Industry Forum

How we work

Why Industry Forum?

We have been delivering significant and measurable performance improvements for leading global manufacturers for more than 25 years and believe there is no one size fits all approach to driving competitiveness across the industry. Toyota, British Airways and Electrolux are among the brands who have tapped into our expertise to ensure they remain on top in their own fiercely competitive markets.

Industry Forum provides advice and mentoring support, extensive training & development and, where required, consultants to support from the factory floor up to board level. Our team of more than 150 experts has delivered over 400 tailor made improvement strategies in 30 countries across the world, and we are approved and certified by the relevant international trade bodies.

The adoption of our expertise and programmes enables businesses to up their game and stand out from the competition to secure and deliver key contracts.

Uniform Approach

Every business is unique and so we immerse ourselves in your environment to develop a complete and objective understanding of your needs before creating and helping to implement a bespoke improvement strategy. 

During this process, we often find the root of any problems impacting overall effectiveness and can therefore isolate the issue at its source and swiftly find the solution. We are not partial to any particular course of action, we simply identify and steer you onto the best path for your business.

We streamline your business to optimum competitiveness, focusing on:

Quality

  • Total Productive Maintenance
  • Lean Manufacturing
  • Six Sigma
  • Manufacturing Leadership Development
  • Quick Response Manufacturing
