Building Capability – Designing a System

Historically Foodstuffs have not held and maintained a ‘Format System’ and development of new stores and refurbishments have been quote adhoc with new stores taking on different floor area sizes and varying architecture. Whilst there has been a system for controlling on brand fixtures and fittings, they have not been documented well to allow them to be accessible for stores and repeatable.We are going to share some insights into how we have changed this by moving to a controlled Format pack and team that leads this and the journey to changing the culture of the business to use standards layouts and fixtures. Hosted by Gideon Keith FDINZ Guests: Ryan Ward, PDINZ, (ex Foodstuffs) Mandy Flett (ex Foodstuffs) Building Capability: Overarching Purpose of this D.Cast Series The Business of Design D.Cast is a discussion about running a design business or design in a business. We’re looking at a range of subjects but covering a single theme for each episode. We’re looking for insights, experience and anecdotes to share with the audience and we’ve prepared the questions below as thought/discussion starters. However, It’s less an interview and more a discussion. Hosted by Gideon Keith FDINZ and Ryan Ward PDINZ https://designersinstitute.nz/initiatives/dinz-podcast-series/
