CASE STUDY: IMPROVING THROUGHPUT FOR GLOBAL HEALTH & BEAUTY CONTRACT MANUFACTURER The Challenge: Manufacturer of health and beauty products was growing and demand for output was exceeding current capacity. The Solution: After a trial with Productiv teams, supervisors and processes, our on-site workforce has grown to manage over 70% of client’s labor-intensive lines and processes. The Results: 7-year on-site partnership with continuous growth and margin improvement. 100% increase in output and 20% decrease in costs. MANAGEMENT OF HAND PACKAGING DEPARTMENTS Staffing lines with managers who are trained on lean principles and best practices in warehousing, material handling, assembly, packaging and quality assurance Despite the disadvantages of using temporary labor for hand packing operations, supply chain managers might inherit a legacy operation using staffing agencies or turn to those options in special circumstances. When experienced line management is a high priority, Productiv’s Hand Packaging Management services can provide extra capacity for your onsite operations. Our supervisors embed at your worksite and coach teams on productivity and efficiency so that targets are never missed. Some clients begin by partnering with Productiv to evaluate the workflow of their hand packing projects: from process to staff positioning to quality checks. After a thorough consultation, our Hand Packing Management team can recommend ways to optimize floorspace, workflows and material handling based on lean-engineered principles to boost project outcomes. How it could look for you: Are you ready to make the jump from over-capacity FTE supervisors and disjointed temp workforces to a cohesive team that works as an organized unit toward your shared goal? Reach out today! CASE STUDY: REVENUE INCREASE WITH PRINTING COMPANY The Challenge: Printing company was looking to offer clients hand work as part of their solution in order to offer higher value marketing and signage programs. They needed expertise in pricing and executing handwork since in-house knowledge focused on printing. The Solution: Productiv placed a Supervisor on site and hired the printer’s existing handwork department. Productiv provides real time pricing to print estimators and manages all hand packaging projects. The Results: Client has additional services to offer clients for incremental revenue stream. Productiv’s locked-in pricing allows client to accurately estimate and win more projects with value-add hand packaging opportunities. FIXED-COST LABOR PROGRAMS Designing projects that prioritize outcomes instead of duration-based temporary staffing Our clients often come to us in a time crunch, needing to package and ship thousands of pieces of product in short order. It’s not uncommon that they turn to the assistance of temporary labor instead of manning their lines with FTEs. It’s a choice that relies on a faulty assumption: hiring temporary workers is cheaper and sometimes the only option. The fact is that, when factoring in direct and hidden costs like training, turnover, re-training, extra oversight, and supervisor frustration, the cost of temporary labor can be 53% higher than alternative solutions. Not only that, but Productiv can have a project up and running within 24 hours through our sprint capacity program — so even the tightest deadlines don’t require temp staffing. Additionally, Productiv’s outsourcing and onsite contract packaging solutions offer cost advantages over hiring temporary labor. Most notably, our projects with clients rely on cost-per-unit pricing, the most effective way to guarantee projects don’t encounter overruns or delays based on turnover. The contrast is especially evident when compared to the cost-plus model of staffing agencies.

REWORK AND PRODUCT INSPECTION Repurposing SKUs or correcting improperly packaged/labeled goods to meet updated specifications Imagine: you’ve just wrapped a promotion where your product’s packaging advertised a partnership that ended unexpectedly. You’re stuck with thousands of pieces of product that now have out of date labeling but are otherwise fit to sell. What do you do? Productiv’s embedded Rework and Product Inspection program helps clients convert their unusable inventory to consumer-ready product – all from the convenience of their own worksites. Even the most thoughtful supply chain managers and procurement teams run into issues with improperly labeled items, faulty lots, or obsolete SKUs that can be salvaged by inspection, updated bundling or re-packaging. Our teams specialize in the intensive handwork needed to inspect, relabel, (un)bundle, and remove faulty pieces from bulk inventory. We work with our partners to understand a products’ updated specifications, and our contract packaging experts quickly and efficiently design a solution to prepare them for retail.
