Improve Profitability & Competitiveness

The Manufacturing Institute–which delivers BERR’s Manufacturing Advisory Service in the North West–will give an introduction to the principles of lean manufacturing and provide a real life case study from a fellow manufacturer.

Business Link Northwest is an impartial, free-to-use business support and information service for businesses and individuals across the North West and will outline the support available for manufacturing businesses.

This is a chance to see just how vital it is to be lean. We will show you how practical process improvement solutions can reduce or eliminate waste and improve your bottom line. You will also hear about the range of services available to support your business and relevant case studies from local manufacturers.

Who should attend?

Managing directors, owners, financial directors, production managers and team leaders in small to large sized companies looking for practical ways of improving business performance and competitiveness.
