Achieving Performance Excellence and Profitable Growth through Operational Effectiveness

The only event to target Lean for MRO!

While striving to continually meet demand growth, commercial MRO (Maintenance, Repair & Overhaul) companies are challenged in a turbulent economy with higher wages and operational costs, union labor organizations and increased competition. Many organizations are optimizing operations by adopting Lean Six Sigma (LSS) programs to reduce costs and increase profit margins.

Through LSS methodologies, aircraft maintenance processes are enhanced and transformed by eliminating waste, streamlining flow and improving quality and customer service. The 2nd Lean Six Sigma for MRO Forum will bring together executives from leading MRO organizations and LSS experts together to share best practices on:

  • Leveraging tools to improve operational effectiveness and minimize service downtime
  • Anticipating and planning for high variability demand in complex operations
  • Transforming company culture while increasing efficiency for lowered costs, improved throughput, and increased competitiveness
  • Enhancing communication and team work for smooth transition into new processes
  • Maintaining sustainable LSS programs and managing CPI (Continual Process Improvement) projects to drive business excellence
  • Reducing turnaround times without increasing capital or headcount
  • Identifying and managing bottlenecks to free up capacity

Join your peers for two days of networking, relationship building and insights from Lean Six Sigma leaders and operators to share real-world strategies on transforming your MRO operations to excel in today’s business climate.
