On sustaining a continuous improvement with a kaizen suggestion scheme Agustin said: “It’s truly motivating to see our employees’ active participation in the PIME 4.0 program, as it demonstrates how the culture of continuous improvement is permeating the organization. The growth in the number of PIMEs submitted constantly challenges us, both in their management and in our focus on providing the necessary resources for their implementation. Furthermore, we found it very interesting to design a recognition system for these implemented ideas, one that monitors the maturity of the SPE and is key to motivation, where everyone can see the tangible benefits of their participation. In this sense, we see how employees integrate the generation of improvement ideas into their daily work, as they can then see them implemented in their jobs. This fills them with pride, both for the value provided and for feeling heard and seeing the changes taking place. Without a doubt, the Continuous Improvement Team has progressed and developed significantly since the implementation began, and Daniel Andreu’s guidance has been key throughout this process. We are convinced that we are on the right path and that we must continue moving forward, strengthening our culture of continuous improvement, based on the development of all the people who are part of Escorial.”
