WHY CYCLE TIME REDUCTION

Cycle Time Reduction is one of the most important elements of successful manufacturing and service sector
today. More and more customers are demanding that manufacturers and service industry quickly respond to their
wants and needs, deliver perfect quality products and services on time. This trend, which will continue, has led
companies to focus more attention on their order-to-delivery cycle time.
Order-to-delivery cycle time reduction is often a good place to start in the overall effort to improve operations
because it can often be done without heavy capital investment. Clearly, long cycle times cause high inventories,
higher cost, and poor customer service. As a result, many manufacturers and service industries are streamlining
internal and external operations to reduce overall order-to-cash cycle time. Some have even undertaken initiatives
to extensively redesign and streamline the entire process.
