ESS Ltd. Present at Manufacturing Technology Ireland,14th - 15th October 2009

ESS Ltd. were delighted to be invited by Manufacturing Technology, the largest industrial exhibition held in Ireland, to host 2 seminars on Maintenance & Engineering Asset Management. The theme of this year’s conference focused on “bolstering the bottom line”.

As part of their Technical Seminar Programme, ESS Ltd. were invited to present 2 papers on Maintenance & Engineering Asset Management. Ray O’Neill, Managing Director with ESS Ltd. presented on “Lean Manufacturing – Can you do it without Lean Maintenance?”. Ray’s presentation examined the trends Kaizen, Six Sigma and Lean Manufacturing, but asked the question “Can you really claim to be “lean” without looking at maintenance too?”.

In addition, Pat Greene of ESS Ltd. presented a seminar on “Continuous Maintenance Improvement – Could it really be possible?”. Pat’s seminar set out a methodology for knowing what to do, to which machines and for how long. And then improving on this process.

Both Seminar’s were really well attended and received and we would like to send many thanks to everyone who was there. Some of the great feedback we received included…

" Stripped away the consultant speak about Lean and made it understandable"
" Logical and pragmatic - I could see how that'd work'"
" We found the seminar interesting and informative and would be interested in obtaining a copy of the presentation"
" I attended your seminar yesterday which was of great interest to me"
" I found both to be very interesting"

Again, many thanks to everyone for your attendance, interest and questions. If you have any questions for Ray or Pat about their seminar, please email us at bosullivan@essltd.ie or for additional information on Manufacturing Technology Ireland, log onto: www.industryireland.eu
