Essential training and development for each stage of your lean journey

We estimate that more than 60 percent of US manufacturing companies will say that have a continuous improvement initiative in place. While many companies are applying lean or Six Sigma to drive efficiency, they soon discover that these methodologies are often poorly leveraged to accelerate growth and create competitive advantage. Operational improvements don’t align with performance metrics, continuous improvement resources get reallocated elsewhere in the organization and the program stalls. It is common for companies with existing continuous improvement programs to seek additional training and support to improve their capabilities and deliver sustainable results.

Do any of these characteristics look familiar to you:

Our business is changing and we have much work to do and no dedicated resources to drive improvements
We are practicing continuous improvement in disconnected parts of our business but there is no formal program in place – as a result, we utilize individual lean or Six Sigma tools but we don’t have a consistent approach across the entire company
We have lots of people with good CI background using a wide variety of “home-grown” content but lack a best-practices approach for the entire company. We need to either build our own library of training materials or we need to secure a stable of established training content from a proven service provider.
We want to train our own trainers so they can implement our continuous improvement program consistently across the enterprise. And, they’ll need the tools, training and certification to make it happen quickly.
We have a Six Sigma program in place but it is internally-focused, takes forever to generate results, and doesn’t really help us better satisfy our customer requirements.

Tools training, skill development, awareness training, leadership on-boarding, and skill mastery are critical success factors for any lean transformation. Whether you choose for TBM to deliver training or wish to develop internal trainers of your own, we can tailor a solution to fit your needs.
