Teaching Factory

At the heart of UEES lies Unipart's thinking and processes. 'The Unipart Way' is a philosophy of working that encourages everyone within the organisation to work together to solve problems, seek continuous improvement and contribute as stakeholders in the business.

We consider our employees to be our greatest asset. It's their commitment, enthusiasm and ideas that are fuelling our success, both in terms of our core manufacturing business and in establishing new business streams.

Our experience is a valuable business commodity, which is why we set up 'The Teaching Factory' in 2006, as part of Unipart Expert Practices (UEP) Manufacturing consultancy. This concept enables us to provide hands-on lean manufacturing experience, then help participants apply learned problem solving techniques within their own organisations. We are a true learning organisation and our factory in Coventry is a Teaching Factory. We invest heavily in the training and development of our people and we look to develop our own pipelines of talent into all levels of the organisation. We have many examples of employees having developed highly successful careers with our company.

Such has been the concept's success, that in just 12 months, 14 sites have been established around the globe, with more to follow. People & Culture >
