JIT 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.
