			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Smith’s Machine, we believe only a well informed team will perform well and only a planned and structured manufacturing process will lead to a high efficiency and to top notch quality results.</p>
<p>Our manufacturing is precisely scheduled and accurately defined in part quantities.</p>
<p>On a daily schedule, each of our machines is monitored for</p>
<ul>
<li>Utilized hours,</li>
<li>Process efficiency, and</li>
<li>Material utilization</li>
</ul>
<p>We analyze and communicate the achieved efficiency results of the machining centers as well as the manual driven work centers such as the assembly and forming departments.</p>
<p>In a team effort, opportunities for improvement are identified and made ready for an immediate implementation.</p>
<p>Of course, achieving and exceeding our goals are recognized and celebrated with our team members and their leaders in the same fashion.</p>
<p>Success in the manufacturing world requires synchronized work steps, from planning to a flawless work set-up condition through detailed oriented work performance.</p>
<p>Smith’s Machine is able to apply ‘lessons learned’ on a daily basis due to utilization of our proven processes including feed-back loops to our team.</p>
