Faster and PoliMi, the collaboration continues!

Faster and PoliMi, the collaboration continues!

Just like we did last year, over the last 6 months we had students from the Italian university Politecnico di Milano working here with us in Faster to develop specific projects aimed to improve our company.

This year we had two groups of students: one working in our R&D Department and one in our Production area.

The R&D group, under the guidance of our PMO Tommaso Calvi, completed their work at the beginning of March, whereas the Production’s team just started their project under the supervision of Federica D’Adda (Workshop Logistics and Raw Material Supervisor).

We would like to thank all the students who took part in these projects: Andrea Davide, Marco Giommaroni, Martina Biacchi and Enea Pietra.

Special thanks to Professor Alberto Portioli Staudacher and Matteo Rossini, who coordinated the two projects.

Davide and Giommaroni’s project was about the Introduction of Finite Capacity scheduling for workload in our R&D Department and continuous improvement. Whereas Biacchi and Pietra’s work is focusing on cost reduction and optimization of raw material flow towards treatment suppliers.
