Need 4 Speed is a time and motion study in miniature, a frenetic table based intervention that actively encourages participants to review and improve performance. Top Gear for the tabletop!

Faced with a jumble of model components teams must switch into overdrive to assemble a range of ‘snap together’ concept cars in record time. Optimising flow is critical to success as teams are challenged to form ultra efficient assembly lines and shave seconds off successive build times. The pressure is further intensified with the realisation that each car has it own specific style and bolt on extras.

Quality is everything; the final output from sedan to sports utility vehicle must meet exacting customer expectations. Speed is rewarded but small mistakes can see teams slipping down the leader board.

As the learning progresses and each stage is reviewed, the focus moves from individual team times to sharing best practice between teams to achieve the best possible aggregate production time. Final group times are measured against previous participants ‘best ever’ results.

Never has there been a more important time to explore process improvement, Need 4 Speed is a great platform to ignite discussion within a context of practical fun. The uber cool design and tactile nature of the car models are guaranteed to bring out the inner child in all who take part.

Testimonial

    "I thought I`d drop you a mail to say thank you very much for a really great teambuilding event. The feedback and enthusiasm from our people has been outstanding. All four Dream Team members were fantastic and demonstrated professionalism, understanding, patience, humour and lots of energy. Special mention to Jene and Simon who also ran the Sunday morning brilliantly and attended my session on Saturday morning. I can now officially say that you are now considered as the main supplier for these kind of events in South Africa. Keep me posted on new products and ideas you are developing."
