We’ve shifted from being product-focused to being process-driven, and EASE has been the catalyst for that change. Quality isn’t something we check at the end anymore — it’s built into every step of manufacturing. That shift has completely changed how we think about excellence.

Without EASE and LPAs, we would have never reduced escapes to customers by 50%.

We don’t have to start from scratch, and that removes a huge roadblock. They feel part of the team, part of the bigger company, right away. EASE has helped to bring our companies and business units together because we’re tracking things the same way in the same application, in different countries.

Manufacturing is data-driven, and if you don’t have it, you can’t find problems. When you can go into EASE and see an issue happening with one machine, that’s a good indicator you might want to look at other ones as well. You can’t do that with a spreadsheet.

EASE is the key contributing factor to reducing internal PPMs in our light vehicle group by 47%.

I highly recommend EASE to any organization using paper and pencil or other manual spreadsheet LPA systems. The savings in administrative tasks and data collection is well worth the investment.

EASE is definitely a valuable mechanism that has considerable application throughout our Powertrain Division. EASE has increased the value of our global programs.
