Factory Improvement Toolset (FIT)

FIT can be utilized as a stand-alone toolset or to complement other training programmes to build operational and technical skills and capacity of factories. The toolset was designed to be used by factory teams consisting of managers, supervisors and workers to encourage continuous improvement and drive action. With more than 70 available tools to choose from, factories can customize a programme that suits their needs. See the new "HR and People-Skills" online modules below!

FIT builds on internationally recognized approaches such as lean manufacturing and 5S. The methodology enables manufacturers to reach more personnel than a conventional training, whilst minimizing interference to production realities. The easy-to-use methodology makes it possible to rapidly scale for larger cohorts of trainees across multiple production facilities.

FIT modules comes with complimentary materials that can be implemented in factories day-to-day operations in an accessible and practical way. Download the Annexes section to maximise FIT trainings potential.

Guidance materials are available on how to best measure the impact and success of FIT trainings. Effectively monitoring the FIT process allows you to fully experience the impact of trainings and ways forward for your workplace. For complete monitoring tools, download from the Supporting Materials section.
