SUMMARY:QRM® Institute Silver course (D)
DESCRIPTION:The QRM® Institute Silver course combines theoretical knowledge of QRM® principles with practical applications through exercises and simulations. It illustrates the change from a cost-oriented traditional mindset (store floor or support services) to an agile QRM® cell organization that focuses on reducing cycle time. \nQRM® is not about working faster\, but about working better together. It is about simplifying workflows and streamlining company processes – both internal and external (suppliers and customers) – to create collaborative dynamics. \nThe main goal of QRM® is to grow the business by focusing on reducing lead times in all processes. QRM® reduces delays by eliminating unnecessary time from the customer’s perspective: the so-called “white space”. \nIf you are faced with increasingly individualized customer requests with short deadlines\, then QRM® is for you. \n\nObjectives of the Silver training\nUnderstanding the origin and the 4 basic principles of QRM®\nLearning techniques and tools for analyzing the lead time (MCT)\nLearning and implementing the laws of system dynamics\nLearn and implement the keys to a cellular organization\nBetter understand the dynamics of interpersonal interactions\, the keys to team development and the quick response leadership style\n\nDates \n19 October 2026 – 3:00–5:00 p.m. – Online onboarding \n21 October 2026 – 7:00–9:00 p.m. – 1st online training session \n22 October 2026 – 7:00–9:00 p.m. – 2nd online training session \n26 October 2026 – 28 October 2026 in person \n29  October 2026 Visit to a QRM company \nNovember 2026 – Follow-up and exam preparation

SUMMARY:QRM Silver day training series (B)
DESCRIPTION:Grow with QRM: shorter lead times\, lower costs and higher delivery reliability\nWould you like to shorten lead times\, reduce costs and improve your delivery reliability? During a 4 day QRM Silver training programme\, you will learn how to apply Quick Response Manufacturing within your own organisation. You will gain the principles\, methods\, tools and implementation skills needed to independently launch and guide a QRM project. \nThe training is organised by Sirris in collaboration with the QRM Institute and consists of nine knowledge modules\, spread across 4 day sessions (in Diepenbeek). The first half focuses on the fundamental principles\, methods and tools of QRM. The second half emphasises practical application\, implementation skills and change management. \nThe training is delivered by Belgian QRM experts: Joost Van Driessche\, Pascal Pollet and Ben Proesmans. \nFor whom?\nThis training programme is intended for professionals working in a production or industrial environment who want to achieve shorter lead times\, higher delivery reliability and reduced operational complexity.\nIt is especially relevant for: \n\nProduction\, operations and plant managers looking to reduce lead times\nTeam leaders and supervisors responsible for improvement initiatives\nSupply chain\, planning and logistics professionals seeking better control over lead times\, inventory and planning\nProcess\, lean and continuous improvement managers who want to apply QRM principles\nEngineering\, industrialisation and project managers\n\nNo prior knowledge of QRM is required\, but experience with production\, planning\, engineering or improvement projects will help participants apply the concepts more quickly within their own practice. \nWould you like to find out more about QRM? Read about it here \nOverview of knowledge modules\n\nModule 1: The power of time:\nHow time-based thinking offers new perspectives\, Manufacturing Critical-path Time (MCT)\nModule 2: Organisational structure: \nFocus Target Market Segment (FTMS)\, division into office and production cells\nModule 3: System dynamics:\nImpact of variability and utilisation rates\, the planning paradox\, optimal batch size\nModule 4: Company-wide deployment of QRM:\nLead time reduction with suppliers\, R&D and the impact on cost calculation\nModule 5: Social dynamics: teams and team development:\nTeam composition and development\, a new role for leadership\nModule 6: QRM simulation game:\nAnalysis of a simulated production environment and application of QRM principles\nModule 7: QRM implementation:\nAnalysis methods and change management\nModule 8: Case studies and testimonials:\nApplication of QRM in case studies\nModule 9: Applying QRM within your own company\n\nProgramme\nThe training is hold in Dutch. It starts at 09:00 and ends at 17:00. Participants are welcome from 8:30 onwards. Lunch is provided during all sessions. \n\n\n\n\nSession\n\n\nDate\n\n\n\nSession 1\n30 october 2026\n\n\nSession 2\n13 november 2026\n\n\nSession 3\n27 november 2026\n\n\nSession 4\n11 december 2026
