Workshop - Principles of Lean Office & Administration

Reduced cost, improved quality, improved customer service, faster delivery—Learn how to get all four.

A Lean Enterprise produces more with less or equal resources. Lean practices drive improvements by eliminating waste and addressing process flow throughout the entire enterprise. The resulting streamlined organization becomes a foundation for continued long-term success. You should consider learning more about Lean Enterprise if your firm encounters issues such as:

Lead times in excess of customer requirements
Excessive “paperwork”-in-process
Bottlenecks and delays in paperwork processing

Course Description

One-Day Workshop at our workshop venue, or if you request, at your location for groups of 10 to15 people.

At this workshop you will learn Lean principles and how to apply them in an office environment. During the simulation exercises—as a member of the Buzz Electronics administration team—you'll apply Lean concepts, as they apply to the office, such as standardized work, visual controls, batch-size reduction, pull systems, cell design and more. You'll experience first hand how Lean improves quality, reduces cycle time, improves delivery, reduces Work-In-Process, and increases profits.
