Visiting Caterpillar’s Lafayette Large Engine Center in Indiana

November 4, 2019

When we talk about Operational Excellence and lean manufacturing at Caterpillar facilities around the world, there may be no better example than the Lafayette Large Engine Center in Indiana. Lean is a holistic approach to the way we work and deliver results. It is a culture of problem solving, learning and continuous improvement – and is key piece of the Enterprise Strategy to deliver positive results and profitable growth.

Chief Financial Officer Andrew Bonfield goes beyond the numbers this quarter to take us on a tour of Lafayette’s primary manufacturing building – nearly 1.3 million square feet under one roof.
