1) Book review: "Lean Thinking" by Womak and Jones

This thought-provoking book builds on Womak and Jones’s previous ideas on the supply-chain improvement, and applies them to the issue of improving consumer service-provision. Its non-technical style will suit a wide readership, from small business owners to senior executives in large organisations, who seek to improve the service they give to their consumers. It will also prove useful for practitioners who seek to understand the latest thinking from two of the recognised leaders in the field. Read more...

2) DSDM Atern Framework

Agilier was pleased to be present at the launch of DSDM Atern framework on 24th April at the Café Royal in London. Atern is the culmination of practitioners’ experiences drawn from a wide range of public- and private-sector projects since 1994. This unparalleled expertise has resulted in a robust, but agile framework that can be successfully applied across a variety of organisational and project contexts. Agilier provided invaluable input to the new framework – a framework that seems likely to become the de-facto standard for project delivery in the UK.

All best wishes for the month ahead.

Kind regards,

Marcus Price
