Manufacturing stock savings - £10,000 saved annually

One of my clients is a small Manufacturing company in Bedfordshire. When I first started working with the client there was minimal ways of recording direct tooling costs. It was expected that the high cost of tooling was borne because of the material being machined. We created for the client a Spreadsheet which recorded the number of tools used each period and multiplied this by the cost of each tool. This is then used against the number of parts produced for comparison. This solved two issues: 1) Accounting requirements at Year end were kept up to date with accurate stock takes with costing which streamlined the process 2) Usage during the week can be tracked and put against how many parts were created. By working with Elite we found some of the material should have been rejected due to hardness. We also found tooling was being scrapped too soon by employees. This change resulted in over 50% of the direct tooling cost being saved.
