Driving to Success: The Roush and Yates Racing Engines, LLC Transformation
Mary Ann Mauldwin, CFPIM, CSCP

An amazing supply chain management improvement process of Roush and Yates Racing Engines, LLC and its transition from a very traditional, family based manufacturing process to aligning with Ford Motor Company in 2003 to manufacture all the Ford engines for the NASCAR Cup series will be discussed. Mary Ann Mauldwin, Operations Manager for Roush and Yates, will speak about the process of how the company realized there was a need for materials management and associated capabilities, reviewing supply management and product flow, introduction of bills of and cycle counting, and implementation of a soft-ware package and process mapping to understand information flow and improve it. This transformation process resulted in Roush and Yates Racing Engines, LLC providing the engines that drove the 97 car to the Nextel Cup Series Championship in 2004. The racing industry is one in transition to a large, business-oriented international entertainment industry, which will be discussed in this presentation
