his production process, which allowed the company to build vehicles faster and keep costs lower. He was innovative, efficient and consistently worked to meet the needs of consumers. By the late 1920s, Ford Motor Company had become the largest manufacturer in the world, having produced more than 15 mil- lion Model Ts.

the performance and efficiency of state government. Just as Henry Ford focused on producing his autos efficiently, today we turn our focus on creating leaner government services in Arkansas. In 2015, the Arkansas legislature voted to consolidate four state agencies at my request. Already, these moves have helped our agencies streamline services and better utilize taxpayer dol- lars. Over the next five years, we’re expected to save around $10 million. Tese changes are yielding big savings — and con- tributing to a new generation of ideas and efficiencies in state government.

In the words of Henry Ford, “Coming together is a begin- ning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.” When we work together, there’s nothing our state can’t accom- plish. It’s not a Model T, but it’s a model that’s reliable, efficient and makes state government work well for everyone.
