The initial assessment process quantifies and qualifies value-added activity across your enterprise. We use tools such as Value Stream Mapping, Systematic Layout Planning, QMS Gap Analysis, and develop Performance Metrics to maximize operational throughput and improve bottom line results. We look at the front end of your business, identifying new business opportunities through our interactive Innovation Program, and we enhance your sales force’s effectiveness with a network of third party partners. In addition to addressing design and sales, the "front end" processes, we identify and solidify the business processes that are the foundation of your organization. With proven training and implementation methodologies, we incorporate Process Improvement and Cost Reduction methodologies, providing results that immediately impact your bottom line.

Enterprise-wide lean methodologies provide a customizable, measurable, and proven framework that transforms your company into a sustainable Lean Enterprise. Lean manufacturing is the foundation of a high-performance enterprise. Lean eliminates waste and provides manufacturers with the biggest opportunity for immediate bottom-line improvement.

Accurate and timely information is crucial to making proper business decisions. It goes without saying that the selection and timely implementation of an Information Business Software System, which gathers and reports this data, is also crucial. Beginning with the initial and crucial step of developing a strategy, Information Business Systems planning focuses on leveraging the technologies and resources that best match your business objectives. From selection and implementation, through re-engineering, if necessary, MassMEP provides a proven track record of helping companies make the best choices available for business decision software.

Compliance in Quality Management Systems standards is critical; in many industries, it is a requirement for doing business with your customers. Have you transformed your Quality management System into a competitive advantage? MassMEP provides a number of options that allow your company to become registered in any of the QMS standards.

MassMEP works with advanced Facility Layout Design Services that utilize the Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) approach developed by Dr. Richard Muther. This is a team-based systematic process that uses actual data to determine the most effective and efficient layout possible. SLP is recognized throughout the world as the most organized way to develop layout plans. The process is essential for those companies who must:

Add major new equipment or capacity
Rearrange for better material flow and throughput
Expand or consolidate facilities
Implement work cells and lean manufacturing
Implement new warehousing methods, processes, and systems
Rearrange teams or more effective office communications
