MANN+HUMMEL Annual Report: Tackling root causes
Root canal treatments are painful. But necessary and effective. If you only fight the symptoms, you will fail in the long run. That's why we analyze problems in depth and eliminate the cause. Then it works. Permanently.
About Tiago de Oliveira
Tiago de Oliveira joined MANN+HUMMEL in March 2020 and is Lean Manager at our production plant in Gastonia - one of our largest filtration plants worldwide.
His goal is to reduce waste and optimize the material flow in the plant, so that we ultimately increase our efficiency and our customers always receive their products at the agreed time, in the right quality and at the optimal price. The continuous collection and analysis of data helps us to do this, and so does the close cooperation with our colleagues in production.
Together with his team, Tiago ensures that the lives of our employees in the plant and also in the offices are and remain carefree. Therefore, it is essential that his team understands all the processes and existing challenges in detail and knows how our products are used in their various applications. Only then can they know how to solve problems from the ground up so they don't happen again.
