Tenryuseiki's SCM(supply chain management)system
At Tenryuseiki, the production schedule is reviewed and updated daily according to information we receive from our customers concerning their orders. With the aim of meeting our customers' needs on a just-in-time basis, we have established an in-house computer-controlled supply chain management (SCM) system. This system keeps track of our component parts, numbering 1,000-plus pieces per machine, each and every one of them boasting enhanced print result visual inspection capability and operational efficiency.

At this time, we would like to introduce you to our connector assembly system, equipped as it is with the very essence of our high technology and "wisdom." Information equipment having become a tool we use daily -- in town, at the office and factory, at home and even in "my car" -- the social environment in Japan for mobile communications has been gradually established and improved, enabling anyone to gain access to desired information anywhere and at any time.

Needless to say, supporting Japan's information-oriented environment is a wide variety of electronic devices, including connectors.

On the basis of know-how fostered over the past four decades of activity as a manufacturer specializing in the production, assembly and inspection of connectors, we offer you our peerless connector assembly processes. We can state with all confidence that such a system could only have been developed by a manufacturer with perfect knowledge of the mechanisms of connector assembly.

We believe our connector assembly system offers the best solutions available because it allows the user to freely combine varieties of connector assembly machines, ranging from semi-automatic to full-automatic machines, according to a user's particular production environment. Please avail yourself of the state-of-the-art connector assembly system that has earned the trust of the industry.

Tenryuseiki's screening system, which has been dubbed the "Marushin System," purports to provide our customers with the best possible solutions available. When it comes to the management and operation of a system, input is sought not only from sales engineers, but from specialists in other departments as well -- including the mechanical and electrical departments and members of the design and production departments - with everyone conducting research, screening and verification activities from every possible angle in order to divine practical solutions to customer problems. Their activities are carried out according to the following steps:

Research into inquiries from customers ∀	At Step-1, we want to know our customers' wishes, so we ask them to let us know exactly what sort of equipment they wish to have.
Preparation of estimates and specifications ∀	At Step-2, we conduct thoroughgoing studies of our customers' wishes and requests in order to determine the most practical means for realizing them, preparing our estimates and specifications with the focus firmly on achieving high cost performance.
Preparation of assembly-line drawings for acceptance by customers ∀	Our initial drawings embody in concrete terms our ideas concerning assembly lines so that these ideas can be reflected in actual assembly-line drawings to be used for assembly operations.
Start of production ∀	Before launching production, we review all of our drawings in an effort to detect problems, if any, and take necessary countermeasures.
Production process	In the event that problems arise while production is in progress, the staff members concerned get together for review meetings.
* We have made it a firm rule that each meeting at every step must have at least one expert in attendance.
