MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT:
In addition to the changes in the APICS logo and Organizational focus was an increase in Society Dues of $15.00 that took effect January 1st. Please note that the entire increase you will see on your next billing cycle is due to this increase only. The local chapter dues have not changed.
Last month we were treated to an excellent presentation on the “Lean Transformation” at Ariens. Paul Leao, who is one of the Lean Managers at Ariens, gave an interesting insight into the four year journey the company has gone through, and the demonstrated results it has had on the “bottom line”. There were many questions about details by the PDM attendees, which is always a positive indicator on how successful a program is.
I want to make you all aware that our CPIM Review Classes
will be moving from Vollrath to Bemis Company in
Please mark you calendars now for our March 16th
PDM. The featured event is a tour of Plenco in
I look forward to seeing many of you at both of these PDM’s.
