IPMA Makes a Splash in Kansas City
Stayin' Alive
In his session on combatting threats to in-plants, NAPL's Howie Fenton noted that customer surveys must be "actionable" if they are to do the in-plant any good. They should not only ask how the in-plant is doing, but how it compares with the competition. In his work, he said, he has kept in-plants from being shut down by using customer feedback showing the shop is better than its competition.
