Fleetguard goes after the market

Fleetguard Filters Pvt Ltd (FFPL), a leading OE producer of air, fuel and lube oil filters for commercial vehicles and industrial applications saw very limited growth in its first fifteen years. Having realized conventional tools like Six Sigma and TQM could not deliver the kind of profitability growth it sought, FFPL began to deploy Theory of Constraints solutions companywide with the objective of achieving a seven fold increase in profit in four years. With the assistance of Kiran Kothekar and Vector Consulting, FFPL has successfully implemented MTA, Make to Availability, by changing their whole distribution paradigm, a concept that is virtually unheard of in the auto industry.
