The product range covers both branded and sub-contract production. The Amersham manufacturing plant produced specialist nuclear imaging products; these then proliferated by size, number of vials per pack and language. As a consequence, production run lengths were constantly reducing, significantly impacting efficiency and output. The packing operation and packaging used were based around an inefficient single production cell with operators within this cell being responsible for product inspection, collation and checking of packaging materials, product packing and finished goods inspection. James Ross Consulting were asked to review the packing area processes, together with packaging formats used, and to define and implement improvements. ge.com
