August Distribution Performance Report

Embracing change can often, at times, be difficult. Last month we realized that we needed to make some changes in our day to day operations in order to improve our company metrics. That's why, this month, Earnest Machine is pleased to see our metrics on the rise since July.

July Distribution Performance Report

Earnest Machine is committed to delivering our customers the right part, in the right quantity, on time, every time. In reviewing our metrics for July, we have identified some key areas where we are underperforming to accomplish our goals. 
 
Part Accuracy: Our Part Accuracy metric fell from 99.95% (above goal) in June to 99.82%, and we issued a corrective action to identify the root cause of this and to seek out a resolution.

February Distribution Performance Report

We have a saying at Earnest Machine for when we underperform: “hug the cactus,” meaning if an error occurs, we own the mistake and make it right. We would not be aligned with our core values if we did not honestly and accurately report our Distribution Performance Metrics to our customers as we say we will do every month.
