Tour Agenda:

Local Enterprise Office Kilkenny and Engineering the South East are delighted to announce an Adman Steel Factory Tour event highlighting Lean methods that have been implemented and the direct benefits that Adman Steel Sheds have seen. This collaboration is in conjunction with Engineers Week and Local Enterprise Week 2024.

The Factory Tour starts at 8.40am with a quick meet and greet with your hosts followed by joining us with all staff members at our Daily Morning Meeting. After the meeting the tour will then take you through Adman Steel's offices and factory showcasing Lean processes and principles at every step of the way. Adman staff will walk you through their improvements from Ideas to Implementation. These improvements will showcase efficiencies gained and time saved through the Lean practices.

The tour finishes at 12.00pm. Questions are welcome throughout the tour and there will be sufficient time at the end for additional questions also.
