The centroid can also be thought of as a point of concurrency.  Achieving optimum flow of value and operational excellence requires a Systems View: solutions and their implementation should be well-integrated and aligned with the other business functions as well as the overall business strategy of the organization.

Finally, at CCG, we believe that a respected workforce and a supportive culture are at the foundation, or center of mass, of all improvement efforts.  This concept is not new; Deming emphasized this (see RESPECT FOR EMPLOYEES), and “Leading with Respect” is one of the tenets of what is now known as Lean Manufacturing.

Our experience in employee development and analytical methods, together with our manufacturing process knowledge and factory intuition, enable us to partner with your teams to assess your operations problems, find the root cause, and develop focused, effective, and long-lasting solutions.
