Manufacturing Transformed: Real Shops, Real Stories

06. Making Your Systems Work For You with Scott Shortess from Advanced


Listen Later

Scott Shortess, the President of Advanced, is a very thoughtful shop owner and thinks about the success of a precision machining company through the lens of a continuous improvement mindset, waste reduction and building really robust systems for the team to use effectively to delight customers. In this insightful interview, Scott shares how their company has been transformed by having a system that truly works for them, instead of them working for the system, and allowing that freedom to enable them to focus on the meaningful work of eliminating waste and focusing on the customer. Enjoy the conversation. About Advanced: Industrial Plastic Distributor, Fabricator, and Contract Manufacturer of Precision Components.
