When you come to these conferences there is a plethora of information that you are exposed to. The goal is to take 2-3 things away and implement them at your own sites. Whether it be a management thing, a process or a structural, mechanical thing. If you do that over the years, you’re going to incrementally make your system better.

The Network material is technical and is directly related to what we're working on in our daily business, so the impact is huge in regards to what we can use back at home, in our own companies.
Ole Sten Volland, CTO/Site Manager, Green Mountain AS
We've been Network members for quite a few years and we've always found it very beneficial. They are always trying to keep it up to date and get to a little bit broader market and that's been very helpful. We've enjoyed being a part of it. We've found it good for our company.
