Burgess-Norton Manufacturing Company is the world’s largest manufacturer of piston pins, as well as the leading producer of powder metal parts. Supplying many major car companies across the world, Burgess-Norton thrives on maintaining a high standard of quality in both their products and services. Recently there has been a change in the automobile industry that has affected the way piston pins are manufactured. These changes have brought on difficulties for the company as they must now change their product specs and adapt to the evolving market. Their main problem is the existence of nicks on the piston pins. The main goal of this IPRO team is to find a way to eliminate these nicks that occur throughout the company’s manufacturing process. This document will outline the main objectives and tasks that the team has been assigned with. Team structures, time lines and other plans are included. Also, a further company history and description of Burgess-Norton will be provided in order to make the objectives more clear.
