The promise of Industry 4.0 to create a world of seamless communication between machines, optimally efficient processes and unparalleled productivity is as appealing across industries as it is difficult to reach. Perfetti van Melle, however, is up to the task and is making that vision a reality with a keen sense of innovation and a history of excellence in manufacturing.
Koert van de Pest, Supply Chain and Operations Director Benelux at Perfetti van Melle, is one of the people charged with guiding the company to their lofty goal. One way he achieves this is through monitoring the efficiency of his manufacturing equipment with the help of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)-measurements as a performance indicator.
You are cordially invited to the Vision Dinner with Koert van de Pest. Koert will take you through how Perfetti van Melle harnesses the power of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) measurements to quantitatively assess production efficiency, make data-driven decisions, and achieve continuous improvement. He will furthermore tie OEE into their broader manufacturing strategy and share the lessons he learned during his work optimizing Perfetti van Melle’s manufacturing process at all levels of maturity.
After the presentation, there is the opportunity for an open discussion with Koert and the other participants. You are most welcome to join!
