WHY ONGOING INVESTMENT IN CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT EQUALS INCREASED RETURNS FOR YOUR MANUFACTURING BUSINESS.
CeeD, in collaboration with Scottish Enterprise and Highlands and Islands Enterprise, are delighted to continue the series of workshops and forums exploring why and how organisations choose to invest in Continuous Improvement with our 4th session on Wednesday 13th July at 10am.
We have so far explored a variety of best practice case studies from Diodes Inc, Dover Fueling and Woodward Aircraft Engineering - contact David MacGregor if you'd like to view a recording of these events).
So, how can you now start or continue your own CI journey and what are the key enablers to successful, sustainable and value adding Continuous Improvement?
Is it funding and financial challenges stopping your investment into CI or is it having people with the right skills and a process to deliver and sustain CI within your business?
Join us to hear from:

The ambition of the Scottish Government is for Scotland to become the home of manufacturing innovation, to be seen as an inventor and producer, not just a consumer of goods - innovative, thriving and international looking.
Let’s all be a part of continuing to make a strong manufacturing sector to help drive Scotland's economic recovery and future prosperity.
