The meeting - at the giant VT shipbuilding plant in Portsmouth where the Royal Navy’s new Type 45 destroyers are being built - was an open debate convened to look at the challenges facing manufacturing’s leaders and itself led by bosses from VT, the CBI and the compressor-maker Compair.
Setting the scene for the debate, Lester said that in the last year, VT has made a £1.4 million investment in training, £500,000 of it on adult trainees.
While urging his fellow manufacturers not to ditch their history, he warned: “Whatever you’re doing right now, you will have to change [and ask] ‘what do we have to change next?’.” No strategy would work without exports, innovation, the application of lean manufacturing, workforce training, IT and investment in sales and marketing, he went on.
