The first implementation step of our holistic analysis of a facility is a Competitiveness Review (CR). A CR is an overall, comprehensive look at all processes in a manufacturing operation, including the shop floor and the administrative office functions. The CR is a nationally recognized assessment tool that provides an on-site, systematic evaluation of a manufacturer's operations - measuring performance against globally competitive criteria. It helps manufacturers pinpoint what, if any, services they may need in order to grow their businesses. SCMEP then provides the appropriate service from its wide range of offered services.

If you would like to schedule a no-cost Competitiveness Review, please contact the SCMEP manufacturing specialist in your area.
