Initial Situation
Being able to respond to clients and the market by following its fluctuations, improving plant performance, and developing employee skills: these were the objectives that prompted Saleri to undergo a Lean Transformation. The needs of customers should be met in the best possible way.
Growth is built on investment. In order to be sustainable, growth must go through the recovery of efficiency: Lean principles are the foundation that this outcome is built on.
