Great Drill Bits | Collaborative Learning for Excellence: Key Laboratory of High Dynamic Navigation Team Visits Great to Explore 6S Management Enhancements

Recently, Zhang Tao, Director of the Hejian Laboratory of the School of Automation at Beijing Information Science and Technology University (Key Laboratory of High Dynamic Navigation), led his core team to Cangzhou Great Drill Bits Co., Ltd. for a field exchange and seminar focused on the 6S Management System. This visit aimed to build a cross-industry exchange platform where both parties could share practical experiences, spark new management ideas, and jointly promote the lean upgrade of 6S systems to achieve a bidirectional sharing of management wisdom.

Guided by the relevant department heads of Great Drill Bits, Director Zhang Tao and his delegation visited the production lines, office areas, and warehousing centers. They engaged in an immersive observation of the 6S management application results in real-world scenarios. From the precise planning of item positioning to long-term environmental maintenance, and from proactive safety hazard prevention to the standardized cultivation of employee professionalism—every detail demonstrated Great’s deep commitment to 6S management principles.

During the exchange, the laboratory team members took detailed notes and actively engaged in discussions. Both sides held in-depth talks on key issues such as overcoming bottlenecks in 6S implementation, system construction, and mechanisms for full employee participation, creating a vibrant atmosphere for intellectual exchange.

At the symposium, Great Drill Bits shared its practical roadmap for implementing 6S management over the years:

1. Phase 1: Initial Standardization Construction.

2. Phase 2: Deepening Full-Staff Training.

3. Phase 3: Long-term Supervision and Continuous Optimization.

Through this process, a 6S management model tailored to the company's development has been successfully established. Director Zhang Tao remarked that Great’s 6S management practices provide a valuable benchmark for the laboratory, particularly the integration of 6S concepts into daily operations to drive the deep fusion of management and business. This offers significant reference value for enhancing laboratory management efficiency and ensuring the orderly conduct of scientific research.

This seminar was not only a showcase of Great’s 6S management achievements but also a mutual empowerment of management experience between entities from different fields. Looking ahead, Great Drill Bits will continue to open communication channels and share management results with more partners. By learning from each other, we aim to drive collective progress and contribute to the continuous improvement of management standards across various industries.
