Lean principles focus on reductions in waste due to overproduction and waiting- a common practice for continuous improvement in manufacturing. Not just for the shop floor, concepts can be applied to any office or administrative process, such as Customer Service, Quoting, Purchasing, Shipping and Receiving, Accounting, Engineering, and Human Resources.
Intro to Lean Accounting
Lean accounting, simply defined, is the application of lean thinking to all accounting systems and processes, both financial accounting and management accounting. What is unique about lean accounting, compared to other applications of lean thinking, is how it is applied to the dual roles of accounting.
Lean Basic Training with Simulation
Participants begin by ‘manufacturing’ air compressor components in a simulated traditional manufacturing process. You will learn about Standardized Work, Workplace Organization, Visual and Plant Layout, One-Piece Flow, TPM, Cellular Production, TAKT Time, Pull and Kanbans, POUS, Quick Changeover, Quality at the Source, Batch Reduction. Each concept will build upon your ability to eliminate manufacturing waste.
