QMI Productivity and Improvement (P&I)

IMPROVES MANUFACTURING AND RELATED INDUSTRIES THROUGH THE INTEGRATION OF WORLD CLASS BEST PRACTICES DELIVERED BY EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONALS.

The importance of productivity and improvement

QMI Productivity and Improvement helps manufacturers implement best practice processes, innovative techniques and world-leading technologies to improve our customers’ performance.

QMI Productivity and Improvement assists companies improve the uptake of proven practices and technologies specifically helping manufacturers, particularly SMEs, get started and continue on the journey to excellence.

The first step on the journey to excellence is to heighten the awareness or benefits of a particular technology or practice. To continue the journey, a subsidised benchmark is available through QMI P&I and its partnership with the Queensland Department of State Development, Infrastructure and Planning (DSDIP). P&I partners with the Federal Government’s Enterprise Connect program, which offers business reviews and access to Federal Government subsidised programs.

The QMI Productivity and Improvement division’s business model is characterised by two complementary strategies:

  • addressing market failure in the diffusion and uptake of new technologies (‘hard’ and ‘soft’)
  • leading industry to improve performance by the adoption of world class practices

Subject to eligibility criteria QMI P&I provides a number of government-supported programs and services available for manufacturers to assist them becoming more innovative, more efficient and more productive.

Our capabilities

  1. ENGAGING STAFF IN THE BUSINESS
  2. IMPROVING PRODUCTIVITY AND REDUCING WASTE
For clients to successfully grow across any of these two capabilities, they need to follow the journey to excellence model, which commences with an awareness and understanding of a particular issue, an assessment of how the issue can be addressed and then the implementation of a solution.

The following products are delivered by QMI P&I across each of the steps of the journey to excellence. Please contact QMI P&I on info@qmisolutions.com.au if you would like to commence your journey with them.
