Creating Value Through Lean Transformation

In celebration of SMAS turning 20, we’re hosting 20 Best Practice Visits (BPVs) throughout 2025.

These events are a great way to showcase manufacturing excellence across Scotland and provide an opportunity for likeminded businesses to learn, connect, and share knowledge.

Join us for our latest behind-the-scenes visit IKM Testing UK Ltd., where Lean thinking has driven a cultural shift and productivity gains, creating real value for the company.

More than a tour, this is a chance to see firsthand how a leading Scottish service company is using continuous improvement and people-powered change to shape its future.

Alongside the insight into IKM Testing UK Ltd, this visit will allow you to connect with like-minded leaders in Scottish manufacturers to gather real-world insights, spark new ideas, and take the next step on your own transformation journey.
