systems, or specialized computer applications. We design Management Systems (Quality, Information Security, etc.) according to ISO standards.

We measure performance

We implement cost measurement and analysis projects, which is essential information for documented decision making. We calculate the production capacity and improve margins using the OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) indicator.

We increase productivity and design new production units with lean methodology

We increase productivity by using the tools of lean methodology, in order to reduce waste and eliminate not added value work. We design production systems and factory floor plans to meet the specified capacity needs in the best way.

We provide an innovative production management software

We have created an innovative production management software, following the theory of lean methodology, with the following features:

Items management based on their production and commercial characteristics
Production flows approach, instead of production and consumption of semi-finished products
Real-time visualization of the processing phases implemented
Production management, with production, assembly and shipment orders
Calculation of necessary resources for the implementation of orders
Traceability
