Lean is one of the most discussed and mentioned production
philosophies in these days. And with great reason. Lean projects
have shown great results and there are potential for optimizing
in all companies.
What is companies to expect by
implementing Lean?
What is the focus of a Lean
project?
The Lean philosophy origins from the Japanese car industry and
is based on the main princip:
"...add value eliminate
muda".
The results of lean are:
Lean: Global and local
Even though the main principles of lean projects around the
world are the same, there are still many cultural, structural and
positional differences between the companies in Japan and e.g.
Scandinavia. The implementation and completion of Lean projects
are handled in different ways in order to get succes and achieve
the wanted results.
Building a culture
In addition to the actual tools of the philosophy we believe
that Lean in Scandinavian companies must be considered as
development of competencies. It is important to consider a Lean
project as a project of optimization, but also as a project of
change. That is why the management of the project is crucial in
order to achieve the wanted results.
Lean is also about building a culture in the
company focusing on continuous improvement to ensure greater
conditions for innovation.
The standard project
For Conscius Consulting it has great priority to ensure
the ongoing work of lean even after our consultants are done
with the project. We always focus on finding solutions that
engage the company all the way through the project.
In order to ensure that the entire company works for the same
goal, we offer different seminars for the management, project
managers and employees of the company.
We have implemented many Lean projects with great succes in
Denmark, where we are located. Please
