This document outlines the debrief from two rounds of operational changes focused on enhancing the folding process. Key discussions include strategies to add personnel, streamline the folding steps, and redefine job roles. Enhanced coordination between the production scheduler and kiter is recommended, along with consolidating inspection and rework processes. Additional recommendations include implementing point-of-use inspections and direct communication between sales and shipping, while ensuring the production schedule aligns with batch sizes.
