Streamlining and Improving EIP Processes in MIPS

Michelle MachenMauser Shorts, International Packaging

MIPS is strengthening its approach to identifying, tracking, and delivering EIP initiatives to drive improved business performance.

EIP is a key driver of MIPS’s strategy to strengthen pricing execution, expand margins, accelerate customer growth, and increase cost competitiveness across all functions.

To support these efforts, MIPS has launched a new EIP System and SharePoint platform designed to enhance consistency, visibility, and accountability. This centralized platform enables:

  • Simple submission of ideas through a standardized process
  • Centralized tracking of initiatives across plants and departments
  • Clear validation of financial impact through defined thresholds
  • Greater visibility into performance and best practices
  • Consistent tracking to support delivery of results

This framework strengthens accountability and consistency across EIP initiatives, ensuring progress is measurable, transparent, and directly linked to financial outcomes across MIPS. Supporting tools, training, and guidance are available to enable employees to contribute and drive value across the business.

In addition, MIPS recognizes impactful contributions through quarterly EIP awards that highlight successful initiatives, best practices, and achievements across the business.

Every improvement matters. Meaningful change begins with people and gains momentum through action.

All employees are encouraged to contribute ideas that help drive meaningful improvements across the business.

EIP is more than a continuous improvement process, it delivers measurable financial results while strengthening our competitiveness and long-term success.
