🌟 Excited to Announce Our New Publication! 🌟 I'm thrilled to announce the publication of our new article: "Design for Lean 5.0: Integrating Lean Requirements and Parameters into Production Systems in an Industry 5.0 Context". Traditionally, companies rely on applying Lean tools during the use phase to identify and remedy waste. However, this approach often faces significant challenges, such as: ⚙️Constraints imposed by the initial system design, ⏳High costs and time requirements for implementing Lean tools, and 🔄Resistance to organizational change. This highlights the need for a proactive shift in mindset: integrating Lean requirements from the design phase. 💡 Our research supports designers in creating sustainable, human-centered, and adaptable production systems that require minimal Lean application while maximizing waste reduction. By exploring the synergy between Lean concepts and Industry 5.0 principles, we have extracted more than 100 Lean requirements and parameters aligned with Industry 5.0 goals. This work breaks new ground by moving beyond traditional Lean 4.0 approaches and emphasizes the alignment of Lean tools with Industry 5.0 principles, such as sustainability, human-centricity, and resilience, from the early design stages. 📖 You can read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/eMaG3pK6. Looking forward to sharing insights and engaging in discussions on this subject! 🌱💡 #Lean5_0 #Industry5_0 #ProductionSystemDesign #Lean_Requirements, #Lean_Parameters #Sustainability #human_centricity #Resilience

The Future of Moroccan Steel Industry Chapter IV: Developing Local Skills for a Thriving Steel Sector As Morocco aims to strengthen its position in the global steel industry, building local expertise and technical skills is crucial. A skilled workforce is essential for innovation and competitiveness. This article highlights strategies to cultivate talent and enhance the steel sector's ecosystem. Enhancing Education and Training Technical programs in metallurgy, material sciences, and industrial engineering at universities and vocational schools can prepare students for careers in steel production. Partnerships between academic institutions and steel companies should provide hands-on training through internships and workshops to bridge theory and practice. Creating Steel Training Centers Dedicated centers offering certifications in Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) operations, automation, and sustainable practices would ensure a steady supply of skilled workers while upgrading existing talents. Global Knowledge Transfer Collaborations with international experts and exchange programs can expose Moroccan professionals to advanced technologies and best practices, accelerating the adoption of global standards. Promoting Research and Development R&D hubs focused on steel production and energy efficiency can drive innovation, particularly in optimizing local resources like manganese, coal, and quartz. Partnerships between research centers and industry players can create solutions for local challenges. Retaining Local Talent Offering competitive salaries, career growth opportunities, and incentives like tax benefits can discourage brain drain and retain skilled workers within the local industry. Empowering SMEs Supporting SMEs that provide maintenance, equipment, and logistics will strengthen the ecosystem supporting the steel industry. By investing in education, R&D, and partnerships, Morocco can build a skilled workforce to drive its steel sector toward sustainability and global competitiveness. M.H

I saw a post a few days ago on LinkedIn rankings in Algeria and the Arab world created by some companies. Even if the initiative is of good intentionally it exclusively commits those companies. Here’s why you should focus on what matters. 1/ When companies publish rankings on LinkedIn, it primarily reflects their perspective and doesn’t necessarily represent an objective measure of the impact or influence of the listed individuals. 2/ These rankings can sometimes include highly important figures like ministers in top positions, raising questions about the authenticity of their actual influence on the platform. 3/ Unlike these lists, LinkedIn's "Social Selling Index" (SSI) provides an objective assessment of your performance in terms of personal and professional branding. The SSI is divided into four essential pillars: establishing your professional brand, finding the right people, engaging through relevant insights, and building trust-based relationships. Each pillar is scored, and your overall score can help you identify specific areas to improve your visibility and effectiveness on LinkedIn. By focusing on these pillars, you can actively influence your ability to generate leads and build a strong professional network. A high SSI score can advantageously position you on LinkedIn, independent of the subjective and often fluctuating rankings published by companies. The SSI is regularly updated, which allows for an accurate representation of your dynamism and adaptability on the platform. This score goes up and down according to your activity Many professionals underestimate the importance of this score and overlook the opportunities it can open in terms of networking and sales. Improve your SSI by focusing on these four pillars starting today.

The Future of Moroccan Steel Industry chapter III. Overcoming Challenges in Developing Morocco's Raw Materials for the Steel Industry Morocco's steel industry has significant potential, driven by rising demand from infrastructure projects. However, key challenges must be addressed, particularly in developing local raw materials and energy sources. By investing in coal, manganese, quartz, and renewable energy, Morocco can boost its steel sector and reduce reliance on imports. Leveraging Local Coal from Jerada Morocco's coal reserves in Jerada remain underutilized. While coal played a vital role in the past, modern enrichment plants could optimize its quality for use in steel production. Although Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs) are less coal-dependent, coal remains crucial in several processes. Investing in coal valorization would reduce energy costs and support local steel producers. Manganese: A Vital Resource Morocco holds significant manganese reserves, primarily in the southern and central regions. Manganese is critical for producing steel alloys like silicomanganese and ferromanganese, which improve steel’s strength. Developing local processing of manganese into these alloys would decrease reliance on imports and make Morocco more competitive globally. Unlocking Quartz for Ferrosilicon Morocco is also rich in quartz, essential for producing ferrosilicon, which enhances steel properties. Yet, the country lacks local ferrosilicon production capacity. Establishing processing facilities would help meet domestic demand and offer a valuable export product. Energy Investments: Driving Sustainable Growth Energy is crucial to Morocco’s steel industry, which is energy-intensive. High energy costs have limited industrial growth. By investing in renewable sources like solar and wind, Morocco can reduce these costs and make steel production more sustainable. Its natural resources in solar and wind provide a perfect opportunity to modernize the steel sector. Towards a Self-Sufficient Steel Industry To fully realize its potential, Morocco needs to invest in local raw materials and energy. Enriching coal, manganese, and quartz resources, coupled with renewable energy investments, will reduce import dependency, making Morocco’s steel sector more resilient and globally competitive. By focusing on sustainability, Morocco can position it self as a leader in green steel production. M.H
