Supply Chain Transformation Sustainability Enablers & Barriers

Accelerated Process Improvement Programme

The Accelerated Process Improvement Project (2001), aimed to outline a generic industry sector process improvement model, and to identify ways of sustaining process improvement activities. The research was conducted in association with the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders’ Industry Forum, whose aim was to improve the competitiveness of the UK Automotive Supply Chain. SMMT Industry Forum was a collaboration between car manufacturers, who trained a team of Industry Forum Engineers during hands-on process improvement workshops.
