TRAINING FOR EXCELLENCE

We have multiple full-time associates dedicated to leading our corporate Lean initiatives. Bassett Mechanical leaders have completed extensive Lean training, and each team member receives training before participating in an improvement event.

This training strengthens our ability to maintain an ongoing daily focus that drives decision-making and creates value for customers deep into every area of our organization.

“Lean draws people together to create sustainable solutions and trainable standards. It is a methodology that helps us problem solve and look at how we can bring more value to our customers.”

“Because of our preplanned maintenance, we seldom have equipment break-downs and can spend more time producing on-time fabrications for our customer.”
