No two businesses are the same. That is why we take a tailored approach: working closely with you to understand your goals, identify challenges, and co-create programmes that align with your needs and strategy.
The solution might be some in-house workshops, designed specifically to focus on your areas of concern. It might be sending some of your team on our recognised courses in Six Sigma, COTRI, EFQM, and Lean. This means your team gains practical skills that directly translate to real results, fast. But we don’t stop there. We can build fully customised, in-house improvement programmes tailored to your sector, your people, and your ambitions.
From hospitality and manufacturing to aerospace and services, our industry-specific programmes focus on what matters most: improving processes, strengthening leadership, digitising operations, and driving lasting impact.
For over 25 years, the Centre for Competitiveness (CforC) has partnered with and driven organisations across Northern Ireland and Ireland to excel, helping them become more efficient, more effective, more innovative, and more competitive. We’re here to empower you with the tools, expertise, and strategic support needed to drive productivity, innovation, and sustainable growth.
We don’t just consult, we deliver
