    • Abstract:
      Small and medium-size film converters and extruders can improve their operations and compete against offshore manufacturers, consultants from McKinsey& Co. Inc. told a plastics trade group's technical seminar in Newport Beach. Presenters from the Irvine, California, office of the McKinsey global consulting firm identified contemporaneous changes in operating systems, management infrastructures, mind-sets and behaviors as keys to manufacturers' successful transformations. Eliminating waste and addressing variability and inflexibility are important, Ron Ritter, a McKinsey principal, told those attending the California Film Extruders and Converters Association's event August 13.
