The Harbour Report 2006

Efficiency and productivity are key elements to any successful manufacturing endeavor. The Harbour Report is a comprehensive annual view of how North American automobile manufacturers stack up on clearly defined metrics of productivity. The evening’s discussion will focus on The Harbour Report 2006 and the story behind it. Who are the best and what separates them from the rest? Which automakers are improving the most? What strategies are different companies pursuing to raise productivity? What does the data show about the future? Which companies have the most unused capacity and what are they doing about it? Some of the findings will surprise you.
