Production Management Training Program

At Elgibe Solutions, we offer hands-on, results-driven training for production managers, shift leaders, engineers, and anyone involved in operations. Our approach is built on real experience from managing and transforming production environments. We don't just teach theory—we provide the practical tools, real-world logic, and frameworks needed to make immediate improvements.

Deep Experience in Operations Management

With over 20 years of experience in operations management, we understand the day-to-day realities of the shop floor. Our training is built around helping your operations team improve organization, structure, and performance using methods that are easy to implement and sustain. Whether your team is struggling with inefficiency, lack of standardization, or unclear goals—we can help.

Shopfloor & Machine Layout Optimization

One of the first steps in building an efficient production system is the physical layout. We help your team understand how to evaluate and optimize the placement of machines, materials, and operators. We teach simple techniques that reduce unnecessary movement, improve safety, and enhance flow—without requiring complex tools. Everything starts with logic and clarity, using simple diagrams on paper or Excel templates.

Training Process for Blue Collar Employees

Well-trained operators are essential for consistent quality and performance. We guide you on how to build a simple and effective training process for machine operators and production workers. This includes identifying what skills are needed, creating basic training documents, and using quizzes or coaching to validate knowledge. We also show how to create a training matrix to track skill levels across your team.

Creating Machine Documentation

We teach how to build essential machine documentation that supports both daily operations and long-term reliability. This includes:

  • Work Instructions: Step-by-step guides that help operators perform tasks consistently and safely.
  • Maintenance Plans: Preventive maintenance schedules to reduce downtime and avoid unplanned stops.
  • Failure Catalogs: A simple collection of common machine failures and how to respond to them.
  • Parameter Sheets: Standardized values and settings for each product or operation to ensure quality and repeatability.

These documents don’t need complex systems to start—pen and paper, Excel, and PowerPoint are more than enough.

Defining and Managing KPIs (Key Performance Indicators)

Most companies track some data, but few know how to use it effectively. We train your team on how to define the right KPIs at all levels—from machine operators to plant managers. You’ll learn how to:

  • Choose meaningful KPIs like OEE, scrap rate, cycle time, downtime, and volume.
  • Define KPI targets based on realistic goals and industry benchmarks.
  • Standardize how KPIs are presented in reports and dashboards (using Excel or PowerPoint).
  • Set up review meetings with the right people at the right frequency (daily, weekly, monthly).

We explain not just what each KPI means, but how they connect to each other and how you can use them to solve problems and drive improvement.

Production Planning and Reporting

A great plan means nothing if it's not followed—and followed up on. We show you how to build simple, transparent production planning systems that keep everyone aligned, from planning to execution. You'll learn how to create reports like:

  • Volume Reports: Compare planned vs. actual output daily or per shift.
  • OEE Reports: Track performance, availability, and quality in a single metric.
  • Scrap Pareto: Analyze waste and defects by type or source to target improvement efforts.

All of these are built using accessible tools—no software investment required.

Simple Tools, Big Results

What sets our training apart is simplicity. We don’t push expensive systems or complex software. We teach your team how to make big improvements using the tools they already have—pen and paper, Excel, and PowerPoint. Once the fundamentals are in place, we can support your digitalization by offering digital tools that mirror and enhance what your team already understands.

The Final Outcome: Real Understanding and Practical Skills

By the end of our training, participants will not just memorize tools—they will understand how to think and act like modern operations managers. They will know how to build documentation, lead improvements, track KPIs, and support the continuous growth of the business. Most importantly, they’ll be confident and ready to apply their knowledge immediately.
