Lean principles & continuous improvement

Productoo solutions follow lean principles and help automotive suppliers to set out on the path of continuous improvement. You don't need to implement the full scope of the ecosystem. Start with the functionality that fits your current processes (whether it is related to production planning, execution or e.g. internal logistics), and add new modules and features gradually to improve and further standardize your processes.

No process reengineering

We are familiar with most of the processes that automotive manufacturers use. Moreover, our solutions are flexible and highly customizable and can be adjusted to fit multiple production strategies. Therefore, in most cases, there is no need for process reengineering. The software will adapt to you.
