| No Walls, No Limits
Parker Bayside’s commitment to an open, creative environment is reflected by our facility. Our headquarters has virtually no interior walls. The cellular structure extends from the factory floor to top management executives working in an open environment arranged by functions and teams, not hierarchy. Ideas, knowledge and technology are allowed to flow freely. Our “no boundaries” attitude pervades our factory as well. Each manufacturing cell contains a PC linking its CNC machinery to the rest of the company. All employees have access to design, manufacturing, sales, and even financial information. This open communication eliminates errors and promotes an open, team-oriented environment.
Cellular Manufacturing
Parker Bayside do not have workers toiled in separate departments, performing single operations on batches of parts. Instead we belive in cellular manufacturing, where small, self-contained cells of employees make a product from start to finish. Frequently utilized by Japanese companies, this structure allows employees to become self-sufficient,creative and They take pride in and responsibility for their work, yielding a quality product in a fast, flexible system. Moving beyond the Japanese model, Parker Bayside encourages a high level of competition between cells and provides incentives based upon team performance. This aggressive approach to cellular manufacturing enables Parker Bayside to quickly deliver high quality products.
