| Value Stream Flow Kaizen Workshops |
5 Day On-Site Workshop
|
|
|
 |
Administrative Process Flow Kaizen Objectives:
• familiarize participants with lean business process principles & methodologies
• assist participants in seeing the flow of their focus business process value stream
• create a comprehensive multi-dimensional current state value stream map of the participant’s focus business process value stream’s flow
• assist participants in understanding how lean principles & practices can significantly improve administrative flow within the focus business process value stream
• assist participants in visualizing, then developing an aggressive, yet feasible future state process improvement design and an aggressive lean transformation framework
• assist participants in developing an effective lean leadership framework and sustaining performance metrics for their focus business process value stream
|
To achieve these objectives, participants will:
• practice, through discussions and case study illustrations, value stream flow mapping and business process kaizen concepts, team building, and improvement sustainment
• develop a current and an innovative lean future state map of the focus business process
• discuss lean leadership & lean performance metrics to sustain kaizen improvement
|
|
|
 |
A pre-assessment of the focus business process is normally required to allow tailoring of the kaizen workshop to the client's specific needs and processes. |
