Description
Lampas System has a decades-long history, characterised by the professionalism and experience of the people employed, but is currently poorly structured and centralised in key positions. The project therefore aims to make the company’s know-how available across the board, in order to improve the quality of products and services. The project presented here envisages the involvement of a research institute, namely the Department of Engineering and Architecture of the University of Trieste, which together with other professionals will enable the company to review, optimise and modernise the entire production system.

Goal
The aim of the project is to innovate production processes and company organisation, creating a model for small and medium-sized companies operating in the electric motor engineering sector. Large players in the sector manage to innovate in a very traditional sector, such as electric motors, but for smaller companies, the barriers to innovation are more pronounced. The main steps involve the optimisation of organisational and production processes, with a strong introduction of information technology. as well as the improvement of machinery, which today is often manual and has low productivity and standardisation. Lampas System’s expertise will therefore be standardised and shared throughout the company, reducing low value-added activities and increasing product quality and standardisation.
Result
The project is scheduled to last 15 months. Lean technology, now a standard, will certainly be exploited, but this will be a cue that will be declined in the local manufacturing reality. From phase 2 until the end of the project, tablets and computers will be introduced in the company, so that staff can become familiar with the implementations that will be made and provide feedback on them. The project, therefore, does not only provide for the improvement of business processes, but will also have the effect of sharing the IT and quality culture with all personnel.
The project started on 26 July 2021 and will end on 25 October 2022 (for a total duration of 15 months). The project obtained funding of € 47,046.47 from the Autonomous Region of Friuli Venezia Giulia on the POR FESR 2014-2020 – Line of Intervention 12.a1 DGR 991/2029.
