"2024- The Year We MAKE THINGS Better” Here at Catalyst, we are increasing our focus on the Manufacturing sector this year alongside recent coverage of an industry on the cusp of resurgence, driven by technology and policy advancements. Our commitment to empowering change, continuous improvement and growth for our existing and new manufacturing clients will build on our industry experience to drive innovation and excellence and build quality foundations for growth. Part of this emphasis is the launch of our 2024 Training programmes with a specific focus on manufacturing sector challenges. In this week’s Blog article, our Senior Partner Kirsty Hutchison, details some of the background and thinking behind this initiative and outlines our perspective on an exciting year ahead for UK manufacturers.

We are thoroughly enjoying working with another incredible group of practitioners from across STFC 🌟 #learning #LSS #practioners #support #enablingresults
This year, STFC's Daresbury Laboratory launched 26 Yellow-belt Lean Six Sigma projects, with five spearheaded by Technology Department staff. Lean Six Sigma is a managerial approach fostering a culture of continuous improvement (with Yellow Belt denoting the level of training). It combines Six Sigma methods and tools (used to improve business processes) with the Lean philosophy (which focuses on preserving value and reducing waste). Projects led by Technology staff focus on: ✏️Improving the efficacy and reliability of our facilities ✏️Raising awareness of group capabilities and streamlining service requests ✏️Project information retrievability ✏️Continuous improvement of our ability to deliver advanced technology ✏️Technician optimisation Each of the site's 26 projects will benefit from a local Project Sponsor, governing from a light-touch Steering Group (chaired by our own K. J. Cheetham) and 1:1 coaching from a Black Belt practitioner from Catalyst Consulting. The staff involved will also present at a showcase this autumn and will have the opportunity to pursue Green Belt training next year. We look forward to seeing the outcomes of these projects and celebrating our staff's drive for Continuous Improvement! 📸The photo shows DL's Lean Six Sigma project team at a recent celebration event. #UKRI #STFC #Technology #TD #ContinuousImprovement #Lean #SixSignma

We are thrilled to sponsor and attend the Agile2024 European Experience this week 🚀 Just two days in, we've already met so many amazing people and have managed to join inspirational sessions with a broad range of Agile experts. Here are a few of our highlights so far: o The Agile Business Consortium team are doing a fantastic job of bringing together the Agile Community with a focus on learning and building meaningful connections. o The one and only Dave Snowden introduced us to the new Hexi Kit, an innovative approach to decompose methods and practices so they can be situationally assembled, enabling organisations and teams to apply the right methodologies and tools for them. o Alize Hofmeester shared the power of the Obeya with a focus on Accelerating Governance and Trust o Arie Van Bennekun, one of the original signatories of the Agile Manifesto reminded us of the importance of checking our egos at the door when working within teams. We are a little star struck and can't wait for day three.. #agile2024 #catalystconsulting #europeanexperience #businessagility
