The main objective of the national project "Labor Productivity" is to ensure the growth of labor productivity at medium and large enterprises of the basic non-primary sectors of the Russian economy by at least 5% per year by 2024 through the introduction of lean production technologies. Targeted support to Novosibirsk enterprises within the national project is provided by the Regional Competence Center in the field of labor productivity, created based on the Investment Development Agency of the Novosibirsk Region (IDA NSO).

In the Novosibirsk Region, 54 enterprises have already joined the national project “Labor Productivity”. Now our company "Vega-Absolute" is among them!

On March 15, a kick-off meeting was held at the site of the enterprise in Novosibirsk. The company's goal is to annually increase productivity by at least 5% during the national project.

The company's goals in the pilot stream for 6 months:

-          Increase production

-          Reduce process time

-          Reduce work in progress

“We are not new to the topic of Lean Production: these tools have been introduced at the enterprise for several years, but it is never too late to learn new things and improve something. We will run the project in the telemetry direction, and then we will replicate the success for the entire enterprise,” says Dmitry Krasnikov, Deputy General Director of Vega-Absolute LLC.

Now the project team is being trained in the basics of lean manufacturing, goal decomposition, the 5C system and other topics. Then, diagnostics of production on the pilot stream will begin, then a reference site will be selected and reserves for optimization will be identified.

“The enterprises will work with specialists in the following areas: optimization of flows and processes, decomposition of goals, change management, they will conduct trainings related to team building, involvement, motivation of employees. Six months later, the company defends the Lean Production at the Enterprise project, after which it takes 2.5 years to apply the experience gained on other production lines,” says Kamilla Volosskaya, head of the Regional Competence Center of the IDA NSO.
