Continuous Improvement: A Peak Performance Journey
Peak Performance, Red Gold's term for our continuous improvement journey, is a very important facet of our company culture. Red Gold is composed of many different specialists and generalists, who work each day to make our product better.
For some, that might mean improving a genetic strain. For others, it could be figuring out a method to pack products more efficiently. Still others may discover how to get the many products we make into our customer's hands a little more quickly.
We collaborate with Purdue University, assuring we are trained in the latest lean manufacturing techniques, to enhance our Peak Performance initiative. Employees receive company sponsored, on-site education through Purdue University‘s Technical
Assistance Program (TAP). This program provides our employees with up-to-date manufacturing skills and tools needed to be increasingly productive and successful.
TAP provides each team member opportunities to use their creativity and resources, to put new and improved processes into place. Peak Performance aligns lean manufacturing processes with Red Gold’s business objectives.
PEAK PERFORMANCE. Accept Nothing Less
