For many companies, demand is outpacing the production capacity of their workforces. Mathews, Inc. of Sparta, Wisconsin faced this situation with the additional constraint of having virtually no unused floor space in its production facility. Mathews needed to produce more parts while simultaneously reducing its floor space and maintaining its level of employment.

This paper examines the general factors of how that decision was reached and implemented and the resulting benefit to Mathews, Inc.
