Live Panel: What high-performing VA/VE programs are doing differently: Thursday, February 2nd
It’s a new year and many engineering companies face brand new — higher than ever — cost down targets. Inflation continues to erode gross margins and the status quo doesn’t cut it any more.
And yet… there’s still so much low hanging fruit. That’s why, in 2023, we hope to see engineering companies approach cost reduction with the same rigor that they approach sales, on-time delivery, and quality KPIs.
This panel will focus on practical tips to strengthen your VA/VE programs and culture.
Join Adam Keating, CEO at CoLab, and cost engineering leaders from Dematic, Adient, and Rivian as they discuss:
- Cost reduction in an inflationary environment
- The roles of engineering, procurement, and finance in high-performing cost down programs
- How to clone your best VA/VE teams
- What’s stopping your VA/VE event prep from being fast and easy
- How to get real follow-through on ideas
- Avoiding the “we already thought of that” trap
- Examples of successful VA/VE initiatives
Date: February 2 at 1pm EST (virtual)
