Lean Initiative Fires Up Customer Satisfaction for American Water Heater. Join Rick Shuppert, VP Materials and Distribution for American Water Heater Co. in a Manufacturing Business Technology Webinar to hear how American Water Heater warmed up to its customers by reducing inventory, increasing on-time deliveries, and squeezing out operations expenses. American Water Heater Co. is making a habit out of collecting Supplier of the Year awards from its best customers. And it can attribute that recognition to the way it works with its own suppliers. A pull-based inventory system based on technology from Ultriva, Microsoft, and Hewlett-Packard and supported by processes that constantly exchange real-time information with suppliers-allowed American Water Heater to grow much faster than the competition, even while increasing inventory turns by 20 percent. What's more, on-time delivery is hitting 99.5 percent-a number that obviously means happier customers. Ultriva helps firms make the move to Lean manufacturing in practical, incremental steps.
