NTEA report assembly manufacturer operations
Jun 1, 2007 12:00 PM
The National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA) recently published the 2006 Manufacturer Operating Metrics Benchmarking Survey Report, the result of a joint survey conducted with the National Truck Dealers Association (NTDA).
The report contains responses from NTEA and NTDA members identifying and assessing operating data on issues members can use to create world-class manufacturing processes.
In the manufacturing area, more than 48% of the high-profit manufacturer participants indicated that their design and engineering departments had production machinery less than five years old. For the median manufacturer, the response was 30%. Almost all of the figures are medians (the middle number of all values reported arranged from lowest to highest).
The report presents a detailed review of general information, operations, quality and measures, sales, organization, and safety and insurance. Data is presented for the median NTEA and NTDA manufacturer, high-profit manufacturers, by line of business and company sales volume category.
Cost for non-participating NTEA members is $100; $200 non-members. To purchase a copy, visit the “Storefront” at www.ntea.com or phone 800-441-6832.
