ICEES-Toyota Engineering Corporation to bring pioneering lean capabilities to Sri Lanka
Innovation Centre for Enterprise Excellence Solutions (ICEES Global) recently partnered with Toyota Engineering Corporation ( TEC) in Japan to bring lean management knowledge and capabilities to Sri Lanka, enabling individuals and organisations to learn from the pioneers in the industry.
ICEES Global will be initiating the first ever Toyota Production System (TPS) Training Programme on Lean Management in Sri Lanka on August 21st, conducted by Sensei Te t s u o Arikawa, former head of production support at Toyota Motomichi plant in Nagoya. Toyota Motor Corporation was the birthplace of lean management. Founded in 2002, TEC consist of professionals that have years of hands- on exposure in
implementing, improving, and sustaining these methodologies at Toyota.
Today, TEC is dedicated to spreading their expertise across the globe, and ICEES Global is the Partner and Corporate Member of TEC for Sri Lanka and the South Asian region.
ICEES Global facilitates numerous manufacturing and service-based organisations and professionals to continuously improve productivity and profita
bility through Lean Management, Six Sigma, and Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) methodologies.
Headed by its directors Lapitha Gunasinghe and Asanka Henegedara, both of whom authored Sri Lanka’s first lean business novel titled ‘ Lean Peraliya’ which garnered very high interest from the Sinhala speaking business community, ICEES Global consists of a dynamic, well experienced team of lean transformation coaches, with over 10 decades of collective expertise locally and regionally. ICEES actively engages in various industry sectors to maximise profitability and productivity, and minimize operating costs whist embracing culture transformation, all achieved by customized lean concepts.
Due to the lack of understanding of these concepts, many fail to realise that lean management is a complete practical solution for their existing problems. Over the years, ICEES Global has trained over 500 business leaders on this. ICEES Global has three strategic arms, namely ICEES Lean Academy, ICEES Business Support, and ICEES R&D.
