The Lean Manufacturing house can
only grow if its foundations are built first.
Without using a highly flexible and modular system
that allows muda to be eliminated and Kaizen attitudes
to be introduced into the plant, it is impossible
to proceed to the later steps of Lean Manufacturing,
which are work standardization, sequencing (Heijunka)
JIT and JIDOKA.
The systematic use of LeanTek acts as a catalyst
for the policy of waste reduction and as a tool
for implementing the Kaizen attitudes of continuous
improvement.
