Efficiency
Looking at projects with a new perspective also requires increasing efficiency and value. Using the Integrated Finishing Services™ philosophy, we can not only provide a solution to your challenge, but also enhance efficiency. The biggest benefit Lincoln Industries brings to companies is the reduction in suppliers. Rather than having to coordinate and communicate with multiple suppliers and sub-suppliers, Lincoln Industries manages the entire supply chain. Our expertise in managing complex projects of finishing-intensive products allows us to manage these relationships rather than our customers. This frees up their time to manage other projects.
Improving the parts per million (PPM), or the number of defective parts received per a million parts shipped, is a key measurement in today’s competitive environment. At Lincoln Industries, we measure PPM for all of our key customers. This increases your efficiency with reduced quality issues that cause re-work, downtime, scrap and warranty claims.
Early integration with Lincoln Industries on designing new products also improves efficiency. Because we have the experience and expertise in metal finishing, we can aid in designing products and efficient manufacturing processes that will result in the most value for the product. Many times, the manufacturing process is considered first, usually at the expense of the finishing process. If the finishing process is not taken into consideration during the design phase, costly expenses such as re-design of a product can occur. Working with us during the design stage ensures this won't happen.
