Course details

The Workforce Skills Qualifications (WSQ) Operations Management Innovation (OMNI) Programme is a joint initiative by the Singapore Institute of Manufacturing Technology (SIMTech) and the Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA). The objective is to train key personnel--engineers, managers and senior staff of companies--to be technology innovators to achieve manufacturing excellence. This is accomplished by promoting the use of operations management techniques and technologies that support a company's strategy. This will ensure that operations improvements are both effective (aligned to the company's strategy) and efficient (set to achieve the desired productivity gains).

About The WSQ OMNI Programme

The programme offers a proven Operations Management Innovation methodology (OmniMethodologyTM) based on R&D experience and proven through highly successful applications in various sectors of the manufacturing industry. It consists of two parts: classroom training and mentorship. The classroom training focuses on transferring knowledge in operations management and fundamentals behind the use of this methodology. The mentorship sessions reinforce the classroom learning by applying the said methodology to the student's company. During this on-site training, the participant will identify operations improvement areas, generate suitable initiatives, and develop implementation action plans based on productivity improvements, all while being mentored by SIMTech's trainers.

Uniqueness of the WSQ ONMI Programme

As operations management is a continuous improvement process; this programme equips students with the necessary knowledge and skills to systematically use the OmniMethodologyTM to continuously improve the effectiveness and efficiency of the operations conducted at their own companies.
