Tours

The GE HealthCare Electric Avenue Plant tour provides participants with a firsthand look at a facility built on specialized, highly complex manufacturing technologies and vertical integration.

The site has transformed through disciplined lean application, technology adoption and strong leadership engagement. The tour highlights how the plant integrates its management system to drive daily accountability, visual performance management and a culture of continuous improvement.

Participants will experience real-time digital dashboards, MES-enabled workflow control and automated data capture that support consistent, high-quality execution. The Electric Avenue facility’s lean journey reflects a shift from reactive problem-solving to a structured, prevention-focused operating model. Early challenges — including variation in process stability, material flow interruptions and inconsistent standards — led to the adoption of tools such as 5S, standardized work, error proofing, tiered daily management and A3 problem-solving. Participants will see how the plant sustains improvements through layered audits, KPI transparency and closed-loop corrective actions.

Tour highlights include:
• Management system discipline that aligns teams from operators to executive leadership
• Advanced technology integration supporting flow, traceability and waste reduction
• Operations improvement systems that strengthen quality, delivery and cost performance
• EHS excellence, featuring engineered controls, visual risk management and proactive safety behaviors

By the end of the tour, participants will gain practical insights into how the Electric Avenue facility blends lean principles with innovation and leadership to achieve measurable operational outcomes.
