| Description: | What does your business need? Do you need to gain an advantage over competitors in your manufacturing environment? Do you need to improve quality, cost, lead-time and customer satisfaction to compete successfully in your marketplace? Do you need to integrate high-performance production methods and technologies to improve profits, strengthen your competitive advantages, and grow your business?
Join us for a hands-on workshop that guides participants through the transition from a traditional manufacturing environment to a lean, world-class enterprise. By introducing and implementing Lean principles, your company can improve efficiencies, reduce waste, increase profitability and provide customers with high quality products at competitive prices. The end results are well worth your investment.
Participants in our workshops have reported significant results after implementing Lean principles in their own businesses, including:
90% reduction in lead times; 85% reduction in work-in-process; 85% improvement in quality; 50% increase in productivity; 50% reduction in floor space.
What to expect: During the hands-on simulation, which you will be a member of our production team - you will apply Lean concepts, such as standardized work, visual signals, batch-size reduction, pull systems, and more designed to give you new tools to improve your business. We begin by manufacturing products in a chaotic, traditional manufacturing firm. Then Lean principles are applied to the results of your first simulation. For the remainder of the day, we revisit the manufacturing environment and use the Lean techniques that have been presented.
You will learn the principles of Lean Manufacturing and how to apply them to your company. At the end of this workshop, you will be able to identify the eight areas of waste in most manufacturing and understand how to eliminate them and move ahead. Applying Lean principles can improve your bottom line.
