| Description |
Business and other organizations use lean principles, practices, and tools to create precise customer value-goods and services with higher quality and fewer defects-with less human effort, less space, less capital, and less time than the traditional approaches.
One of the primary focuses of lean manufacturing is to eliminate waste; that is, anything that does not add value to the final product gets eliminated. A second major focus is to empower people at lowest level, and make operational decisions at the lowest level possible.
Lean Management is about looking at the whole picture of all the processes that are required to deliver a product or service. It is about evaluating each step and ensuring that the step is Valuable, Capable, Available, Flexible and Adequate.
Lean applies to non manufacturing settings just as strongly as it applies to manufacturing. Many of the most exciting breakthroughs are taking place in services as diverse as software development, banking, health, bpo and government.
The two-day Lean Management Certification is for people who are hands on practitioners in processes. Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt is not a pre-requisite.
