Our objectives are to: provide a forum for collaboration and learning among members; provide resources to companies for training and growth; help members set continuous improvement benchmarks; and share information through a growing network of members. Our goals are to: increase the capacity of companies currently involved in high performance activities and increase the number of companies actively using high performance strategies. Currently there are 47 companies throughout Polk, Yamhill, and Marion counties participating in MWHPC activities. MWHPC is led by a strong steering committee which meets at least monthly to plan events, tours, workshops, and training for consortium members and other interested companies.
