Tradition, passion and teamwork

A reflection on innovation of 2019

As we prepare for a 2020 which promises to be anything but stagnant, we report on site from Minermix SRL, leading producer of lime and lime products of South Italy where we spent a day with the management team learning about an industry dating as far back as 7000 BC and built on tradition and know-how passed on from each generation.

Approach Industry 4.0 by putting your know-how first

It is easy to get lost in the buzz words which orbit around the manufacturing industry regarding the new technology which continues to flood the market. Such rapid change is putting factory owners in a difficult position when planning for the long term by posing a new series of risks regarding investments in product, production, logistics, & the people which support them.

Since 2017, we have been collaborating with the School of Architecture & Engineering of Fribourg in a joint venture. OUR OBJECTIVE: to give manufacturers visibility into the many Industry 4.0 opportunities available and the confidence they need to act.

Celebrating 1 year of bringing innovation to the UAE

A look back on 1-year of client on boarding experiences in the Middle East

A little over a year ago, we learnt that no deal of relevant significance will ever be concluded virtually and that the handshake is still one of the key building blocks to the foundation necessary in forging a long term business relationship of trust, value and mutual satisfaction. This is especially true in the Middle Eastern culture where traditions passed from prior generations when doing business are still very much alive. Looking back one year later at the results, the relationships built and the never-ending creativity of a dynamic project team bringing to market a one-of-a-kind continuous improvement business solution across multiple cities and business lines still doesn't cease to amaze us.
