Lean Management Benefits

Successful Lean organisations rely on a combination of tools and techniques, top down and bottom up, to ensure that their Lean activities are successful and most importantly the lean management benefits are sustained and continually improved.

The key step that organisations fail to make is the move from the initial project based approach to a more systematic all-encompassing Lean system which touches all parts of the business. The system needs to involve all parts of the business and cannot be limited to the factory or the office or front line staff alone.

The tools and system must be designed to fit the organisation’s needs: starting with the Purpose, then the Process and then the People.
