Hello,
Has anyone noticed the predominant sloppiness and inability of suppliers to package "anything" properly? This subject/task has been overlooked by many, but I find it to be one of the most important steps in the manufacturing process.
This procedure is one of the first things that I teach a new hire, and I can't emphasize enough on how crucial it is to do properly. After proper packaging has been completed, a tracking # is emailed directly to the recipient, why don't most people do this?.
Example; one of the most common blunders material suppliers do is to ship me heavy steel bars that rattle through their box because of a lack of cushioning. More than 60% of packages sent to me are damaged and more than 10% never reach their destination.
