Raytheon Cycle Counting

Opportunity
Raytheon C3i in Largo, Florida desired to strengthen the internal development of their employees on the front line bench. Through the creation of a Manufacturing Engineering Training curriculum, employees from bench technicians to design engineers would be able to access training and development online in a self-paced study environment.

Because of the tremendous amount of components, parts and inventory required in the manufacturing process, a method for inventory control and measurement was needed to improve efficiency. Driven by the Six Sigma and ISO 9000 teams, a program for cycle counting was desired.

Solution
The first step in implementing a cycle counting procedure in the manufacturing environment was a basic orientation and training module. This would encompass a broad overview of concepts and outline procedures for implementing cycle counting into the culture of inventory control.
