“This will show manufacturing companies’ different approaches for identifying and eliminating non-added value (wastes) in operations through continuous improvement for doing everything more efficiently and fulfilling the customer’s desire for maximum value and lowest price,” Yusuf said.

According to him, the conference/workshop is designed for CEOs of Manufacturing companies, Top Management, Operators, Production Personnel, Operations Personnel, Engineering Personnel, Operators logistics Personnel, Warehouse Personnel, among others.
