In September 2001, Prof Washio Emeritus,KEIO Univ.Japan. visited our factory to study our operations and suggest quality and productivity improvements.

Professors visitProf Washio is the only individual in the world to have been awarded the Deming Award for Quality. He is the leading consultant for most of the major automobile manufacturers of the world.

On observation of our operations in the Gemba he has advised us on important areas like 5 S , Productivity improvements and implementation of Stastical Process Control.

His observations were:

"I recognised the morale of people is high. Then your product quality is quite good. One area to be focused will be Productivity Improvement.By introducing proper jigs/fixtures in the process, I think you can improve productivity. You can reach an excellent company in terms of quality and productivity."
