At our plant in
Sankili, several plant-related issues are addressed and
resolved through Cross-functional task forces (CFT)
Key issues are identified through group discussions
facilitated by trained members from within the team, grouped
and prioritized based on their impact on the business. As
the teams are cross-functional in nature, often new insights
are revealed, breaking several myths, enabling the teams to
come up with novel resolutions. Typical issues which are
being addressed by CFT’s are Energy savings, Cost reduction,
Improving manpower productivity, Loss reduction, etc. Well
established Quality Tools are used by the team to
systematically address and present issues.
Apart from finding innovative solutions to operational
issues, Cross Functional Taskforces build camaraderie and
team spirit and gives a sense of ownership and belonging
among the members. CFT’s have become a way of life at
Sankili and this practice would be replicated at other units
too. |
