Our experiences of engaging the help of some international, leading consulting firms during this time were disappointing. A number of extensive and expensive change programs were launched, with some positive initial results that were not sustained. We came to the conclusion that something critical was missing from the programmes we embarked on and then we were introduced to PCC.
At the end of 2008 we engaged our senior leadership team, management and supervisory teams in a small workshop investigating PCC and how it links into the sustainability issues we had witnessed first hand.
The results speak for themselves! We now have a clearly communicated strategy that holds meaning for people at all levels, manifest in Q2 2009 when we reported our best profit performance since the move, it has been a quick turnaround in very challenging times.
We couldn’t afford to follow the culturally accepted approach and PCC helped us find what we’d been looking for – on-going success through our own people! We are now in a better position to provide value to our customers than ever before”

NAME; Amarjit Binji COMPANY; Managing Director AJB Woodworking Ltd Manufacturers of high quality timber windows doorsets and internal joineryQUOTE; The three day training provided to introduce Lean manufacturing was a real eye opener for me and my senior management team. Principles we had naturally touched on and questioned in the past, but without establishing direction became crystal clear during our training. This has put a whole new level of thinking and a new energy level into the factory which we are all very excited about. An Absolute must for any business, especially in these difficult times. The training methods were outstanding, with the complete overview of the sociological and psychological theories as they link to Lean, essential. Knowing why and how it works has enabled us to really believe in the philosophy and practice and we are already making great strides forward.
