According to leading manufacturing journalist Thomas R. Cutler in the May issue ofManufacturing & Technology, COGS reduction is one of the fundamental drivers of alean manufacturing initiative. Used to measure the ongoing success of leanmanufacturing, it fundamentally captures material, labor, overhead and toolingcosts. However, COGS reduction should not be thought of as a phase in a leanmanufacturing process initiative.
If lean manufacturing initiatives are reducing COGS, manufacturers must be able toaccurately measure and manage costs in real time. Only real-time, predictive costestimates can reliably be used to validate lean initiative decisions and guidecorrective actions throughout all the processes of engineering, planning andproduction, sourcing, quality control, program management and production delivery.
