WINNING formula - WGLL - TRACC

A BRIGHT new Look
SINCE CREATING OUR CCI AND TRACC LOGOS MORE
THAN A DECADE AGO, MUCH HAS CHANGED IN TERMS OF
OUR OFFERING, MARKETS AND OF COURSE,
MARKETING AND DESIGN TRENDS.
Therefore, CCI took the bold step of updating its corporate
image. We wanted to highlight our global penetration in 55
countries, our emphasis on people, practices and results, as
well as the value and
dynamism that TRACC
offers our growing client
base. The new logos, we
hope, will be a just
reflection of these issues.
What does good look like
This probably rates as the
most frequently asked
question CCI has had to
answer during its 15 years
in World Class Manufacturing. Though the TRACC toolkit
certainly has placed and guided clients on the journey to WCM,
users wanted to see more of what their peers were doing at
various TRACC implementation stages. Guided by this appeal,
CCI established a web-based visual knowledge bank in its quest
to create a global TRACC community.
The recently launched What Does Good Look Like (WGLL)
website (www.etracc.net) forms part of a three-pronged offering
to TRACC clients. Apart from full access to the site, community
members will receive a PowerPoint presentation containing all
contributing clients’ visual data submissions every six months,
as well as a copy of the annual Journal of Best Practices.
We invite you to visit the site, send feedback, make your
submissions or join the online discussion group and become
part of a growing WCM community.
