Lean Successes

"The lean workshops provide practical solutions to real world problems. After attending the 5S-Visual Controls workshop we were able to immediately share the knowledge and related material with our production crews, and implement many of the concepts which allowed us to see immediate results."

Gordon Lord, Operations Manager
Kirk-Habicht Spring Company

"The lean workshops are packed with useful--ready to use--information. The lean workshops use an interactive model of learn and practice through simulation exercises."

Tammy Sagastume, Manager, Human Resources
Maryland Thermoform Corporation

" The lean one-day workshops that I have attended blended interaction with lecture which assisted in making the workshops very interesting and entertaining. Additionally, I found that the workshops provided real life solutions that would be easy to apply in the workplace. Lastly, my hat goes off to the instructor for the presenting the workshops with a teaching style that stimulated your interest from start to finish."

Fall 2007 Conference A Success Maryland stakeholders from business, government and academia heard from such Maryland-based manufacturers as General Motors, Lockheed Martin, Johnson Controls, Coca Cola Constellation NewEnergy and Marlin Steel Wire Products who provided examples of how their green manufacturing initiatives have increased their profitability while also benefiting the environment. Both federal and Maryland state government agencies provided insights on their programs, some of them free, to help companies become more efficient and less polluting to help industry better understand “how to go green.”
Nearly 200 people including students, teachers, and leaders of business government and labor participated in RMI’s Women and Minorities in Manufacturing and Engineering program hosted by Northrop Grumman. VIEW a VIDEO from this event...
Energy Conservation is the way to immediate cost savings. That was the message at the Feb 23rd Energy Conservation – Wise Choices for Manufacturers program. One hundred nine people attended the event.
