LECTRA: Lectra holds Furniture and Automotive seminar in Bordeaux
20 12월 2013 - 2:02AM
Lectra, the world leader in integrated technology solutions
dedicated to industries using soft materials-fabrics, leather,
technical textiles and composite materials-recently hosted a 2-day
seminar on "Achieving Operational Excellence", at its
Bordeaux-Cestas campus in France, dedicated to decision-makers from
the automotive and furniture industries. Daniel Harari, Lectra's
CEO, welcomed guests and opened proceedings by explaining how the
economic crisis had been an opportunity for Lectra to rethink its
Business Model. During these 2 days, 42 representatives from 27
companies in Europe, North Africa, India, Asia and the Americas
were encouraged to share their experiences and best practices
throughout a series of presentations, workshops and demonstrations.
One of the recurring themes throughout the seminar was the benefit
of adopting lean methodology from design to manufacturing.
Pierre-Marie Gallois, affiliate professor at ESCP Europe (Paris)
presented Lean Beyond Lean explaining the need for fruitful
co-operation to achieve "Harmonious Agility", and create an
efficient working environment. "I really appreciated the content of
the presentations, as did the other participants I spoke to during
the event. The solutions presented by Lectra open up some very
interesting perspectives for us," says Mohamed Ali Saidi, Trim
& Foam Operations Manager, Lear Automotive Morocco. Lectra uses
the lean methodology when developing and producing its own hardware
and software solutions. Guests were able to see how this works for
Lectra during a guided visit of the industrial site. "We have been
working with Lectra for 30 years, and I welcome this opportunity to
discover the birthplace of the solutions we use every day. I was
very impressed by the application of lean manufacturing techniques
in the industrial unit that we saw during our visit," explains
Takashi Nishiwaki, Executive Director of the Japanese automotive
supplier Bonform. Participants were given more in-depth
presentations of Lectra's solutions for design and manufacturing,
as well as live demonstrations of Versalis® and Vector®, Lectra's
lean-compatible cutting room solutions for the automotive and
furniture industries. "Lectra has built the strongest offer on the
market, combining advanced technology, lean methodology and change
management," concludes Daniel Harari.
