Becoming a Host with Onsite Insights

Onsite Insights has acquired a distinguished list of successful and award winning hosts committed to sharing their experience and knowledge. Becoming a host company is a significant undertaking but one which we believe will deliver real benefits to your company as well as raising your profile within British Industry.

As a host company, we ask for a minimum of two visits per year. We work with you to arrange these visits at your convenience and help with designing the schedule for the day. Our team will undertake the administration surrounding the visit whilst our host companies do what they do best, focusing on the exchange of best practice initiatives.

We invest a great deal of time in identifying suitable hosts and offer our hosts companies administrative and strategic support.

Host Benefits – what’s in it for me?

• Recognition as exemplars of best practice
• Exchange of experience and ideas with other companies
• Benchmarking
• Exposure to other sectors, networks and potential partners
• Employee motivation
• Reminder of achievements
• Encouraging employees to network and look externally for opportunities and solutions
• Marketing and promotion through Onsite Insights activities
• Free visits to other participating host companies
• Structured feedback from visitor questionnaires

Our promise to you…

To ensure the calibre of your visitors and the quality of your visits, we have a few hard and fast rules:

• The number of visitors attending from any one Company is limited to ensure networking opportunities for others
• The programme is targeted at senior level managers and visitors must be in position to implement change within their own organisation
• You are entitled to free visits on the Manufacturing Insights programme
• Visitor objectives for attending must be driven by an honest desire to learn about best practice – not as an opportunity to see product demonstrations or pursue sales
• All hosts have the right of veto of any individual or group

“Woburn Safari Park has been an Onsite Insights host since 2004. Every time we act as host we learn something as the visiting delegates contribute their ideas and own experience to the issues we flag up and cover. It is also invaluable to get our people away to other businesses involved with Onsite Insights, it keeps people fresh and it helps us maintain the momentum to our programme of continuous improvement.”
Chris Webster, Chief Executive, Woburn Safari Park

“Being a host company gives us the opportunity to health check our performance against other enlightened companies – companies that are interested in best practice. It also allows us to raise our profile in the national market place in a positive and effective way.”
Bill Munn, Director Best Practice, Thomas Vale Construction Plc
