Bluedog Fences Australia views Shinka Management as a trusted partner and a critical component of our journey toward manufacturing excellence.
Shinka Management’s consultancy services, together with their training programs and Lean Japan Tours, have played a key role in embedding a strong culture of continuous improvement within our organisation. Amid recent market volatility, our focus on quality enhancement, cost reduction, and lead-time improvement – driven by their guidance – has enabled us to thrive. Notably, advancements in material flow and our adoption of 5S methodologies have made significant and measurable contributions to our profitability.
The Shinka Management team has actively engaged with personnel at every level of our business, from senior executives to frontline operators. Their consultants leverage extensive practical experience to connect with and inspire our workforce, making lean manufacturing principles accessible and actionable. Moreover, their support is enriched by a wealth of resources, including photos, videos, and case studies originating from Japan and around the globe. These authentic, real-world examples have empowered our team to rethink and improve our manufacturing processes independently, enhancing both morale and operational efficiency.
Such has been the transformation on our shop floor that it now serves as a sales showroom for customers and visitors, reinforcing confidence in our brand and manufacturing capabilities. Bluedog Fences Australia’s substantial progress in our continuous improvement journey would not have been achievable without our valued partnership with Shinka Management.
