Product cost "is one of the four major advantages in today's enterprise competition and an important link that must be paid attention to and valued in the development of enterprises. As a non dominant cable industry, with the increasingly fierce market competition, the profit space is becoming smaller and smaller, and we are facing a very serious problem. How to win in the competition and how to reduce costs to a large extent to win large profits is an urgent task in the current situation. We must start by saving product costs and reducing energy consumption, opening up sources and reducing costs, in order to produce high-quality products at low costs.
Firstly, the procurement of raw materials
The main raw materials for wires and cables include copper, aluminum, various plastics, rubber, and other materials. How can we gain a certain advantage in procurement? In terms of raw material procurement, we need to compare products with three different suppliers, and through specific communication, we will choose suppliers with higher performance and prices. Only when the performance of raw materials meets the requirements, can low-priced materials be selected to truly achieve good quality and low price.
The procurement of raw materials should be based on production needs, and blind procurement is not allowed. The insufficient quantity of raw materials purchased affects production progress, product delivery time, and the image of the enterprise; On the contrary, if the quantity of procurement is too large, resulting in a certain amount of inventory, it will occupy some of the funds and cause some trouble to the financial circulation of the enterprise, especially for rapidly developing enterprises, which may sometimes experience financial tension. If such an occupation of a portion of the funds is necessary, it will inevitably affect the development of the enterprise.
Secondly, in terms of process technology
To save costs, process technology is also an important aspect. Firstly, as a process technology department, it is necessary to design and develop reasonable wire and cable structures, which requires our technical department personnel to have a clear and clear understanding of the raw materials, process routes, and performance of wires and cables.
Thirdly, in terms of production operations
The production department is the manufacturing department of products, and the awareness and operational skills of workers will affect the improvement of efficiency. As a result, costs will relatively increase, profits will decrease, and employee benefits will also decrease. Most employees nowadays do not have a sense of cost in their hearts and do not even realize the importance of cost management. If workshop cost management is not implemented, employees' work will be scattered, their awareness will not be strong, their efficiency will be low, and waste will be relatively serious. Quality issues will be treated as a joke, and many problems will not be taken seriously, without truly establishing a cost concept. To establish this cost concept among employees, it is necessary to have a clear understanding from a psychological perspective.
Fourthly, in terms of comprehensive management
The so-called comprehensive management refers to the comprehensive management of the entire company. In order to save costs and reduce consumption, it is necessary to start from small steps, from saving a drop of water and one kilowatt hour of electricity. At present, from the perspective of the entire cable industry, some employees have a very weak sense of conservation, and they believe that it is not my business to waste or save. No one rewards me for saving, which is a manifestation of a person's quality. I believe that no matter who is, they should establish a sense of taking the factory as their home. Because "a strong enterprise makes employees rich", only when the enterprise becomes stronger and larger can all employees benefit and receive rich income.
To deeply ingrain this concept of thrift in people's hearts, it is not only necessary to educate and improve ideologically, but also to constrain discipline, formulate corresponding rules and regulations, and implement an assessment system. Without rules, there is no square. After the establishment and improvement of the system, it is necessary to implement and implement it, establish a supervision mechanism, and make the system practical. If the system becomes empty articles and decorations, it will not be effective, and on the contrary, it will also have a bad impact on the enterprise and hinder its rapid development.
