RESULTS RADIO..."Let's Grow Together"

Introduction

Hope everyone is looking forward to a great week. We have a few announcements to make about growth of the IBGR Network. 

First, we are doubling the number of new and returning visitors to the site. July was twice June’s numbers and we beat July’s numbers over the weekend.

Second, with the addition of Gambia on Sunday, IBGR is now heard by entrepreneurs in 100 countries. That is 51% of all the countries on the planet. 

Third, we have declared war on Covid19. That is not on the disease itself, just a worse variant of the flu. Our declaration is aimed at those politicians and bureaucrats that are making arbitrary, non-science based decisions on economic activity. People with no skin in the game, collecting checks from our taxes are deciding which business lives or dies. If you do your own research, a stark reality will become apparent - what is happening in your country is not based on science - it is based on power and control.

Check these articles out as reference points:
  • Sweden Hits COVID-19 "Triple Whammy": No Lockdowns, Low Deaths & Minimal Economic Damage
  • Lockdown Restrictions Are A Test To See How Much Tyranny Americans Will Accept
  • THE TRUTH ABOUT COVID19 - DON'T LET THE BUREAUCRATS AND POLITICIANS GIVE YOU A LINE OF BULL.

Put all of this together and we are your advocates against the forces of statism and command economies. We understand entrepreneurs are a different breed that don’t live by the leave of others - why? Because everyone at and associated with the station are entrepreneurs. We are building a network of ideas, insights, and tools that will help you navigate the pandemic and beyond.

Show Objectives - The Why
This is a critical estimate. You are going to make several decisions about how much and where you instead to focus managements efforts. You are making this estimate early in the Stage IV process, in fact this almost starts in late Stage III - why? Because if you are going to grow the company to its full potential as currently designed, you must have a legitimate estimate of what is possible. This will allow you to determine the revenue gap and current obstacles to reaching the goal.

Key Issues - Owner Perspective:
  1. Estimate the total capacity of the business - 100% - if everything is used to its potential.
  2. Decide on target percent for this Growth Stage - 90% is a solid number, avoid anything under 85%,
  3. Based on uptime (OEE), is there any preventive maintenance or replacement required that will fail to produce or breakdown?

What You Need to Know - The What
  • EPISODE B4.003 OPERATIONS STAGE IV CAPACITY PLAN​

What You Need to Do​​ - The How
​Level 1 Productivity: given a specific process's total capacity (100%), where is current performance? Current Performance / Total Capacity = X%
  • Mapped Processes with non value activities eliminated - Processes Under Control

Level 2 Flexibility: the ability to respond to outside or unpredictable demands that changes production requirements. Number of units, type of units, change over speed - ability to shift from one demand to another while maintaining quality standards.
  • Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) in place
  • Position Descriptions based on SOP's
  • Training Manuals (or programs)

Level 3 Leanness: achievement of the position of Lowest Cost Producer (LCP) in their niche or market. All nonvalue added activities have been eliminated and quality standards meet customer expectations.
  • Scheduling Measured and Managed
  • Efficiency Measured and Managed
  • Waste Measured and Managed

Level 4 Horizontal Alignment: all production is based on demand with customer objectives integrated into design and build standards.
  • Customer Experience Mapped and integrated in Internal Mapping
  • Customer at the table - their objectives integrated into design specifications
