Lean testimonials
What our clients say
“Business improvement is a continual and consequential process
with improvements leading to a more competitive edge and higher
profits. We reduced our core product sales lead times from 3 weeks
to 5 days (2-3 days for priority orders) as a direct result of lean
process improvement.
We also reduced the stock value we held, which released more
capital for development projects. These improvements in our
business helped contribute to a 20% increase in turnover and 300%
increase in profits over the period.”
“If we hadn’t started this all off with B-IT back in 2005, we
wouldn’t be where we are now.”
Warwickshire College continue to provide BIT training for
Geotech, who now use their own staff to mentor new learners.
The college offers generic training and bespoke packages for
individual companies.

“I believe that the NVQ in Business Improvement Techniques is
playing an important part in up-skilling our workforce to meet the
demands of a world class manufacturing environment in a very
competitive industry.
Even during the recent economic downturn, the programme has
enabled the workforce to better engage in, and contribute to,
driving our business forward by generating original thinking and
delivering critical business improvements.”
Alan Volkaerts
Operations Director, Land Rover

“It has been encouraging to see how involving a number of
employees has given them the confidence to tackle problems
themselves. The Business Improvement Techniques course has been a
great success, with employees achieving the main aims of joining
the programme - raising the standard of education of employees in
operations.”
Steve Trotman
Production and Personnel Manager, Thwaites

"The NVQ programme has been a great success giving the
candidates good knowledge and helping to improve our business in
all aspects including: Safety, Environment, Productivity, Quality
and appearance. Not only has this given us a better, cleaner
and safer working environment but it has helped UEES save thousands
of pounds, helping us to stay more competitive against our
competition"
