Customer Case Study:

When Liberty Pressing Solutions acquired Cov Press, it was losing over £3 million a year and in catastrophic supply status, meaning it was unable to quote for new business. Historically, Cov Press had suffered what Liberty described as a serious lack of investment across all areas of the business, but particularly in the training of its employees, who were disengaged from the organisation.Liberty Pressing has now turned around its fortunes by developing the Liberty Manufacturing Operating System (LMOS), which Industry Forum and its People Development Programme has been a fundamental element.Find out how Industry Forum worked with Liberty Pressing Solutions to make a "big difference" and why the programme is the "most successful turnaround project" that Plant Director, Stephen Hemming has ever been involved in.Not only that, but how the programme delivered net savings in the first 12 months totaling over £300,000.
