Tyson Foods, with eighty-three plants in twenty states and seven
countries, produces a variety of premium chicken, beef, pork, and Cornish
game hen products. After manufacturing, Tyson products are shipped to
Tyson distribution centers or a similar outside facility for storage until
requested delivery. RedPrairie asked us to help Tyson Foods achieve a 20%
productivity improvement in two plants, Montgomery City, Missouri, and
Ottawa, Illinois.
The combined team began by simultaneously gathering data, verifying the
accuracy of the data, incorporating best practice methodology for all job
functions in the distribution operation, and then developing standards and
loading them into RedPrairie’s DLx® software.
When we were finished, Tyson expected to reach its goal of 20%
productivity improvement within twelve weeks of the go-live date in each
facility.
