Industry Challenges
Understanding the specific pressures manufacturers in this sector face every day.
Production Performance
Improve production efficiency by increasing throughput, reducing speed losses, and maintaining stable operations across processing and packaging lines.
Downtime & Line Stability
Reduce unplanned downtime by identifying recurring equipment failures, micro-stops, and process bottlenecks that impact production performance.
Production Visibility & Decision Making
Monitor production by line, machine, product, section, and shift to identify performance variations, improve operational decisions, and support continuous improvement.
Quality & Waste Control
Minimize product waste and quality losses through real-time performance monitoring, process optimization, and better production visibility.

Bottling Line Efficiency Improvement
CHALLENGE
A beverage manufacturer was consistently missing weekly production targets on a critical bottling line, with OEE averaging 61% and high micro-stop frequency causing accumulated losses.
SOLUTION
GPM conducted a detailed loss analysis, identified the top 8 micro-stop causes, and implemented targeted improvements including a standardised start-up procedure, operator coaching, and a preventive maintenance program.
RESULTS
- OEE improved from 61% to 76% over 12 weeks
- Micro-stops reduced by 52%
- Weekly production targets achieved consistently from week 8
- Zero food safety incidents during the entire engagement
