Continuous Improvement (CI) in Food and Drink Manufacturing
Delivering Continuous Improvement (CI) within Food and Drinks manufacturing presents unique challenges which Claudius Consulting understands well.
When choosing a Continuous Improvement support partner, it is important that they have experience working within environments where food safety must be considered at every process step. Similarly it can be beneficial to have a support partner who has experience of the individual approaches taken by major customers in the application of business improvement methodologies. As more customers begin to set expectations around Continuous Improvement, and as annual audits begin to place more emphasis on sustaining year on year improvements, Claudius Consulting can help your organisation achieve effective improvements.
As more customers request that their supply base apply standardised improvement methodologies, Claudius Consulting are equipped to offer whatever level of tailored support you need. Options may include PDCA, Lean, Lean Six Sigma, Global 8D, Kaizen, SMED, 5S, OEE, TPM, New Product Introduction (NPI), Strategy Deployment or supported project facilitation. One of our most popular programmes is our 3 day ‘Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt for Food/Drink Manufacturing’.
