Lean Manufacturing Training and Assessment
Lean manufacturing is a systematic method for the elimination of waste within a manufacturing system. Working from the perspective of the client who consumes a product or service, the “value” is any action or process that a customer would be willing to pay for. Essentially, lean is centered on making obvious what adds value by reducing everything else. Lean manufacturing is a management philosophy derived mostly from the Toyota Production System (TPS).
