Continuous Improvement

Pender-Craft Cabinets has made a decision to ensure that the highest value possible is achieved in not only our finished product, but in the lives of everyone in the company. We have implemented a daily program that centers around our morning meeting. 

In our meeting we seek to improve the value of both our work and personal lives. We do this in a variety of ways:

  • Review our values statement and mission every day
  • Allow for mistakes and have a discussion time daily where we can go over any mistakes made the previous day and use it as a learning opportunity
  • Everyone makes a daily improvement to enhance safety, quality, simplicity, and speed in that order
  • Review the 8 types of waste and how to eliminate them
    1. Over-production
    2. Excess Inventory
    3. Defective units
    4. Transportation
    5. Wasted motion
    6. Over processing
    7. Waiting
    8. Loss of employee potential
  • Continuing education to improve our understanding of business and the world as a whole
