The golden autumn sun is warm and serene, the autumn breeze is gentle and soft, the autumn sky is clear with drifting clouds, and the golden fields stretch across the land. Autumn is the season of maturity and harvest. In this season of abundance, the Zhongshan Jiachen Comprehensive Management Performance Improvement project, guided by the Realscheme consulting team and spanning a year, has been successfully completed. After both parties' diligent efforts, the project has yielded remarkable results: the company’s annual labor costs have decreased by approximately 10%, annual quality losses have been reduced by over 2 million RMB, and the unit hourly output and per capita productivity in key production processes have increased by more than 20%.
Zhongshan Jiachen Industrial Co., Ltd., located in Zhongshan City, Guangdong Province, China, is a comprehensive enterprise engaged in production, manufacturing, and sales. The company primarily focuses on the production of pharmaceutical packaging (such as aluminum-plastic composite films, eco-friendly heat-seal papers, pharmaceutical gaskets, polyester bottles, etc.), medical supplies packaging, daily chemical packaging, and industrial products packaging. Since its establishment in 1987, the company has been at the forefront of the industry. From the beginning, Jiachen has passed various management system certifications, including ISO 9001, ISO 4001, and HACCP, and has obtained the national certification for the specialized production of Class I pharmaceutical packaging, a qualification held by only a few enterprises. The company is also a member of the Guangdong Pharmaceutical Packaging Materials Professional Committee and a designated supplier of pharmaceutical packaging materials for the Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group.
Project Background
In order to adapt to the changing market conditions and the increasingly fierce competition, reverse the declining trend of business volume in recent years, improve overall profitability, and regain the glory of ten years ago, Jiachen urgently needs an all-around improvement in management levels. Therefore, Chairman Mr. Su Bingkun proactively decided to introduce a high-level management consulting team from the industry to help Jiachen with reform and innovation. This team will guide the implementation of these changes, solidify the foundation of enterprise management, and drive the company’s transformation, enabling it to achieve further growth.
Project Implementation Results
The consulting team from Realscheme Consulting conducted a comprehensive and detailed management diagnosis of Jiachen based on its actual situation and proposed a personalized, targeted overall solution. The team first made adjustments to the company’s market strategy, shifting from the original, more singular pharmaceutical packaging business model to a diversified development model incorporating both pharmaceutical and food packaging, based on the common characteristics of these industries and the company’s hardware and software conditions. Additionally, they adjusted the company’s customer classification and structure, optimized and reorganized the business team’s division of labor, and made significant adjustments to the compensation distribution for the business personnel.
Furthermore, the consulting team carried out comprehensive reforms and restructuring of Jiachen’s operational management model, including optimizing the company’s organizational structure, adjusting the performance evaluation and compensation management systems, rebuilding the supply chain management system and lean production management system, and further optimizing and perfecting the quality management and process technology management systems. The key focus was on process optimization and reengineering around "cost reduction, quality improvement, and efficiency enhancement" to meet the operational management needs of the new market model.
Through the optimization and adjustment of the organizational structure, human resources management now meets the strategic needs of the company’s development while ensuring the reasonable number of positions, clear responsibilities, and clear division of labor in each department and position. As a result, the company’s annual labor costs decreased by about 10%. By cross-synchronizing and re-engineering management modules such as customer service, quality, technology, production, planning, procurement, and warehousing, and guiding their implementation, the overall quality awareness and production efficiency awareness of Jiachen’s employees greatly improved. Since the project’s implementation a year ago, direct losses caused by quality issues have decreased by more than 2 million yuan, and efficiency metrics, such as unit hour output and per capita output in key production processes, have increased by over 20%.
On this basis, the company began to gradually introduce world-renowned customers, boosting employee morale and work enthusiasm. An interesting phenomenon occurred: some employees who had previously left the company now proactively contacted production supervisors, hoping to return to work at Jiachen. Indeed, management change is not an immediate process, and the newly adjusted management system will continue to display its comprehensive management effects as it is further implemented.
Since the implementation of the project, the Realscheme Consulting team has consistently thought from the perspective of Jiachen’s leadership, driving reforms and always focusing on team building and talent development as the core of our work. Through on-site, hands-on education and training, we have helped Jiachen cultivate a group of young core staff. Today, they have already mastered a series of scientific management methods and effectively applied them in management practices. Their management abilities are being fully demonstrated across key positions. They regularly conduct financial cost analysis meetings, planning and quality-focused meetings, sales meetings, monthly operational management review meetings, and other key management activities. They also regularly perform on-site audits, inspections, and track meeting resolutions. They are continuously driving employee execution, further solidifying and improving the company’s processes and systems, and comprehensively enhancing the company's operational management capabilities, laying a solid foundation for Jiachen’s future development on a higher level.
The implementation of Jiachen's full-scale project has been unanimously recognized by the company's management team and has also received high attention and full recognition from the industry in Guangdong Province. Mr. Su Bingkun, the Chairman of Jiachen, looks forward to a long-term, in-depth collaboration with the Realscheme Consulting team, with mutual promotion and further achievements. The Realscheme Consulting team regards client expectations as its mission, setting higher standards for itself. The team will continue to innovate and iterate management consulting methods and techniques, constantly learning the most advanced management theories from both domestic and international sources, to create more and greater value for its clients.
"One flower alone does not bring spring, but when a hundred flowers bloom, spring fills the garden." The Realscheme team always takes "promoting transformation, growth, and innovation in printing enterprises" as its sacred mission. We strive to provide high-quality services to more clients and work together to create a brighter future!
