Lean Manufacturing Overview (PowerPoint PPTX)

We Can Define LEAN :
The methodology of increasing the speed of production by eliminating process steps which do not add value
• those which delay the product or service
• those which deal with the waste and rework of defects along the way

Lean production focuses on eliminating waste in processes (i.e. the waste of work in progress and finished good inventories)
Lean production is not about eliminating people
Lean production is about expanding capacity by reducing costs and shortening cycle times between order and ship date
Lean is about understanding what is important to the customer

Lean provides tangible benefits :
• Reduces costs not just selling price
• Reduces delivery time, cycle time, set-up time
• Eliminates waste
• Seeks continuous improvement
• Improves quality
• Improves customer ratings and perceptions
• Increases overall customer satisfaction
• Improves employee involvement, morale, and company culture
• Helps "transform" manufacturers
