It is based on the principle that while we cannot change the past, we can learn from it to influence the immediate future. SIC enables teams to solve problems quickly, reduces delays in decision-making, and enhances visibility and ownership on the shop floor.<br>SIC supports AMANN\u2019s strategy of fostering a culture of Continuous Improvement (CI) by engaging team members in a structured, proactive, and data-driven approach to short-term performance management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\"
