• Staying Lean: Thriving, Not Just Surviving. Company Background. The Journey to Lean Below the Waterline. Above the Waterline. Conclusions.

In my first contacts with Professor Peter Hines at Cardiff University and Chris Butterworth at S.A. Partners, I became convinced that the holistic approach they had developed was the concept I had sought. After having worked with them for many years now and seen the great successes we have achieved at Cogent Power, I am even more convinced that this is the way a business (any business—and not just automotive) should be run.—Marcel Schabos, Cogent Power MD, 2003–2007
