Robert Stammers, Head of Waste Operations, LondonEnergy Ltd
“The IMPACT Masterclass pilot at Viridor has been a great success. Lean thinking enabled us to reduce our maintenance labour by 89% and the project as a whole resulted in a 6% increase of plant availability. Production and Engineering teams are now fully engaged and working alongside each other with one common goal, continuous improvement”
Damon Brierley, Head of Asset Operations, Viridor
“The Impact Programme is now an integral part of our operations strategy. It became apparent early on that this new approach was achieving really significant results. One of the big benefits of this way of working is that it sets the points of expectation, defines where the process should be so it is no longer open to interpretation. It removes the element of chance.”
Mike Berry, Operating Lean Delivery Manager, Welsh Water
“The significant lift in OEE generated by the IMPACT Programme produced two extra days of cylinder head production per month. We have in place clear visual controls around the factory to simplify routine checks and our operations team is rapidly moving towards ‘control and innovations’ maintenance.”
Gef Keys, Chief Engineer at Montupet, UK
“This is excellent, I don’t often see improvement as good as this.”

Dean Wogan, Bradford Operations Director, St Ives Direct
