Seeing technology in action!

Giving Canadian executives a chance to see how others meets manufacturing challenges is the goal behind the Technology Visits Program, sponsored by Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME) and the National Research Council - Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC-IRAP).

It leads to a solid understanding and a rapid application of new learning.  That's what the Technology Visits Program is all about.

If your company is looking to increase production, reduce costs, improve quality or get products to market faster, TVP provides unique opportunities to visit other manufacturers who are already using innovative techniques and processes.

Since its launch in 1994, over 10,000 senior level executives have visited host plants across the country.

The program is open to anyone who directly influences manufacturing policy and processes in their company, providing they are not direct competitors of the Host company.  The tours generally take about a half-day. 

The variety of participating plants allows visitors to see everything from the latest in cellular manufacturing, lasers, robotics, and Lean Manufacturing to new team-based production techniques.  The technology is discussed and described in terms of how it fits into production schedules, inventory control, order shipments and other manufacturing concerns.
