Introduction
Many organisations recognise the importance of becoming lean. But, they are doing lean without necessarily become lean. Such organisations sporadically implement improvements without linking their efforts to an overarching strategy. Value Stream Mapping enable an organisation to understand visualises current state and through the application of lean tools, realise their futuristic state with the goal of attaining a true lean enterprise.
Objectives
Participants will learn the principles and concepts of lean (Both in manufacturing and service applications), and through a given case, map out existing processes using the methodology of Value Stream Mapping and through lean improvements, propose and implement the future processes flow in the manufacturing floor, as well as in the service sectors.
Duration
2 days | 9am – 5pm | 14 hours
