The cost control of furniture production factory refers to that in the production process, the concept of cost control is infiltrated into the measures of production technology, production method and production management, so as to regulate and limit various consumption in production, and control the production cost within the scope of cost control plan.

In China's manufacturing industry, as the overall economic environment has entered the new normal of medium and high-speed growth, the growth rate of labor, raw materials, energy and other production factors is greater than the improvement of production efficiency of furniture enterprises, which makes it more and more difficult for furniture enterprises to operate. Therefore, it is undoubtedly a controllable way for furniture enterprises to constantly explore ways to reduce costs.

Three misunderstandings of cost reduction in furniture manufacturing enterprises

01-1 inferior raw materials

In order to reduce the cost of raw materials, they often call many suppliers together to ask for price reduction. If the suppliers do not agree with the requirements of furniture enterprises, they will immediately terminate the cooperation relationship.

In fact, this is the furniture enterprises in reducing costs easy to fall into the misunderstanding.

In the whole value chain of furniture enterprises, there is dependence between each link. The cost management of the next link must be based on the cost management of the previous link.

The cost minimization of the previous link does not mean that the cost of the next link will also be minimized, let alone the cost of the whole value chain.

01-2 simple hard compression cost

Most managers will naturally understand cost as production cost, and limit cost reduction to production activities. In fact, in the traditional manufacturing industry, the production cost is only a part of the total cost, accounting for about 50-70%.

In addition, a considerable part of the costs are generated in technology research and development, marketing, consumer services and other fields, but they are often ignored in cost analysis.

01-3 improper compression of total cost

The supply chain is around the core furniture enterprises, through the control of information flow, logistics and capital flow, starting from the purchase of raw materials, making intermediate products and final products, and finally delivering the products to consumers by the sales network. Some managers think that furniture enterprises should pursue the minimum cost of all links.

The principle of measuring cost advantage of furniture enterprises is: on the premise of providing the same product value with competitors, reduce the cost of furniture enterprises relative to competitors, that is, try to reduce the cost that does not increase the difference of products or services.

Ways to reduce furniture production cost

Cost control is not simply to reduce prices, wages and procurement standards. In the process of cost control, we should not damage the interests of employees, consumers, society and nature, nor relax the requirements of product quality, nor replace inferior products with good ones. Instead, we should optimize the business structure.

02-1 staff labor cost

Now, even for a long time to come, front-line workers will occupy the first place in enterprise cost. Manual cutting and drilling. According to the increase of labor intensity of workers, the cost will be higher.

The intelligent cutting machine matching design optimization software, will reduce the labor intensity of workers by 80%, and the technical requirements for personnel is not very high, and better than management.

02-2 improve production and processing efficiency

The limitation of manual cutting is too large, and the maximum number of cutting plates per day is 35-40, and there is no abnormal shape. CNC CNC blanking 8 hours a day, about 60-80 plates, plus the automatic loading and unloading platform, the efficiency will be higher. It will pave the way for the development of enterprises.

02-3 saving raw materials

The utilization rate of artificial calculation and special-shaped cutting is about 2.3-2.4 M2 on average. CNC numerical control is equipped with intelligent optimization software to optimize typesetting, but the utilization rate of plate reaches about 2.7-2.9 m2, with an average saving of 0.3-0.5 m2 per board, which is calculated as 50 plates per day. How many boards can be saved?

02-4 machining accuracy of woodworking equipment

The accuracy of manual cutting is about ± 0.5mm. The equipment is seriously worn or the staff's technology is limited, and the accuracy is even lower.

The accuracy of CNC cutting machine is controlled within ± 0.02mm, and the edge will not collapse when cutting, slotting and drilling. This precision can not be achieved by manual operation, which is very beneficial to edge sealing and assembly.

03

Four reference measures to reduce cost

03-1 four reference measures to reduce cost

this is a road that Chinese entrepreneurs must take. It can stimulate the enthusiasm of employees and make them cherish their current work.

The first is the supply chain system, that is, the enterprise management responsibility system, and the next process is the customer of the previous process. This is the core idea, which extends the market mechanism to the enterprise and forms a "supply chain traceability chain" by connecting layers.

Second, the factory is fully contracted, and all departments become a comprehensive way of "making money". Turn every employee into a "business entity" and form a three-dimensional contracting mode.

The third is to establish unit and individual economic indicators. Through production quota, quality quota, consumption quota, cost quota, equipment utilization quota and total expenditure quota, the contract and traceability can be realized.
