Established in 1974, the Wichita site covers 46,000 square meters,
housing both skid steer loader and compact track loader product
manufacturing and dedicated Research & Development. The site
employs over 400 people and exports to national and international
markets in the NAFTA, EMEA, LATAM and APAC regions.
WCM is one of the global manufacturing industry's highest
standards for the integrated management of manufacturing plants and
processes. It is a pillar-structured system based on continuous
improvement, designed to eliminate waste and loss from the
production process by identifying objectives such as zero injuries,
zero defects, zero breakdowns and zero waste. To certify
improvements, a system of periodic audits evaluates a selection of
WCM pillars, forming an overall score for each plant that is the
basis for three achievement levels: Gold, Silver and Bronze.
Determining factors for this latest achievement were due to a
series of category improvements including Professional Maintenance,
Level of Detail and Motivation of Operators.
