Recently, PSA decided to take our card operations to the next level. We focused on Six Sigma Lean Manufacturing and made significant investments within our facility, enabling us to create a true lean manufacturing environment.
That process included consolidating our card manufacturing operations and full personalization services under one roof, moving equipment to create true card manufacturing production cells focused on end-to-end manufacturing of card products and services, while cutting out waste and redundancy throughout the production process. These steps as well as others transformed and elevated our card manufacturing facility from a good card plant to an industry leading end-to-end card manufacturing and personalization facility.
The results are remarkable – cycle times are significantly shorter than the industry, quality is well above our competitors, and service levels are unmatched in the industry. At a time when other manufacturers were cutting back, PSA made significant investments in people, processes and equipment.
What does this mean to our clients? It translates into the best talent, producing the best card innovations, delivering the best turn-times, at the highest quality levels. That’s a large part why PSA won the 2009 “Partner of the Year” and “Best in Innovation” awards from the world’s largest processor. Not to mention our long history of receiving top quality scores over 97%.
