• Have initial success then regression?

• Some improvement then failures?

• Your initiatives going nowhere?

LST – Solutions will conduct a review of your business and report on the best approach, methodology and projects to run to gain quick long-lasting results

Alex Lester

I have an extensive career in Engineering and Manufacturing in the UK and Australia.

Business improvement is my passion, a hobby and a career, with management experience in large multinational companies such as Ford and Pilkington Glass and small to medium manufacturers.

Regardless of the challenge LST can help in Engineering companies, FMCG, Food manufacturing, warehousing and distribution.

We utilise all the tools from LEAN and Six Sigma add discipline, and develop simple to use and maintain management systems and business improvement programs.

LST and its employees have a pragmatic approach to life and business and an eye for an opportunity to improve processes, reduce costs and improve business outcomes.

We strongly believe in a fast turnaround for projects and so a quick payback for the company we partner with.

We have implemented solutions in large companies across Australia including:

Stork Cooperheat - Integrated mgmt. system for Quality, OHS and Environment

Westpac Operations - Quality and LEAN system for managing applications

Qld Workcover - Six Sigma and Training and projects for senior staff

Yancoal - Developed all operating procedures up to Board Mgmt.

Medicraft Hill – Rom - Quality Management System

St George - Assisted in implementing a workable Customer service Dept

TEXO - Group General Manager

No company is too large or small for us to not get excited about being a part of your improvement journey.

Gert Van Der Merwe

I have over 25 years of experience in R&D Engineering Industry where I have worked on various projects. I have managed teams and worked part of teams in the following industry. Automotive, Mining (Oil and Gas, Hard rock an Coal), Medical, Commercial and Military field.

I have been involved with full life cycle development. This included planning, budget execution and feedback. I have also been involved in niche sections where task driven development was required.

I have worked on vast projects ranging from body electronics to full system integration. I have designed and accessed Safety Levels of multiple systems

My engineering skills are embedded software (8 Bit to 32 Bit processors) with embedded linux and hardware design (analogue, digital, mixed signals and RF). From a design criteria I have obtained my CID approval. I have also exposure to mixed technology in CPB design (Flex rigid, multi-layer PCB (12 Layers), Wire bonding and Ceramic substrate)

I have a high success rate to deliver projects on time and within budget constraints.

LST Live Line Indicator

The high risk of working on active switch board are increasing as electricians and technicians are operating on them or in proximity of them. The generally do not pose danger to the public. As Technicians and Electricians are working on these the exposure to live line working is increasing. As more and more guide lines and procedures are put in place human nature starts to set in. The ability to remember, the due diligence of following the procedures to the letter and just normal mistakes make the exposure to electrocution more relevant.

LST Solutions has now designed its own solution to assist the electrician or any trained person to quickly and easily see if the switch panel he wants to perform his duties are active. If then the unit is not in the state that is required, he can quickly see, act and respond to the indication prior commencement of his task on the relevant panel.

The LST Live Line Indicator (Predator) quickly indicate the 1 - 3 phases connected, Indicated the missing phases as well as indicates the Measured Voltage from Each phase

The Live Line Indicator (Raptor) provides all the data from the Predator but also can provide phase rotation, each phase load, power factor cloud connection capability.

The Live Line indicator are installed in a normal DIN rail and provide a remote mountable LCD display.
