Ornua Way White Paper

“Ornua – The Home of Irish Dairy” is an agri-food commercial co-operative that markets and sells dairy products globally on behalf of its members. This White Paper presents the following:

• How a large organisation in dispersed global locations established effective operational excellence in a relatively short period with a motivated, small, focused and flexible team.
• How establishing an operational excellence programme supported by simple governance and a clear vision, resulted in large cash savings, improved capacity and capability that brought about a real culture change that is driving the organisation past €3bn sales and beyond.
• Capability and capacity has increased at the sites, whilst cost savings in the region of €2 million were realised in 2016 (€4m annualised).
