Overview

TRANSFORMATION OF THE ENTIRE VALUE CHAIN

 
 

FROM LEAN VIA NEW WORK TO THE TRANSFORMATION OF VALUE CREATION

Starting with a lean implementation in production, Schaeffler Special Machinery has undergone a fundamental transformation of its processes, culture, and business models over the last few years. The outward sign of the change is a completely redesigned work environment intended to significantly improve collaboration and communication along the entire value stream. The New Work model has been proven to promote agility, efficiency and fun at work. And this is now impressively measurable: double-digit increases in output, high employee satisfaction and employer attractiveness show that investments were made in the right place.

Get to know the new way of working. Experience paperless working in the office and production, end-to-end store floor management and the opportunity to face the next transformation with the strength you have gained.
