The latest project stage of NVQ BIT training at Groveley is focussing on using tools such as Poka Yoke, Kanban and improved workplace organisation so Lean manufacturing and design for manufacture are engrained in the workplace culture.

Completion of this stage will mean that all our staff will be BIT trained, producing greater efficiencies, maintaining our 100% on time delivery and leading to extra capacity.

The skills gained will enhance their ability to monitor and make improvements to production and manufacturing processes – fitting well with our SC21 Silver status and and developing Lean skills across our company processes.

It’s valuable too in the area of continuous improvement, where BIT teaches how to identify and eliminate waste, create flow and improve quality.
