Lean manufacturing is a total business philosophy built on four major principles: value analysis, flow, just-in-time, and perfection. Learn how integrated application of these principles can raise your company’s performance-in terms of value delivery to your customers, total cost of production, product quality, lead times, inventory turns, production flexibility, floor space needs, in-house technology development, labour utilization, safety, and employee satisfaction-to world class levels.

My management courses cover the lean philosophy in depth along with the key supporting tools and practices for successful implementation.
