Extra profit

Ten weeks in, factory productivity was up 46%. Three years on it had doubled — gains that compounded into roughly $200k a year in extra profit.

Ten weeks to a measurable lift

Peppertree didn't wait a quarter for results. By week ten on Empower, factory productivity was up 46% — a faster ramp than anyone on the floor had expected.

Compounding, not coasting

Six months in the gain had reached 86%. Three years in it had doubled outright. Each improvement built on the last because the data kept revealing where the next bottleneck lived.

What that's worth

Roughly $200,000 a year in extra profit — earned not through cutting corners or adding shifts, but by reading the factory's own numbers and acting on them.
