Project EPSILON for a Large Supply Chain Management Company

In line with TORQUE’s goal of developing quality people for the industry, we conducted a 6 month training programme for the executives of a leading SCM company in Chennai. The goal was to develop agents of change in the company using Lean principles by providing appropriate instruction, training and practical experience.

The programme was designed and delivered on three areas - Being a Good Human Being, Lean Management and Quality Management. Being a Good Human Being dealt with awareness revolution, behavioural aspects and soft skills. Lean Management covered the principles of the Toyota Production System with focus on waste elimination. Quality Management involved topics such as

economics of quality, problem solving tools, statistical process control, making quality happen, data presentation and measurement.

During the course 50% of the time was spent on real world project work at the company’s warehouses and also involved community work for all round development of the trainees. The projects were closely monitored by TORQUE and underwent rigorous reviews.

A team of 12 trainees underwent this programme and on completion they have all been deployed as change agents in various locations within the company.

ACADEMY / PEOPLE DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVE

We have been entrusted by a reputed North Indian multi - products multi - unit Group of Companies to exclusively develop executives and staff of all levels in the modern concept of Lean and Quality Management. Idea behind such a holistic program is to drive complete reforms so that the Group becomes world - class in all respects.

Project PELICAN for a Supply Chain Management Company

This was a week’s programme undertaken for management trainees of the company and with a compressed curriculum of our more comprehensive programme as covered in the EPSILON programme. Although, the programme was entirely classroom based there were ample interactive sessions, case studies, housekeeping drills and presentations by the participants to make the learning wholesome.

Learning on 5S at HOPE Foundation School in Chennai

A short half day 5S activity was conducted at HOPE Foundation at Chennai along with one of our clients. It was extremely encouraging to see how such a short programme could be used to drive home the importance of hygiene and cleanliness to the students, their parents and also the teachers. The very same day the school declared that from that day onwards it will be a plastic free zone.

HOPE SCHOOL BECOMES A PLASTIC FREE ZONE

Thanks to the initiative by Mr. S.K.Manna, Chief executive officer of Torque Management. Mr. Dipankar Ghosh, Sr. Consultant (lean and quality Management) of Torque and a team of thirty members from TVS logistics Services Limited led by Satesh Edwin, Asst. General Manager HR visited our school on 14th March – 2012, to guide the school staff and the students to maintain a clean environment in the school.

After the initial welcome speech students gave a check list of points about cleanliness, which was appreciated by the visitors. Mr. Aneesh from TVS Logistics introduced himself and gave a small talk about the program.
Mr. Manna took special interest to teach cleanliness awareness to teachers and explained how Japanese are following and adopting procedures to keep their environment clean.

All the team members were very enthusiastic and initiated cleaning procedure at the school. At first they segregated materials as useful, may be useful, unnecessary materials and then useful and may be useful materials were sorted out and arranged and cleaned thoroughly. It took nearly four hours for the team to complete.
