Though a lot of middle management staff have undergone training on Lean methodologies and also have completed their graduate Diploma in Business which also has some papers on Lean, the concepts were not applied on the shop floor. In Oct / Nov 2008 nearly 30 of their managers and team leaders underwent training in 2 day Introduction to Operational Excellence conducted by PSL, where in they were exposed to world-class practices to achieve operational excellence. Following on from their it was decided to form teams and work on some improvement projects.
