To comprehensively enhance its core competitiveness and consolidate the foundation for high-quality development, Xinxing Gear recently held a grand launch ceremony for its 'Lean Improvement' project. The event was attended by the company's Vice Chairman and General Manager, who joined department heads and the project team to witness this strategically significant milestone.

Top leadership demonstrates determination: clarifying the strategic significance of lean improvement

At the meeting's opening, the vice chairman defined the value of this lean improvement project from a strategic perspective. He emphasized that Lean Improvement serves as the cornerstone of modern enterprise management, forming the core foundation for achieving superior quality, enhancing efficiency, and ensuring safety. "While Lean Improvement may appear as basic on-site enhancements, it is actually a strategic initiative to cultivate corporate Lean culture and strengthen team capabilities," the Vice Chairman stressed. "The company's leadership has reached a strong consensus to allocate all necessary resources, ensuring the project achieves its objectives. What we pursue is not fleeting improvement, but the quality rooted in our hearts and the lean culture of continuous progress."

Subsequently, the General Manager delivered a comprehensive plan and mobilization speech regarding the project implementation. He emphasized that all employees, particularly managers, must undergo a complete transformation in mindset and actions. He stressed the importance of deeply understanding the essence of lean improvement –"standardization, normalization, and habituation." The General Manager stated, "Our goal is not merely to maintain a clean environment, but to optimize workflows, eliminate all waste, ensure production safety, and enhance product quality and operational efficiency through lean improvement. We aim to make excellence a habit and standards an instinct, thereby providing customers with more stable and reliable products and services."

Clear responsibilities and authority: build a strong promotion system

To ensure the project's effective implementation, the company established a well-structured organizational framework with clearly defined hierarchies and balanced responsibilities. The meeting announced that the Lean Office, as the core promotion body of the project, is responsible for the entire process of planning, supervision and support.

The General Manager has explicitly stated: "Department heads are the primary responsible parties for their respective lean improvement initiatives, with performance directly tied to accountability." The company has established a scientific evaluation and assessment mechanism to ensure closed-loop management of the "Plan-Do-Check-Act" cycle. This system guarantees that every task has assigned personnel, every individual has specific responsibilities, and every process adheres to established standards, thereby laying a solid institutional foundation for the long-term success of lean improvement efforts.

Beyond rigorous evaluations, the company is committed to fostering an organizational culture of continuous learning and collective growth. The Vice Chairman particularly encouraged all employees: 'The lean improvement process is a valuable opportunity for our team to learn and grow together. We hope everyone will dare to challenge the status quo, share wisdom, learn through practice, and grow through improvement.'

The company encourages innovative improvement proposals, and will regularly select and commend the "improvement stars" and "benchmark teams" emerging in the activities, so that active participation and outstanding contributions become the honor of all the Xinxing Gear members.

A solemn oath, a united front: a new journey to improve

The most exciting part of the launch meeting is the collective oath. Under the leadership of the oath leader, all members of the project promotion group stand solemnly, raise their right fist, and make a solemn promise with an enthusiastic voice:

I swear to actively participate in the company's lean improvement initiatives; to shift mindsets, discard outdated practices, and implement lean project team directives conscientiously; to respect mentors' guidance without excuses or justifications; to lead by example, avoiding superficial compliance and empty rhetoric; to share both successes and challenges, completing tasks on the same day; to pool collective wisdom and persist in continuous improvement.

The resounding vows echoed in the meeting room, showing the firm belief and tremendous strength of the Xinxing Gear members to carry out lean improvement and pursue excellence.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. We are confident that with the collective efforts and persistent dedication of all Xinxing Gear employees, the seeds of lean management will take deep root and flourish in this fertile soil, propelling Xinxing Gear forward steadily on the path of high-quality development and toward an even more glorious future!
