In response to feedback received following our lean training courses from clients, Aster launched its Lean User Group in April 2008.  

The lean user group has several objectives including:-

• Providing UK based companies with the opportunity and forum to network with other organisations
• To discuss and learn from best lean practice
• Joint problem solving to common lean implementation problems & issues
• Business co-operation between members 

 Corporate Membership benefits include:- 

• Factory visits – where a member company will open their facility for other companies to visit
• Lean Seminars (free to members) - presented by members for the benefit of other members
• Dinners & other social gatherings
• Lean Organisation of the Year Awards - November 2008
• Guest speakers from the lean community within the UK
• Access to articles and case studies provided by member organisations
• Discounts on Aster Training Lean Courses

Annual Subscriptions

Annual Subscription to the lean user group is based upon company headcount. All subscriptions are for 12 months from the date the subscription is taken out. The subscription entitles two delegates from each member organisation to attend events.

The events calendar for 2008 will be posted during April 2008.
