Course Overview
Lean is now considered the most effective business improvement strategy in the world, for both manufacture and service industries. Lean’s good practices to improve rapid response and eliminate waste are essential tools for re-industrialisation and in particular during the journey heading to Industry 4.0.
The innovative approach is to add, on top of improving efficiency, to enhance effectiveness of the organisations by exploiting hidden capacities. The new lean approach integrates the concept of Theory of Constraints (TOC) and focuses on creating value while reducing costs. TOC focuses on system constraints for throughput improvement.
