Strategic levers

For each individual lever KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are defined which set out the goals for the GMM sites.

The basis for achieving these strategic goals, and thus for the WCM method, is a continuous improvement process which is permanently installed at all sites. This process is put into practice on a daily basis by all employees and is supported by the highest management level.

Making use of potential for improvement

The realisation of identified potential improvements is achieved both by one-off and time-limited projects and by operational continuous measures.

Phase 1:
Immediately after a project has been completed, a capital investment undertaken or a workshop held (Phase 1), measures producing effective results must be implemented.

Phase 2:
On this basis, a continuous improvement process must then start up (Phase 2), in which on the one hand open points arising from Phase 1 are dealt with and on the other hand further new potential improvements are identified and implemented.
