AME Fall Boston Conference to Feature e-Kanban Presentation by Datacraft Solutions' Marotta

According to Matthew Marotta, President of Datacraft Solutions,
"If American manufacturers labor costs were free, administrative
costs would still make them the high cost competitor." Joining
Marotta at the AME Boston 2005 Annual Conference is Kevin
Sumstine, former director of Corporate Purchasing, Planning, and
Logistics for dj Orthopedics. The two Lean manufacturing leaders
will address, "Best of Breed Lean Electronic Supply Chain Best
Practices." 

This presentation will highlight the latest technology for
utilizing electronic kanban within the factory floor as well as
with customers and suppliers. Electronic kanban systems combined
with unique scheduling tools, dramatically reduces inventory
levels, increases turns, enhances supplier/customer
relationships and improves the accuracy of manufacturing
schedules. This presentation focuses on implementations of these
systems at a number of lean and non-lean companies and will show
the dramatic results obtained.
