The Bluffton facility plant made a strategic shift to manufacturing premixes in response to changing markets. With a strong emphasis on safety, quality and efficiency, their efforts have been commendable. Notably, ADM's Daily Review and Response (DRR) meetings have played a significant role in enhancing employee engagement and operational effectiveness.
"We are extremely proud of our Bluffton Team! We have introduced DRR in all of our facilities and Bluffton continues to drive continuous improvement. The DRR's are designed to keep visibility and balance in our metrics. This ensures we remain focused and urgent to service our customers," stated Junior Rogers, ADM North America Director, Animal Nutrition.
The AFIA has been recognising excellent feed manufacturing facilities through the Feed Facility of the Year program since 1985. Applications for the 2024 Feed Facility of the Year program opened March 4 and will be accepted until April 12.
