DESCRIPTION
What are Mura, Muri and Muda? How are they related? What are the 7 wastes? This module answers these questions and more. Learn an easy to remember name for the seven wastes and take a deep dive into each of them. For each waste, the numerous causes and consequences are covered for both ?production? and ?office? environments. Counter measures are suggested.
In addition, the 7 waste evaluation template is covered. This template consists of a series of 5 questions for each waste. These questions are used to guide teams to identify waste. A scoring methodology is used so that the biggest wastes are made evident.
This material is suitable for independent study or formal classroom training and includes an exercise, list of tools and quiz questions.
