Communicating key indicators of Magellan Aerospace performance to promote transparency & engagement
The importance of Lean, and utilization of Lean tools is important in all Magellan Aerospace programs to increase efficiency and eliminate wastes. Due to the changing environment which aerospace manufacturing operates within, key metrics, expectations, performance and warnings are continuously monitored to ensure program success.
Throughout this tour, guests will learn about Magellan Aerospace's critical visual management techniques which ensure success in both legacy and new programs. With communication as the cornerstone of Magellan's visual management design, information is kept current and disseminated to relevant employees. Expect to visit Magellan's mobile performance boards, floor markings, tool shadowboards and much more as a part of this At a Glance: Visual Management tour.
