New perspectives through Six Sigma

The group Tonfunk Ermsleben sets for a year at the Six Sigma management system and with great success: the first-phase project to cost savings brought in six figures.

Tonfunk has big plans. The EMS provider wants to increase its sales by 2015 to 100 million euros. With 25 percent revenue increase over the previous year, the group has set the ambitious growth target in mind. "We are" on track to Tonfunk-chief Norman gate is secure. Currently, the company invested in an additional 2000-square-foot manufacturing building inusurance and in new automation techniques, surface facilities, and X-ray inspection systems. So despite revenue growth rather than the quality remains on track, working the Tonfunk group since a year now on the integration of Six Sigma management system and this is for a medium-sized EMS provider definitely something special, because what in corporations is normalcy long, had been in the middle class more of a novelty. For many years, renowned customers rely on the quality of Tonfunk group. All processes, from development through production to service, are structured according to international quality assurance standards, according to TS 16949 certified by TUV Rheinland. The Six Sigma program goes further and focuses more on customer needs. That the entire group Tonfunk designed Six Sigma quality management after a year shows already considerable success. For a total of five projects, which were processed in the first phase by July 2011, are the results. And that can be seen: Tonfunk has already realized savings in the six figures.
