Where’s the Waste?
The most profitable businesses thrive because they have taken time to streamline their operations by maximising production-line processes and employee efficiency. In this case study, we consider how, using Lean techniques, in-depth observation and analysis of employee activities can indicate where current processes are insufficiently well planned, overly time-consuming and therefore inefficient – ultimately reducing bottom-line profitability.
By further using Lean processes, personnel working procedures can be altered and enhanced in order to improve efficiency, increase productivity, and make a significant contribution to healthy profit margins.
