Hi, I’m Mark Lilly. I help leaders and teams in high-mix manufacturing shops strengthen their relationship with customers by making On Time Delivery the norm. I love seeing clients get a handle on predictable production and shorten their lead times while increasing OTD to 90-100%. When I have free time, I’m windsurfing in Dallas or Aruba. My top goal is to help my clients have stress-free time so they can do more of what they enjoy most. Why I Do What I Do Traditional scheduling hasn’t changed much in the past 50 years and manufacturers are still struggling to solve the late problem. Popular tools simply don’t make it possible to answer key questions: 🚩 What should I work on now and what do I work on next? 🚩 Do I have the materials I need, or can I see when they will arrive? 🚩 How do I predict and manage all of this in real time to reduce the risk of being late? My family set out to create a new way to approach decision-making for production. The result is an evolution beyond scheduling and into flow. 💡 Our Process: Dynamic Production Method (DPM) 💡 By keeping your team focused on doing the next right thing, our methodology rapidly and dramatically improves manufacturing flow through 3 Performance Principles: ☛ Pragmatic Planning - Anticipate variability and build in time protection for when “stuff happens” so you can keep due date promises. ☛ Proper Pacing - Control material entering WIP, identifying the “just right” time to start each job and avoid creating traffic jams. ☛ Predictive Prioritization - Know what to work on next and prioritize actions based on the actual risk of being late. 🖥️ Our Platform: Protected Flow Manufacturing (PFM) 🖥️ As our flagship product, PFM fixes the root of the late problem. It works no matter where symptoms appear across Production Planning, Scheduling, Purchasing, Materials Planning, Sales, Shipping & Receiving, Engineering, and more. Our proprietary Threat Level analytics provide real-time prioritization for each job and predict more accurate completion dates across all jobs. PFM’s predictive AI can also simulate hundreds of work orders in minutes to identify the best path forward. ☛ Get in Touch Let’s explore how you can tell customers when they will get their orders—and keep those promises. ✉ Mark.Lilly@lillyworks.com | ☎ (972) 372-9964
