Agile Manufacturing Society

About us

At the Agile Manufacturing Society, we believe in paving the way toward a dynamic, sustainable future by advocating for and advancing agile manufacturing methods. We envision a world where businesses—large corporations and small-to-medium enterprises alike—thrive through rapid adaptation, continuous improvement, and collaborative innovation. Our efforts bring together thought leaders, practitioners, educators, and policymakers to create a more responsive and inclusive manufacturing landscape.

Agile manufacturing isn’t just for industry giants. By embracing agile principles, SMEs can streamline their operations, respond to changing market conditions, and adopt cutting-edge production methods without sacrificing quality or incurring prohibitive costs. Small and growing companies, often the backbone of local economies, stand to gain a competitive edge by integrating flexible, customer-centric processes that allow them to scale efficiently, seize emerging opportunities, and remain resilient amid global uncertainties.

Our mission

Our mission centers on four core pillars

Join us in cultivating a vibrant, adaptive, and prosperous future for manufacturing worldwide.

Informing the Public Through Media Coverage:

We share success stories, insights, and expert analyses to educate the public on the transformative potential of agile manufacturing. By showcasing real-world examples—especially from SMEs—we inspire innovation and foster a shared understanding of best practices.

Promoting Inclusion in Training and Teaching:

We partner with academic institutions, training providers, and community organizations to develop accessible, inclusive educational resources. Whether you’re an established manufacturer or a young entrepreneur just starting out, we believe everyone should have the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of agile methodologies and apply them to their own operations.

Driving Research and Development:

We invest in forward-thinking research projects that explore new technologies, data-driven strategies, and sustainable materials. Our R&D initiatives specifically consider the unique challenges SMEs face, ensuring that agile solutions remain attainable for companies of all sizes.

Advocating to Policymakers and Administrators:

We engage with government agencies and decision-makers to shape policies that encourage agile adoption. By championing supportive frameworks, we help foster a thriving environment where both major industry players and SMEs can excel.
