Thionville and the Fensch valley: the historic heart of Lorraine steelmaking, 20 minutes from our head office. SXE Consulting deploys Kaizen, PDCA, 5S and Six Sigma there with the proximity of a neighbour and 25 years of experience in the region.
Continuous improvement — Kaizen, PDCA, 5S, Six Sigma — optimises processes permanently by involving shop-floor teams. In Thionville and the Fensch valley we support every industry — steelmaking, metalworking, cross-border logistics or any other sector — and it answers a very concrete challenge: staying competitive in the face of energy costs and competition, without heavy investment. The good news: the gains are already in your workshops, not in new machinery.
