The Scott Group, a leading industrial supplies organisation which provides a wide range of goods and services to industrial and manufacturing markets, has 32 sites and employs some 2,000 staff across the UK. Five Scott Group employees, all based at its Burntisland, Fife site successfully completed the Lean Improvement Programme in 2023.
Scott Grant, Managing Director, Manufacturing at Scott Group, says:
“The Lean Improvement Programme has been an excellent learning experience for our participants and very beneficial for the company.
“Our team did a fantastic job. As well as their project delivering cost savings of around £113,000, a very important benefit for the company is the way they engaged with colleagues and have promoted a dynamic culture of continuous improvement across the production team.
“We intend to extend this project to our other sites across Scotland and the UK.”
Andrew Carnegie Business School works in partnership with a wide range of organisations in the private, public and third sectors delivering highly vocational programmes focused on boosting participants’ performance in the workplace. The Lean Improvement Programme is designed for organisations large and small in the public, private and third sectors. All benefit from the demonstrable return on investment of training focused on process improvement and elimination of waste, which also positively impacts the bottom line.
