Understanding and Implementing Lean Manufacturing
Program Description
If your company is under increasing pressure to reduce costs and improve delivery, then consider the benefits of Lean Manufacturing - an integrated business approach to driving out non-value added activities from the customer delivery cycle in your operations. Lean Manufacturing is a tried and tested methodology that helps companies respond swiftly and profitably to changes in customer demands.
In just two days you will learn how the implementation of Lean Manufacturing helps companies become more competitive. You will gain a hands-on appreciation of how high levels of work in process (WIP) and bottlenecks prevent flexibility and reduce speed. You'll also discover why a multi-functional approach to manufacturing is critical to successful implementation of Lean Manufacturing in your operation.
Simply said, Lean Manufacturing is the best way to systematically approach reducing cycle time across your company. Find out how your organization can benefit!
