Unique Product Offering

FCA offers a broad range of critical and highly customized industrial packaging that includes wood, steel, corrugated and hybrid products, as well as expendable, reusable and returnable solutions. One of FCA’s largest raw material components is engineered wood.  products manufactured from engineered wood are price-comparable to traditional lumber products while providing superior strength and shipping benefits, including compliance with the ISPM-15 standard.

Case Study – Cost Savings and Lead Time Reduction

We provide our customers with a comprehensive packaging solution that includes custom design, manufacturing, and management of specialized packaging products, with an intense focus on total value, just-in-time delivery, and customer service.

• FCA reduced customer lead time on orders from 72 hours to 16 hours, with a 4 hour lead time for urgent orders
• FCA reduced headcount requirement by 42%
• FCA saved customer an estimated 30% annually on its packaging costs
• FCA instituted a continuos improvement program to further drive costs out of the process

One international company previously utilized an internal carpentry shop to fulfill its wood packaging requirements. Due to insufficient equipment and a lack of production efficiency, this company faced excessive labor, waste and significant cost overages. Lead times for packaging orders averaged 72 hours.

In an effort to raise quality, lower overall costs for their packaging operation and reduce lead times on their orders, this company outsourced its entire wood packaging operation to FCA.  FCA brought the packaging in-house to an FCA facility and took over the complete sourcing and manufacture of the packaging function.

As a result of outsourcing its packaging function to FCA, this company was able to focus on its core manufacturing competencies while simultaneously reducing overall costs, increasing product quality, and improving lead time for their packaging products.  Because of their expertise and knowledge in the supply chain and the packaging material base, FCA was also able to appropriately source raw materials to minimize waste.

Case Study – Parts Supplier Consolidation

Customer consolidates inbound parts packaging to FCA and improves costs, quality and lead time.

• FCA improved the quality, accountability and consistency on incoming packaging
• FCA improved the lead time from three days to 24 hours for stock boxes, and 4 hours for emergency orders
• FCA lowered customer’s costs by providing production-level pricing for single unit orders
• FCA converted scrap corrugated material into sustainable packing and padding

Prior to engaging FCA, one customer with an international presence used multiple contract packagers to build parts boxes for its incoming supply network. Due to the high number of suppliers, this company experienced limited control over quality issues, little standardization in packaging design, and significant cost inefficiencies. Lead times averaged over 3 days.

In an effort to lower its costs, standardize its supply base, and gain greater quality control over its packaging supply, this large manufacturer consolidated its incoming parts box production to FCA. FCA took over the packaging and manufactures the majority of parts boxes in the supplier network. FCA also manages the packaging order process for much of the supplier base.

As a result of consolidating its supplier parts network, this customer was able to achieve higher accountability and consistency for all parts managed by FCA. Quality and consistency increased, and lead times were reduced. By offering this customer production-level pricing for single orders, FCA was also able to reduce this customer’s total cost.

Case Study – Recycled Packaging Program Savings

FCA's creation and management of a custom skid recycling program saves customer significant costs

• FCA defined a returnable process for packaging product in the field
• FCA saved this customer thousands of dollars annually in disposal costs
• FCA significantly reduced customer's purchasing costs by using the FCA-designed engineered wood skid

Prior to engaging FCA, one customer utilized engine skids from a supplier that were disposed of after a single use. Costs for disposal of the skids were shared by this company and their customer. With no defined returnable loop in their packaging process, this customer looked to reduce expenses by reducing material waste.

FCA was engaged to develop a solution that would limit waste while maintaining consistency and usability with the current packaging product. FCA designed a more durable engine skid using engineered wood and created a custom reverse logistics program to increase the product life of the skid in the field.

FCA now manages the logistics, inspection and maintenance of the recycled engine skids and saves the customer thousands of dollars in disposal costs alone. As a result of using FCA’s more durable skid designed from engineered wood, the customer also achieved significant savings in purchasing costs due to the reusable nature of the skid.

JIT (Just-In-Time) Package Manufacturing

The just‐in‐time, highly customized nature of FCA’s product offering requires unique and specialized production capabilities. While the basic structure of each custom product may have similarities, FCA’s design engineering department modifies designs to suit specific and ever-changing customer requirements to ensure products are securely positioned and protected.

To do so, FCA’s production facilities require a combination of highly flexible and easy to change automated sawing, drilling and assembly equipment as well as the skilled, trained labor required to produce in excess of three million packaging units with over 27,000 different part numbers (and growing) per year.  And, given our multiple manufacturing locations throughout the country, as well as our Customer Proximity and Co-Location plant model, FCA provides product orders in typically less than 24 hours, often in less than 4 hours where we are co-located with you.  We are where you are, and where you need us to be! 

FCA also values the lean enterprise.  With several Six Sigma black belts on staff, and key management with Lean and Six Sigma expertise, FCA implements and applies lean and Six Sigma principles throughout its manufacturing organization, resulting in greater efficiencies, less waste, improved quality, improved response time, and ultimately, lower costs to our customers.

Co-Location Capability

We are where you are, and where you need us to be!  At FCA, we offer a unique Customer Proximity and Co-Location Capability that provides scale, JIT delivery and rapid-response service to our customers.  FCA’s facilities are generally located less than 20 miles from customers on average, and most are co-located at a customer site or within a few miles of our customers’ key manufacturing facilities.  Many of the plants FCA serves receive multiple truckloads of custom packaging products per day – all delivered on an efficient, just‐in‐time basis.  Many customers are accustomed to order turnaround times of only 15 to 24 hours as they rely on FCA to provide the critical protective packaging to ship their end products.  In most cases, emergency orders are received, manufactured and delivered within 4 hours.

With multiple manufacturing facilities across the country, and several more planned and/or in construction, we are where you are, and where you need us to be!
