UAE recycled paper manufacturer pioneer Union Paper Mills chooses PRESTO Digital Enterprise to jump start its innovation program
Go Back
Since 1988, Union Paper Mills (UPM) has been converting waste paper into recycled testliner and fluting medium to cater to the packaging industry in the UAE and internationally.
Having digital transformation on the top of its agenda and looking to teach Lean methodologies to the staff, UPM chose PRESTO Digital Enterprise to manage daily shop floor issues, reduce operational waste, manage KPIs, close knowledge gaps and collect process optimisation ideas to optimise performance.
In a short few weeks, the entire set of UPM productivity KPIs were entered into PRESTO permanently changing the daily management team meeting's approach to prioritisation of activities. Together with the staff, the action plan task manager was activated with automatic alert and email notifications sent to all RACI-involved parties to ensure increased sense of ownership and sense of urgency at all levels of the organisation
