NMIM TRUST Action Lab

The NMIM TRUST Action Lab was launched with the aspiration of 'Empowering Economy through Trusted Traceability and Reliable Measurement System'. The Lab consisting of 18 staff (a combination of NMIM, SIRIM Group Strategic Planning, Group Performance Management Office and Group Marketing & Regional Office) together with the Champion, Lab Leader and Deputy Lab Leader worked very hard for 12 days from 8 to 24 January 2020 in a brainstorming process to identify the '3-ft plan' for NMIM to implement within 5 years. Under the guidance of 6 facilitators led by Prof. Madya Ir. Dr. Zuhairi Hajj Baharudin and the smooth management of the program by the Secretariat, NMIM TRUST Action Lab had successfully produced 5 Key Strategies, 18 'Initiatives' and 50 '3-ft Plan'.

We were very pleased to welcome Mr. Hairil Yahri Yaacob, MITI Deputy Secretary General (Investment) who took a time off despite his busy schedule to attend the session and also delivered a few words.
