Inside an award-winning Centre of Excellence with OFS

What does a world-class manufacturing site look like when people, process and technology work together to deliver exceptional performance?

It’s a site where performance is visible, improvement is part of the daily routine, and teams have the data, discipline and tools to turn opportunities into measurable results. A site that sets the benchmark for others to follow, shares best practice across the business and continues to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

That is the vision behind an OFS Centre of Excellence.

OFS and AB World Foods were named Partnership of the Year at the 2026 Automate UK Awards. What began as a pilot on a single production line at AB World Foods in Leigh has developed into an award-winning partnership, with measurable improvements and established as a benchmark for manufacturing excellence.

Join Jonathan Newton and Thomas Nolan to discover what it takes to build a Centre of Excellence, how the OFS program works, what your site could gain and what it asks of your people and business.

We’ll finish with an open Q&A, including how to nominate a site for consideration as a future OFS Centre of Excellence.

Could your site set the standard for others to follow?

Speaker: Jonathan Newton, General Manager Europe, OFS and Thomas Nolan, Sales Director, Europe, OFS
