INTRODUCTION

A skilled workforce is a company’s most valuable asset. To realise this asset it is necessary to ensure that methods applied are both correct and consistent. How often do you hear managers say one shift is better than another or a particular printer is head and shoulders above the rest. Worse still complain that some of their staff are hopeless but there are no skilled people available. The unenlightened see training purely as a cost. The fact that you are reading this page suggests that you do not fall into this category, so read on.

The application of best practice is essential. Training makes this happen. A well-trained workforce is productive and happy. At a time when margins are so tight ensuring all your resources are optimised is a necessity. Rejects and machine down time haemorrhage profits.

Many feel that new equipment is the answer to fixing problems, rather than ensuring their staff uses the current equipment properly. Once they purchase these very expensive pieces of equipment the lack of training is reflected in poor returns on capital employed.

Effective targeted training is what PDS Consulting offer their clients. Over the years millions of pounds have been saved by the application of these proven techniques in the working environment. Companies have grown and flourished and continue to invest in developing new techniques through high quality training.

All this can take place in your factory. Your staff doesn’t have to travel to the other end of the country to work on unfamiliar equipment with different consumables in another environment. We come to you and give your people the skills to get the best out of the available resources.
