Read Marcus Overview

Many organizations have jumped onto the Lean bandwagon to eliminate waste with the aim of creating customer value, improving quality, reducing costs and shortening lead time.

To eliminate waste, we must first find or discover them. However, for many people who have become so used to their manufacturing or workplace environment, finding waste or identifying what activities constitute waste may be a difficult exercise.

This presentation teaches you how to discover waste. Waste are all around us, and they include all those extraneous and counterproductive assumptions, attitudes, activities, materials, machines, operations and processes.

This presentation can be used to educate your management and staff on the four models that can be used to systematically discover waste on the shopfloor. To be able to discover waste is the first step towards its elimination. This training material can also be used to supplement your Lean Manufacturing, Gemba Walk, Kaizen, 5S and TPM training materials.
