MRO Today
One sure thing in Vegas

by Tom Hammel

“Psst! Wanna win $30 grand? How about $300 grand? Think I’m conning you? There are cons here, sure enough, and you can walk away right now. But consider this: what if I’m not one of them?”

It’s that “what if” that makes Las Vegas the number one destination on the planet. Thar’s gold in them thar hills after all — it’s just far less likely to fall into your hands than the dealer’s.

And every gambler has a “system,” that patented surefire system of winning that works perfectly — right up to the time they sit down at the table and are dealt that first hand.

We have a system, too. But this one really is a surefire winner. Spend three days in Las Vegas with us September 25 to 27 at Lean University and we promise you will walk away a winner, maybe not from the gaming tables, but with the knowledge and the tools to go back to your plants and hit those elusive jackpots of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in waste and inefficiency. This isn’t Monopoly money, either: It’s hard, documentable cash that you can roll back into the company for reinvestment or, yes, even profit.

Our roster of guest trainers and presenters is our best ever and includes Rolls-Royce, Hon Industries, NASA, Schneider Electric, Kaeser Compressor, Pentair, Chevron, UE Systems, Kolbe & Kolbe (profiled in this issue) and many more, all in one place, right on the Las Vegas Strip. Subjects to be presented include:
  • Value streaming your supply chain
  • Finding and producing savings in air systems
  • Power and energy management and operating costs
  • Creating the right metrics for improvement
  • Lean Six Sigma in manufacturing and maintenance
  • TPM
  • Identifying and eliminating waste with ultrasonics
  • And much more

Ask any champion and they’ll tell you the difference between winning and losing lies in the preparation. Pursuing and sustaining a lean work environment takes dedication to training throughout the organization, but the results are demonstrably worth the effort. It’s what separates winners from everyone else. Join us in Las Vegas and see for yourself how you can transform your company. If you have any questions, give me a call at 800-932-7732, ext. 219.

It’s a sure thing.
