IPMA 2010: A Hot Time in New Mexico
• Greg Cholmondeley of Ricoh noted that it is insufficient for in-plants to highlight only their profitability and volume figures during operational reviews. That approach can lead to no-win situations (i.e., a large profit could make management think you're charging too much; if you break even, they could say you're not contributing). He discussed ways to more effectively present an in-plant's true financial and strategic value and demonstrated how to determine that information using tools recently developed by Ricoh.
