The challenges manufacturers face
From tackling productivity issues to embracing sustainability and digital transformation, manufacturing leaders face a unique set of challenges. These hurdles can often seem insurmountable without the right guidance and expertise. Whether it's navigating the complexities of lean manufacturing, improving operational efficiency, or fostering a culture of continuous improvement, the obstacles are significant and varied.
How GM Business Growth Hub supports manufacturers
That’s where we come in. At GM Business Growth Hub, we pride ourselves on supporting manufacturers in overcoming challenges and achieving their goals through tailored workshops and one-on-one advisory support. Our team of experienced specialist Manufacturing Advisors works closely with businesses to understand their specific needs and provide customised solutions. But don’t just take our word for it – hear directly from the manufacturers who’ve partnered with us to drive change and growth.
Boosting productivity and efficiency
Peter Potts, Managing Director at Signs to Signs, Manchester: “The (Business) Growth Hub Manufacturing Team has been an invaluable resource on our journey towards lean manufacturing excellence. Implementing lean practices has not only streamlined our processes but has also fostered a culture of continuous improvement within our organisation. We have significantly enhanced our efficiency and productivity.”
Andy Wilding, Managing Director at NEMA, Rochdale: “We have worked with GM Business Growth Hub over a number of years now and have found the support really helpful to our business. Our team participated in the Lean Champion and Manufacturing Culture and Leadership workshops, and we have implemented ideas from both workshops to help improve our efficiency and productivity.”
Enhancing leadership and team development
Steve Lawrence, Director at Techmarkets, Trafford: “I’ve found the support of the Manufacturing Team most helpful; I am working on generating quite a significant culture change in the company, and knowing there is an organisation capable of delivering concepts such as Lean Champion with this level of support is both helpful and reassuring.”
Neil Dawes, Group Training Manager at HMG Paints, Manchester: “The Lean Champion course has really helped a broad range of people across the business. It was fantastic for team building and helping people to think differently when approaching problems and roadblocks.”
Driving business growth and innovation
Jeremy Kemsley-Pein, Managing Director at Heatsense, Rochdale: “We have worked with our GM Business Growth Hub Manufacturing Advisor, Martin Hyman, for some time now and his specialist domain knowledge and support is a great help to our business. His support has helped our business to expand in Rochdale, enabling Heatsense Cables Limited to increase its annual turnover by over £1M since support began.”
Sebastien Miquel, Technical Director at Pressed Flights, Oldham: “I strongly recommend you attend this (Sales & Marketing for Manufacturers) workshop as it introduces what you need to put in place to have a successful marketing approach which of course leads to a successful business. It was very constructive to have a variety of businesses participating to this workshop as there is much to learn from other business sectors.”
