Lean Management:
The way
of minimizing waste in the workplace premises without compromising production
is termed to be Lean Manufacturing.
The waste could be of any form.
- Muri – Elimination of unnecessary work imposed on a labour or a machine than it could actually handle in a given time.
- Mura – Elimination of fluctuation at the scheduling or operations level and implementation of work design.
- Muda – Elimination of variation in output of production.
- Elimination of these wastes in the course of service process makes way for compelling necessary productivity at a faster pace.
Lean approach could either be to increase the profit or to
improve the operations, focusing on the customer. It could vary with every
organization focusing on the immediate areas of improvisation. Skillwise
Academy imparts training suited to your needs.
The four common goals of lean implementation in an
organization would be,
·
Quality
Improvisation – Understand your customers’ needs and requirements and focus
on areas of necessary improvements in quality.
·
Waste
Elimination – Any activity or resource that does not add value to the
product/service in any form should instantly be excluded.
·
Time
Reduction – Reduction in manufacturing or service time could help greatly
in cutting of costs and delivery of products/services on time.
·
Cost
Reduction – Overproduction should be eliminated, manufacturing only to the
customer demands. More is the inventory, more would be the storage costs.
Lean Manufacturing gave birth to
the concept of Just-In-Time (JIT). JIT aims at reduction of inventory to almost
nil, as to produce with supplies only when the demand arises. This has proven
to reduce costs of inventory and storage on significant scales with a huge sum
of savings in hand at the end of every financial year.
But imparting JIT in an
organization requires a fully operational lean to meet the required volume of
demand, operating with almost zero wastage, for which Skillwise Academy is
awaiting at the verge of your call.
