Lean Defined and On-Line Training Classes
LEAN made popular by Toyota focus primarily on the reduction of Muda (waste) to improve value to the customer. The seven wastes include transportation, inventory, motion, waiting, over-processing, over-production, and defect. LEAN is founded on the belief that waste can be eliminated and asks the question does the process step provide value from the customer perspective.
A great way to learn more about LEAN are Mindedge LEAN Basics, LEAN Six Sigma Basics, and Lean Six Sigma Green Belt Courses.
