Description

The Mid-West Lean Network: the second largest regional lean network in Ireland, after Waterford Institute of Technology’s Lean Enterprise Excellence Group, launched in November, was set up to strengthen and increase the existing culture of lean within the Shannon and the wider Mid-West region. Its aim is to enable each industry to broaden and strengthen their competitiveness through knowledge sharing and bench-marking against each other and different industries. 

Inaugural chairman, Neil Enright, GLSS Site Deployment Leader with Molex, in association with the Lean Network committee, and in response to a poll taken at the launch, have devised a programme of events for 2017 (see below for full details)

Workshop 2 will take place in Atlantic Aviation Group and will look at Visual Management focusing on project, which is  defined as a set of techniques for creating a visual workplace, embracing visual communication and control throughout the work environment.

Benefits of Visual Management

We will do presentation in Atlantic Aviation Institute and tour/demonstration in Atlantic Aviation Group MRO Hanger.
