In a recent issue of Ag Innovator magazine, consultant Steve Wilson wrote this:

“I have had opportunities to see inside many of the country’s manufacturing operations, each of them striving to differentiate themselves from competitors. In plants doing the best in their respective industries, I consistently see the systematic implementation of Lean, Six Sigma, or some other form of continuous improvement as a beginning point. These tools mature to the point of enterprise-wide deployment. Everyone engages—front line, back line, front office, back office, everyone.

“As these operational excellence methods have gained widespread use, their potential to be a factor for differentiation has diminished. I believe, however, that significant opportunity still exists, and the defining factor in success is readiness.”

Wilson wrote about readiness in the summer 2020 issue of the magazine, which you can find at . Look for the magazine cover featuring Orlando.

Wilson also spoke about readiness during a webinar the Association hosted in March. Find the replay at . The password to access the webinar is in the introductory text.

Finally, Wilson will join members at the Marketing & Distribution Convention in Oklahoma City in November. This will be among five appearances he makes to take a deeper dive into operational excellence. Please join us.
