The Colfax Business System is modeled after highly successful
processes, with roots in the Toyota Production System, recognized
worldwide as the decisive standard in manufacturing.
Danaher Corporation, launched in the mid 80's by Colfax founders'
Steven and Mitchell Rales, adapted the same methods into the U.S.
manufacturing environment. It was so successful that Danaher top
management leveraged the system across all Danaher companies.
Continued growth
Since 1997, Colfax Companies
have adopted the method, and continue to add new tools and processes
to meet the needs of an ever-changing
marketplace.
The flow of the business is ever changing but the guiding principles
- continuous improvement and customer satisfaction - remain constant.
