In October, November, and December CEG Business Growth Services helped Cambridge Valley Machining (CVM) roll out a Training Within Industry (TWI) program. Lead by CEG Program Consultant Erick James, CVM trained 10+ employees in the three TWI core modules which teach skills and methods for helping supervisors increase productivity, reduce costs, reduce training time, and improving real-time employee relations. CVM has already seen process improvement impacts of $7,100+ and expects that over the next year these programs could save an additional $45,000 and 750 man hours.
TWI was developed in the U.S. during WWII to train replacements of an industrial workforce off to fight a war. It provided rapid and consistent training and is recognized as part of what helped the Allied forces secure victory as they boosted industrial production and out-produced the enemy. TWI was an unqualified success.
For information on how TWI can you help your company increase production while reducing lead time, scrap, and production costs, contact the Erick James (erickj@ceg.org) at the Center For Economic Growth, Business Growth Services Team.
