Project Management

Poor integration, leadership and management of projects are one of the biggest causes of high waste, cost and stress in our industry and frequently lead to damaged customer relationships.

Lean QCD’s approach to Project Management is based on our experience on all sides of projects and programmes within the automotive industry, from both customer and  supplier perspectives.

We have managed in excess of 50 projects to launch, fully meeting their targets of on time, in full, to budget and able to deliver profit now and in the future.

Balancing project elements

The 3 core elements of a project (Content, Cost & Time) are unbreakably linked & remain tied together throughout the project.

Our mantra of managing the people and not the tasks enables Project Managers to actively drive their projects whilst proactively managing the inevitable changes and the resulting risks, leading to a more integrated approach giving improved results.
