Lean Manufacturing

Lean Manufacturing is crucial today for organisations to remain competitive in a dynamic market. By implementing lean principles, companies can streamline their production process, reduce costs, increase efficiency and shorten lead times. This allows them to respond faster and more flexibly to customer needs. Lean Manufacturing also promotes a culture of continuous improvement, where employees are engaged and proactive in identifying and solving problems.

Testimonials

"Stanwick's strength is that they also thoroughly work out the "behavioural component" of projects. You notice this not only in the content of the training, but also in the cooperation. The trainers we work with know very well how to sense exactly what the client needs and when. Once the needs are clear, they create a tailor-made and appropriate training. The special rapport with us as customers, creates a partnership for the future. The origin story of "LEAN" around those aircraft, can still fascinate and retell everyone who was in the training."

Participant

“Within our organisation we are convinced that the principles of Lean Manufacturing and Continuous Improvement form the basis to understand and tackle performance losses. To be able to translate this conviction into practical improvement projects, we turned to Stanwick because they were able to provide training specifically tailored to our business. For each element of a Lean Production System, Stanwick could provide very concrete and recognisable examples to clarify the theory. As a result, 8 participants from different departments, with new insights and a lot of enthusiasm, have successfully completed a Lean Green Belt Project. During this training and during the implementation of the projects, the participants were forced to look in a different way at the organisation and processes within their specific department and the link to other departments. We now see a close team that has become stronger in recognising losses and in identifying flows within manufacturing. Through this approach, improvements have been made to processes that would otherwise not have been questioned. We can therefore demonstrate that this training has more than exceeded the investment. It is now up to us to make this improvement culture grow further in our company."
