PP Business Improvement deploys improvement solutions to enhance your business performance and give real bottom line benefits.

Manufacturing has long played an integral part in driving forward UK industry. PP wants to ensure this deep and prestigious history prospers and flourishes, and is here to help businesses by sharing the experience and success that PP has to offer. Our solutions are not just limited to manufacturing; our approach has proven successful in a variety of non-manufacturing organisations including both private and public sector.

In a fast paced consumer driven world, being the “best of a bad bunch” may no longer be good enough. At a time when businesses are feeling the pinch and there is little public funding available to help, how do you strive for and achieve Gold? – Lee Marlow, PP Business Improvement Manager, explains how PP has the answer.

Our business transformation model helps your business on two fronts; culture change and improving QCD (Quality, Cost and Delivery) performance.

We start by understanding your business needs and issues through a structured diagnostic activity after which we work with you to eliminate the issues that cause the greatest concern. To eliminate these issues and see an immediate improvement in QCD performance, we use proven tools and techniques, such as Lean and Six Sigma. This helps to gain control of the business and allow the time and resources for the next stage of the transformation – developing your people.

 People are key to improving any business and our aim is to develop your people with the appropriate knowledge and competence that they need to perform better. Our approach to the development of people is “Learn by Doing”, so all learning takes place in the workplace with a bias towards practical application.

Once you have the knowledge and competence in place we help to support the continued optimisation of your business processes – this can be in the form of facilitated workshops or coaching and mentoring programmes. Our goal is the achievement of sustainable world leading competitiveness and profitability for all of our customers.
