1. Background Company History
. • Founded 1986 as manufacturer of tow lines for water sports • Late 1980’s branched out into distribution of branded water recreational products • Began manufacturing wake and knee boards in 1993 • 1994 limited production of snow boards • 1995 full production of snow boards • Diminishing role of distribution of branded products
PRODUCTION FLOW • Batch shop • 75 unit lot size • Nov. - March production for water sports • Jan. - Sept. production for snow • Oct. - Feb. cross over production - new design marketing, special orders • 11 of 14 manufacturing steps are generic to snow or water boards • Rope production - year-round as needed (low volume, assembly)

3. Planning High Quality and Innovation
Research & Development • Cross-functional teams • Design by experimentation • Industry standards • Custom laboratory • Competitor review
Planning • Seasonality - year round manufacturing • New product every 6 months • Non-manufactured orders once a year
Order Fulfillment • Made to order • Pre-season / In-season • Weekly work chart • Push quality on suppliers
4. Quality SPC Team oriented Process oriented
SPC Procedures • Parado charts • Push SPC down to suppliers • Computer generated defect reports • Results measured daily • Strive for only 10% defects was 35%
Team Oriented • Daily meeting with leads about problems • Feedback taken from workers • Teams get incentive pay for quality • Each team the key to quality
Input into SPC database Bar Coded Materials Acceptance Testing Bar Coded Defects Pass Quality Pass Quality Quality Check each Location Completed Product Process Oriented • Bar coding of raw materials and defects • Acceptance testing at start of run • Written procedures at each location • Check quality at each stage • No formal QA group No No Yes Next Location Yes Completed Finished Goods
