Agile Manufacturing, Agile Planning and New Technologies Training
An end-to-end training and development program designed for manufacturing companies competing in volatile, uncertain and complex (VUCA) market conditions. Built on Grupas' "people | process | technology" approach, this interactive classroom training offers a holistic roadmap spanning manufacturing fundamentals to production systems (pull/push/lean), agility concepts to the 4 rules of agile manufacturing, and end-to-end agile planning to new technologies such as APS, IoT, Artificial Intelligence and Digital Twin. The core question is clear: How do we increase speed, flexibility and quality together?
Who Is It For?
- Managers and specialists in manufacturing, production planning, supply chain, quality and continuous improvement
- Digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and operational excellence teams
- Sectors with high demand variability such as electronics and semiconductors, automotive and its supplier industry, defense and aerospace, medical devices, fashion and fast textiles
- Senior and middle managers looking to launch their agile transformation journey
What Your Company Gains
- Faster delivery: Shorter time to market (TTM) through short cycle times, JIT, SMED and rapid changeovers
- Lower cost: Waste reduction, WIP and inventory optimization (MEIO, DDMRP), improved capacity utilization rate and OEE
- Higher quality: Reduced process variation, right-first-time production and preventing defects at the source
- The right manufacturing strategy: Informed selection of MTS, ATO, MTO and ETO along with process flow types according to product and demand structure
- End-to-end visibility: Synchronizing demand, supply and production on a single platform; proactive decision-making with S&OP/IBP and "what-if" scenarios
- Constraint-based scheduling: Finite capacity planning, work order optimization and line balancing with APS
- Organizational agility: Flexible structures at team, organization and ecosystem level, multi-skilled teams and fast decision mechanisms
- An actionable transformation plan: A concrete roadmap with current state analysis → target design → pilot implementation → rollout steps
Participants receive certification. We are ready for enthusiastic collaborations.
