How do you boost your FTY metrics?

Faced with strong and unexpected increase in production, in an expanding market with dynamic order flow, an aeronautic equipment supplier turned to AVENCORE to establish a strategy to eradicate non-quality costs. Until then, less than 15% of units coming out of the production line were compliant. Derogation requests were piling up.

To address this issue, we revisited all processes from design to production, with two main objectives:

  • Improve the robustness of the production process by better accounting for the capabilities of the production tools from the design stage.
  • Validate a local redesign of parts that are challenging to produce.

Results quickly materialized, with a FTY (first-time-yield) rate increased from 15% to 95% and resources required to address non-quality issues divided by four.
