Discover how GP approaches lean manufacturing and continuous improvement on this tour of its Collaboration and Support Center.
Overview
At GP’s Collaboration and Support Center (CSC), technology and artificial intelligence are used to identify asset health issues and resolve them in real-time. The information collected allows employees to build a data history and knowledge database, which can be shared to help make better-informed business decisions. This produces greater equipment efficiency and safer work environments for employees who do not have to approach machinery to identify problems. Through automation, innovation, and collaboration, the CSC provides a bird’s eye view into how GP approaches lean manufacturing and continuous improvement.
