Cotton Council International (CCI) just introduced COTTON USA SOLUTIONS TM , the industry’s first-of-its-kind technical consultancy program that helps mills and manufacturers achieve greater productivity, process efficiency and ultimately profit for their businesses. The program will officially launch on October 1, 2020.
Over the past two years, COTTON USA has established a consulting team composed of mill and spinning experts from around the world. This team, which is overseen by industry expert Joerg Bauersachs, now leads COTTON USA SOLUTIONS TM, bringing together decades of experience, global knowledge and unrivaled research in this leading technical consultancy.
“COTTON USA SOLUTIONS TM is designed so that mills and manufacturers can optimize the use of U.S. cotton with cutting-edge offerings to transform their businesses – profitably,” said CCI Executive Director Bruce Atherley. “Given the industry’s current state due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the resources and expertise of this program are more relevant to our partners than ever.”
This new program is launching with five unique, data-informed offerings that include: mill studies, technical seminars, a mill exchange program, one-on-one mill consultants, and a mill mastery course.
These solutions are designed to improve productivity and ultimately profitability at the operations level with U.S. cotton. The suite of solutions available in the program will continue to expand to include the latest, cutting-edge data, technologies, and protocols from U.S. cotton and will be rolled out in phases.
Offerings include a mix of partner-specific and standardized options, and will be available virtually, in addition to in-person, as COVID-19 restrictions continue. Mills and manufacturers, including COTTON USA licensees, must qualify for the program. Upon qualification, licensees will have complimentary access, and non-licensees can access for a nominal fee.
COTTON USA SOLUTIONS TM , which was announced today at the virtual edition of COTTON USA’s signature annual Cotton Days event, will open applications for qualification on October 1. To learn more about the program and qualifying, visit: https://cottonusa.org/solutions.
