LEAN MANUFACTURING AND BEYOND

OVERVIEW

LEARNING OUTCOMES

PARTICIPANTS PROFILE

Companies around the world are attempting to improve their products and services while at the same time reducing waste and corresponding costs in the process, through various means such as Concurrent Engineering, Business Process Re-Engineering (BPR), Six-Sigma, Lean Manufacturing (LM), etc. Among these initiatives, the philosophy of Lean Manufacturing has attracted the attention of many industries. Successful implementation of a Lean Manufacturing improves an organization’s market and financial performance. However, many aspects of Lean M are counterintuitive to traditional thinking and operations. Hence, it becomes important that organizations adopting a lean approach understand its scope, different tools, techniques, practices, procedures, guidelines (in short, ‘elements’), and its potential capability.

This programme is designed to help you and naturally your organization gain an understanding of the scope of a lean effort. It provides valuable insight into lean elements, such as Value stream maping (VSM), Kanban, Pull systems etc. and recommends tips for an implementation roadmap. Lean efforts are not just limited to manufacturing; a lean mindset applies to any process. It can be used to reduce waste and add value to processes in the office, in maintenance, in R&D and even in supply chain. In particular, the impact of a lean approach in the entire supply chain can be even more dramatic than in manufacturing processes!

At the end of this programme, the participants will be able to:nUnderstand the fundamental concepts behind Lean ThinkingnUtilise and implement various lean tools such as VSM, Kanban, Pull Systems, etc

not only in manufacturing, but also in other business processesnAppreciate the utility and capability of Lean thinking

The program is designed for middle-level managers, who will be taking active part in the Lean Transormation efforts of an organization. Even, the Graduate Engineer Trainees (GETs), Management Trainees (MT), the Entrepreneurs and CEOs of small and medium scale organizations, who are novice and having little knowledge about Lean Manufacturing can benefit from this programme.
