Nercon Consolidates Manufacturing Capabilities Under One Roof
Nercon Engineering & Manufacturing, Inc., Oshkosh, Wis., announced plans to consolidate manufacturing capabilities and corporate offices under one roof at their plant in Oconto, Wis. The decision to combine the two operations into one expanded, upgraded, state-of-the-art facility is driven by lean manufacturing practices.
“To continue the same manufacturing operations in plants that are just 80 miles from one another is not efficient for our company or our customers,” says Steve Anklam, vice president. “Lean manufacturing is all about optimizing our processes and eliminating waste. This move and expansion in Oconto will help us eliminate waste, improve manufacturing and assembly processes, improve delivery and pass savings and benefits on to our customers. This is just the beginning of many positive changes for Nercon.”
