SUMMARY:Mid-West Lean Network Workshop 3: Value Stream Mapping
DESCRIPTION:[button color=”undefined” hover_text_color_override=”undefined” url=”https://www.shannonchamber.ie/events/mid-west-lean-network-workshop-3-value-stream-mapping/” text=”Register Here” color_override=””] \nIn order to create flow\, you must first see it. One of the best tools to see flow is value stream mapping. Value stream mapping is a visualization method of mapping the flow of value from raw material to customer. \nThe topic for Workshop #3 is Value Stream Mapping \nValue stream mapping is performed in the following manner: \n\nSelect product family\nCreate current state map\nCreate a future state map\, using lean techniques\nCreate an implementation plan for future state\nImplement the future state through structured continuous improvement activities.\n\nValue stream maps are created on the shop floor to identify process steps (process starting and ending points\, where flow stops\, and inventory accumulates). Data is gathered and documented on each process step\, cycle time\, changeover time\, uptime & number of operators. \nAs the future state map is developed\, targeted improvements will be found\, and a kaizen (star burst\, Continuous Improvement) event can be placed on that area. An implementation plan can comprise kaizen events\, tying each improvement to a business objective as a physical measurable goal is established to highlight when the goal is attained. Eventually\, a future state map will become the current state as the process continuously improves. \nValue stream mapping is an excellent way to get everyone to see their value stream and agree to eliminate waste. \nPresenters: \n\nMichelle Holland\, Head of HR/Transformation \, Cara Partners\nJennifer Stratton\, Lean Specialist\, Reagecon\n\nThis session is Free of Charge\, but registrations is essential.  \nThe link to join this webinar will be shared via email a day before the event. \nThe Mid-West Lean Network: the second largest regional lean network in Ireland\, after Waterford Institute of Technology’s Lean Enterprise Excellence Group\, launched in November\, was set up to strengthen and increase the existing culture of lean within the Shannon and the wider Mid-West region. Its aim is to enable each industry to broaden and strengthen their competitiveness through knowledge sharing and bench-marking against each other and different industries.

SUMMARY:IEA- Sustainable Supply Chains Training Programme
DESCRIPTION:IEA- Sustainable Supply Chains Training Programme\n \nThe Climate Action Bill 2021 legislates for the ambitious targets of reducing Ireland’s greenhouse gas emissions by 51% by 2030 and achieving carbon neutrality by 2050. This will require a significant change in the economy and every sector will be required to play its part. \nCompanies involved in importing and exporting goods and services face the unique challenge of accounting for and reducing emissions not just directly emitted through manufacturing or onsite energy use\, but also indirectly from their supply chains. Businesses who act early and adopt sustainable supply chain practices will ensure they are prepared for legislative requirements on accounting for their carbon footprint\, as well as benefiting from a greener public image and availing of new opportunities in the emerging green economy. \nThe IEA Sustainable Supply Chain training programme has been specially developed to offer practical\, actionable support to companies in relation to their supply chain emissions. The programme involves a series of half-day workshops designed to bring companies on a journey from understanding their carbon emissions right through to the practical steps needed to measure\, report and reduce their supply chain emissions\, and to adopt more sustainable procurement practices. Participants will each receive practical carbon measurement and reduction tools from the Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) for adoption within their organisations. \nThe programme is suitable for companies of any size and sector\, from companies just starting their sustainability journey to organisations further down the road to carbon neutrality who will benefit from integrating our sustainable supply chain tools into their existing sustainability strategies. \nThe IEA is offering a special introductory fee for one workshop: \nIEA Members: €250 / Non-Members: €350 \n  \nSustainable Supply Chains Programme:\n\nCarbon Literacy – 20/05/21\nCarbon Calculation and Reporting – 26/05/21\nCarbon Reduction – 09/06/21\nSustainable Procurement (Coming Soon)\n\n\n\n\nCourse Bundle Deals: Members (Special Introductory Offer) \n2 workshops: €450 \n3 workshops: €600 \nNon-Members (Special Introductory Offer) \n2 workshops: €600 \n3 workshops: €850\n\n\n\nFor more information or if you have any questions please contact Karen Hennessy or Paul Corbett on 01 661 2182 or training@irishexporters.ie

SUMMARY:EPA: Irish Manufacturing Research
DESCRIPTION:EPA: Irish Manufacturing Research\nIMR – PROBOT – The PROBOT project was undertaken by Irish Manufacturing Research (IMR) and Irish Composites Centre (IComp). The aim of this research was to investigate the potential uptake of a new composite created by IComp using Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) to create a Self-Reinforced Polymer\, as opposed to the Polypropylene Self Reinforced Polymers which are currently utilised on the market in various industries. It was decided to carry out research with PET because it is a material that is widely recycled. Such a polymer could therefore be created in part with recycled PET and thus be more circular \nDetails below:

SUMMARY:Cork Chamber Circular Economy Training for SMEs
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in exploring emerging opportunities in the circular economy and in gaining practical training and advise on how to apply circular principles to your business? Then this is the programme for you! \nEnterprise Europe Network and the Sustainable Cork Programme at Cork Chamber have teamed up with *MODOS to deliver a circular economy training programme to micro\, small and medium sized enterprises. \nThe programme will run on dates in February and March 2021\, with early registration strongly advised as participant numbers are limited (this is to ensure the opportunity for bespoke business advise throughout). For more information on dates and the content of modules click here. \nThe programme will be delivered virtually by expert trainers including Sust Hub at Clearstream Solutions\, Clean Technology Centre and Change by Degrees. Each 2.5 hour interactive session will be a mix of presentations\, best practice case studies\, exercises and discussion with time available to for more specific Q&A to help participants apply the learning to your business. \nWith the European Union introducing new policy and regulation for a low-carbon economy and the Irish government bringing in new Green Procurement standards\, Irish businesses need to understand and adapt to the transition from a linear to a circular economy. Doing so will help to future proof your business. \n\n\n\nWhat is the circular economy?\nOur current economic model is based on a linear ‘take-make-waste’ approach\, which is costly for businesses and bad for the environment. By contrast\, a circular economy is efficient and environmentally sustainable. In a circular economy\, products\, components and materials are kept in use for as long as possible. The principles of a circular economy and circular production models can be instrumental in exploring the opportunities to transform for example what might once have been considered as a waste material into a secondary raw material\, an approach that can increase efficiencies and even develop new secondary by-products and market opportunities. Supply and production chains essentially operate in ‘closed-loops’ making them less wasteful and more resilient.\n\n\n\nHow does the circular economy benefit businesses?\nAdopting circular economy principles can help your business:\n• Save money\, reduce waste and increase resilience\n• Boost competitive advantage and brand reputation\n• Unlock new business opportunities that also help the environment\n\nThis training is suitable for all businesses though is particularly relevant for those from the following sectors: construction and the built environment\, food\, retail\, manufacturing\, textiles and fashion\, electronics\, plastics and packaging.\n*MODOS is a joint initiative of Dublin City Council and the Waste Management Plan Lead Authority (WMPLA).
