Jaguar Land Rover Visit - Experience Operational Excellence

Go behind the scenes of Castle Bromwich, the home of Jaguar, to see our state-of-the-art production facility with our guided tour and discover how the operation has developed from manufacturing Spitfire aeroplanes during the 1940s to today's iconic supercars.

Delegates will gain an exclusive insight into the best-in-class manufacturing practices adopted by Jaguar Land Rover. The visits will be hosted by members of the senior management team who discuss both the process and management challenges they faced in the journey to becoming a centre of excellence.
