Brighton, MI - June 13, 2024 - Steelhead Technologies is thrilled to announce the official release of the Second Edition of The Job Shop Playbook. This comprehensive guide is designed to revolutionize job shop management, offering invaluable insights and practical solutions to common challenges faced by job shop owners and operators.
When our team was establishing Steelhead Technologies, we were astonished to find a lack of resources dedicated to the job shop management market. Determined to fill this gap, we embarked on a journey of extensive research and consultation. After hundreds of visits to facilities and numerous conversations with experts in LEAN Manufacturing and job shop consulting, we released The Job Shop Playbook. So, what does the second edition offer that the first edition missed?
Workforce Management
One of the biggest issues plaguing the job shop manufacturing industry is the ability to attract, retain, monitor, and reward top talent. We peeled back the layers and came down to three critical aspects to evaluate when deploying a powerful Workforce Management (WFM) strategy.
Cashflow Coordination
You got into business to do what you wanted to do, and 9 times out of 10, that does not include a love of balancing books. Without an eye for detail in margin analysis and job costing, profits quickly slip through the cracks. Discover the proven strategy to boost profits.
Job Shop Cybersecurity
With continued regulations in the manufacturing industry, protecting data for yourselves and your customers isn’t an option any longer. The experts weighed in on what job shops can do for a minimum viable solution up to an industry-leading resource.
Succession Planning
Let’s face it, you don’t plan on working forever, right? This chapter outlines a blueprint of activities to set your business up for success in the long haul. Whether you plan to pass down a legacy to a family member or sell the entire shop and enjoy a long retirement.
…and much more!
“The Second Edition of The Job Shop Playbook is a culmination of our dedication to the job shop industry. It provides actionable insights and strategies to address the most pressing challenges job shops face today. We believe this playbook will be an indispensable resource for job shop owners and managers,” said Jeff Halonen, CEO of Steelhead Technologies.
