Again, this enables the customer to focus their own manufacturing capabilities on larger and more extensive runs and enhance their own profitability. Five Distinct Manufacturing and Test Functions The Littleton Manufacturing and Test operations are organized into five distinct areas:
Turn-Key Manufacturing with a Teaming Focus As noted earlier, Littleton utilizes flexible, rapid change assembly stations in their manufacturing process. Experienced, skilled assemblers complete each production unit as part of a team for that particular product. These teams take great pride in their workmanship, assuring customers of the quality that comes only with the "ownership" facilitated by this teaming approach. As new assemblers are inserted into production teams they are mentored by their seasoned team members. This insures not only that they master their assembly skills but also that they are fully integrated with their team. Customers can be assured that they will receive consistently high-quality output from their products dedicated assembly team.
