“ It’s been really useful to work with Toyota and gain a fresh perspective on our harness-making system. The Toyota Production System measures led to a 66% reduction in inventory levels, reducing valuable time and costs. These significant efficiency improvements can instead be invested in other valuable areas to improves the lives of people with sight loss.”

"The contrast between the quality and usefulness of your advice and the work of other consultants is quite striking. We did not waste time implementing advice from the diagnostic and our visit to Deeside."
Director - Unto This Last
Enterprise Ireland
"Being able to visit a working Toyota plant where English is the spoken language has proven very helpful to over 2,000 Irish people TLMC have trained since 2009.
Visiting and learning with TLMC has been a fabulous development experience for me and many trainee visitors to the plant, from Ireland and from across Europe."

"I would just like to offer a personal thank you once again for the two days with the TLMC team, it was extremely informative and helpful and without doubt I have taken away a lot which will aid me!"

"I highly recommend this course for anyone on or about to start their lean journey. This is an excellent opportunity to learn Lean from the experts of how to keep it simple. Great mix of classroom theory and practical use of tools on the shop floor. We have already implemented several learnings from the course."
Continuous Improvement Coach - Dairygold
Precision Instrumentation
“We had the opportunity to send our team to join the Lean Start program early in 2022 and we were completely blown away with the program and the outcomes. The team from Toyota were able to customise the learning when at our site, to really make it specific to our current challenges, and it was by far and away the best value for money we’ve spent in recent years. We’ve probably taken away improvements that are 10 times the value of the course. We are extremely grateful for the Team at Toyota and to the Welsh Government for developing such a world class program. If you are a manufacturer in Wales and have the desire to make your business better, there is no better investment you can make.”
