Good Manufacturing Business Practices to Adopt in 2021

With every new year, it seems there’s a challenge for manufacturing industries to adapt to innovations and new government policies. To succeed, manufacturing companies must learn to be flexible and adapt to new practices and policies while keeping costs under control. Here a few tips to get your business ready for 2021.

1. Ensure you get the best price for your materials and equipment

The pandemic put a significant dent in the finances of most businesses, so this is definitely not the time to make unwise purchasing decisions. It may be tempting to buy more raw materials and machines to increase your manufacturing output and recoup profits, but if you rush into it, you may end up overspending. Take the time to canvass suppliers to get the most out of your money. Whether it be something as small as a hydraulic power pack or a more major investment, you will benefit from taking the time to consider your options before making a purchase.

2. Adopt more environmentally-friendly methods

The climate crisis has put many businesses under public scrutiny, and there is now a plethora of regulations that businesses need to comply with to continue operations. Besides financial penalties and potential legal repercussions, failure to adopt greener business practices also risks boycotts from concerned consumers.

While many manufacturers despair at the costs of transitioning towards sustainable and eco-friendly operations, there are actually lots of long-term benefits:

  • Recycling waste can lower material and disposal costs
  • Relying on renewable energy is cheaper and helps your plant be more self-sufficient
  • Attract consumers with a preference towards eco-friendly businesses
  • Minimised use of toxic and hazardous chemicals means a safer work environment for your employees

3. Implementing automation

Many manufacturing companies now rely on robotics and artificial intelligence for the majority of the manufacturing process for many reasons. First, automation is faster and more accurate because machines can work at a faster and more consistent rate than humans. They can also work more hours, thus speeding up the overall manufacturing process significantly. Second, automation decreases the chances of injury and accidents in the workplace. Third, the one-time cost to automate certain processes is cheaper than the long-term cost of paying for employee salaries and benefits. Even if you factor in maintenance and possible replacements down the line, the costs are still lower.

4. Prioritise continuous training for your employees

Innovations in manufacturing aren’t just a challenge for the business, but its employees as well. You need to ensure that your employees are up to speed on any new and improved technologies and procedures in the industry. Giving your employees ample training helps them stay competitive and builds loyalty.

2020 has been a difficult year for most, but what defines a business is its ability to rise against all challenges, no matter how unprecedented. Use 2021 as a time to get your business back on its feet and make major changes in response to the new normal. Don’t lose sight of your goals and use your perseverance and grit to propel you forward.
