Improving Process Flow
Processes that flow smoothly bring significant benefits for organisations & their customers: customers get exactly what they want when they want it, & producers can provide an improved service more efficiently & at lower cost. Lean thinking has its roots in Toyota’s ‘Just In Time’ approach, & is recognised by many organisations as the key to improving process flow. These principles can be applied throughout an organisation, in both manufacturing & office areas, & also in the supply chain.
This course focuses on improving process flow within an organisation, providing a clear insight into lean processing principles & techniques, & showing how carefully designed ‘cells’ can be used to reap the benefits. A key element of the course is to apply the learning to a simulated process, which clearly demonstrates the type & scale of improvements which can be made, & how these can be replicated within delegates’ own processes.
