Manufacturing sector needs to think past LEAN manufacturing

Advisor to the manufacturing sector national and international business.

If you are looking for a LEAN manufacturing specialist then it's not me.  

My strengths are in strategic management which means taking a strategic view of the manufacturing process and identifying core competencies, areas for outsourcing, considering alternative manufacturing processes, product redesign considerations, reviewing if the product is fit for market, and whether the product should even be within the product mix of the business.  My involvement can start in the infancy of the research and development phase, or to review existing practices.

I have wortked in the manufacturing sector both in New Zealand and Internationally. With experienceacross medical device development and manufacture, boat manufacturing, foodstuffs, fabrication, engineering and primary production.
