The production practices are centered around the following principles:
I need to run safely and reliably today and into the future. This includes meeting all environmental standards.
I need to maximize my output within the limits of my equipment:
mechanical integrity limits
system design limits
physical limits
product quality limits
environmental limits
regulatory limits
safety limits
I need to run consistently across shifts
I need to take accountability and feel responsible for the health of my equipment. I own this equipment and I need it to work right to be successful.
I need to recognize problems early and troubleshoot to the best of my ability.
