Kirari Co., Ltd. works to connect overseas engineers from universities in countries like the Philippines with small and medium manufacturing companies (SMMCs) in Japan to address staffing needs. They recruit highly skilled engineers aged 20-29 who are interested in Japan's manufacturing industry and provide training and support to help the engineers and SMMCs integrate successfully. This includes language training, cultural education, and workplace skills development. They focus on recruiting from the Philippines due to factors like the engineers' technical skills, English ability, and positive view of Japan, along with the Philippines' young workforce and unemployment challenges. The goal is to strengthen both the engineers and SMMCs through diversity and help the companies expand globally.
This document is a volume check of manufacturing supplies for 2008 that lists categories of parts, raw materials, and other materials sourced from import and local sources. It includes the quantity and monthly purchase amount in millions of pesos for each category. Notes at the bottom ask if there are any current kaizen activities and suggest rationalizing inventory.
This document outlines an effective inventory management system using various lean principles and techniques. It discusses implementing a kanban system using visual controls like color coding and location numbers to improve inventory tracking and turnover. The system aims to make nonconformities obvious and keep the process simple through principles of visibility, simplicity and awareness. It also notes using cycle counting, a delivery control board and database to monitor inventories. The goal is to introduce these mostly low-tech visual methods to enhance inventory accuracy and efficiency.
