In short, the source of my inspiration is their description of Finland\u2019s economic situation: <a href=\"https:\/\/ek.fi\/tutkittua-tietoa\/tietoa-suomen-taloudesta\/tuotanto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Finland\u2019s economy has seen virtually no growth in 15 years [ <\/a>2], productivity is stagnating, and foreign direct investment is not flowing into Finland. These are presented as the reasons why the economy is struggling. Public debt must be taken on year after year, and various cuts are being planned. The episode covers the topic in much greater depth, but the point is clear\u2014when the economy isn\u2019t thriving, the Nordic welfare society cannot flourish.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a remedy, Rahapodi prescribes productivity growth, the formula they have already repeated: more, better, with less.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As I listened to this, I was driving to meet a long-time client. While listening, I reflected on my own role in solving this problem. This sounds like the kind of problem whose solution would benefit all of Finland and would be a truly significant challenge to tackle. After a moment\u2019s thought, a light bulb went off in my head\u2014that\u2019s exactly what we do at Hefmec! After all, our services are always aimed at increasing productivity. This is also supported by our slogan, \u201cProductivity Engineering.\u201d     <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do we respond to the productivity challenge?<\/h2>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Project &#8211; In the implementation of investment projects, we help create opportunities to manufacture new products in Finland or expand existing production. In these projects, we often operate as part of the client\u2019s organization, ensuring that projects are carried out according to plan. We often take on the management and execution of a project or part of it, which gives our clients the freedom to focus on their own core business. This not only speeds up project completion but also improves the quality of the end result.   <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Design &#8211; We develop work methods and tools that support increased productivity in manufacturing by enabling tasks to be completed faster, more safely, with higher quality, and\/or using fewer resources. Design projects can be part of a larger whole or solutions to specific areas for improvement. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Products &#8211; We turn designs into delivered and commissioned products, at which point the designs are truly put into practice. Increasing productivity requires reliable production equipment and tools. That\u2019s why all our products are designed and manufactured to last\u2014for a long time.  <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of the examples above aim to produce <em>more and better results with fewer resources<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your company aims to increase productivity, Hefmec is ready to help you overcome these challenges! Together, we can be part of the solution that leads you\u2014and, by extension, the Finnish economy\u2014toward a more stable and brighter future. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Learn more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/services\/\">about our services<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/products\/\">products<\/a>, or contact us!<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized is-style-rounded\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/mika-julin-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12440\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:120px;height:120px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/mika-julin-1.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/mika-julin-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/mika-julin-1-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Written by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hefmec.com\/portfolio\/mika-julin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mika Julin<\/a>, Project Manager, Account Manager \u2013 Pharmaceutical Industry<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was inspired to write this piece by Rahapod episode 358, \u201cBlack Light in the Darkness \u201d [1]\u2014which I recommend everyone listen to.
