Lean Manufacturing

Same Day, Next Day. Quality. Throughput. Innovation. 100% Employee Engagement.

Lean Manufacturing at VIBCO Vibrators is about more than reducing waste and improving processes. It's about doing whatever is necessary to provide our customers with the products and services they want, exactly when they want them.  We are proud to manufacture all of our products in the USA at our Wyoming, RI headquarters. 

We live and breathe by our core values because that is the only way that we can make sure we focus on what is really important to our customers. At VIBCO Vibrators, Lean isn't something that individual employees "do" or "did" - it is an essential part of how we work every day.

The changes at VIBCO over the last seven are astounding.  World class customer service, fastest delivery times, dramatic quality improvements and an end-to-end committment to making our customers' day.  We'd love to hear your VIBCO story.  Join us on Facebook or send us a message here.

Plant Tours

We are firmly committed to sharing our knowledge and experience with others (and learning from them, too!).  A strong and thriving manufacturing community is essential to the health of our regional and national economy.  But we also understand that service industries, government, healthcare and other non-manufacturing operations can use lean manufacturing methodologies to improve.

VIBCO offers plant tours at no charge, by appointment on Tuesdays or Thursdays. We can accommodate groups up to 65 people.  A tour will typically last 2.5 to 3 hours and must be attended by the President/CEO of the organization.  Request a Tour
