Profiling The Production Ramp: An Inside Look at Lean Manufacturing

The production ramp up is fast becoming a reality throughout Pratt & Whitney. To learn more about what that means to employees, we are launching the "Profiling the Production Ramp Up" video series, featuring Pratt & Whitney employees from across the enterprise. Whether they work in manufacturing, operations, supply chain management, engineering or quality, their message is the same: "We're ready for the ramp."

In this video, "An Inside Look at Lean Manufacturing," Jamie Forry, senior quality inspector and ACE pilot, Pratt & Whitney Amercon, provides an inside look at lean manufacturing and what that means to Amercon employees.

"It's just really helped streamline our processes and help us flow process and product faster and more efficiently," Forry said.
