MEC 2010 Schedule

The MAXA Manufacturing Excellence Community Event (MEC) was officially launched in 2009 as part of our initiative to transform MAXA from an annual Award event to a continuous journey to promote manufacturing excellence culture in Singapore. The introduction of MEC has enriched the MAXA programme, and created a platform for manufacturing-related companies to:

  • Share and cross learn best manufacturing practices
  • Develop strong networks within the manufacturing community
  • Stay engaged with MAXA as a continuous journey

Testimonial

“It was an exceptional opportunity to see a world class facility and learn more about their lean transformation journey. For me personally it was a very inspirational visit. It is a great asset to have a company such as Tetra Pak in our midst’s when they are so willing to help and share their learning. Tetra Pak’s success is an example to many of us who have similar competitive challenges and leverage their people and skills to create a competitive advantage. In my opinion, this is exactly what we want to be encouraging. I hope we can continue to leverage their openness for accelerated learning across the manufacturing sector in Singapore. After this flavour, I very much look forward to visiting other plants in the future.” - Mr. Crichton Waddell, plant manager of Kimberly-Clark South Asia who attended the Tetra Pak plant tour.
