IVECO Valladolid plant achieves Gold Level designation in World
Class Manufacturing
London, April 17, 2019
The IVECO commercial vehicles manufacturing
facility in Valladolid, Spain has achieved Gold status in the World
Class Manufacturing (WCM) program becoming the second CNH
Industrial N.V. (NYSE: CNHI/MI: CNHI) site, after the Madrid plant,
to do so.
This recognition coincides with the
international launch of the new IVECO Daily van which will be
manufactured at the plant. The Valladolid site also manufactures
cabs for the brand’s Trakker and Stralis heavy trucks, with final
assembly at the Madrid IVECO plant. In 2018, over 80% of production
from Valladolid was destined for global export.
The factory operates under the WCM program,
enabling it to efficiently manage the highly complex production
process of the Daily range which features over 11,000 product
configurations, some 350 colors and six different body types. World
Class Manufacturing is one of the global manufacturing industry’s
highest standards for the integrated management of manufacturing
plants and processes. It is a pillar-structured system based on
continuous improvement, designed to eliminate waste and loss from
the production process by identifying objectives such as zero
injuries, zero defects, zero breakdowns and zero waste. To certify
improvements, a system of periodic third-party audits evaluates all
of the WCM pillars, forming an overall score for each plant that is
the basis for three achievement levels: Bronze, Silver and
Gold.
The IVECO plant in Valladolid has been the
recent recipient of several awards which contributed to the
prestigious WCM Gold Level status. Last year the plant was
recognized for its "visionary leadership" in the transformation
towards Industry 4.0 in the 'Manufacturing Leadership Awards',
conferred by American consulting firm Frost & Sullivan, and, in
September, was awarded the Manufacturing Excellence Award by the
American Association for Manufacturing Excellence (AME), which
acknowledges leading companies in innovation, creativity,
continuous improvement, as well as best practices.
