Manufacturing Maturity to Improve Performance

Want to understand your company’s strengths and areas for improvement? Did your management decide that the company needs to become more process driven to create an environment that promotes innovation, continuous improvement and maximizes business and customer outcomes? That journey should begin with a manufacturing maturity assessment

The major result of a such an assessment is a step-by-step plan to get to a higher maturity and therefore a better performance. With a higher manufacturing maturity, an organization is capable to better leverage the opportunities that the 4th Industrial Revolution will bring potentially.

It goes without saying that an appropriate standard is needed to assess against. A proven best practice approach for Manufacturing Operations Management is the ISA-95 standard, which MESA International used to construct the Manufacturing Capability Maturity Model.

In this online workshop, delivered in two sessions of approx. 4 hours each, the participant will learn more about maturity and the essentials of the Manufacturing Maturity Model. Through practical exercises, the participants get hands-on experience using the maturity model.
