Lean Principles, Value, Waste - Eagles Wings: lean manufacturing, lean service, lean management, Singapore

Lean Principles are embraced by all organizations who have a desire to drive relentlessly towards becoming leaner. These principles are timeless and are the cornerstones of lean management. Lean is also known as Toyota Production System or TPS

We provide services and education related with lean management to help organizations deploy and embrace lean thinking and to assist them in transforming their organizations to become faster and more agile; to improve the quality of their products and services; to eliminate waste and reduce costs as a result; and to increase the involvement of their employees in improvement efforts resulting in higher morale.

These principles developed by Professor James Womack and Professor Daniel Jones include:

Specify Value – define value from the standpoint of the final customer
Identify the Value Stream - The entire set of activities needed to design and produce a product/service must be thoroughly understood and mapped out
Flow - processes are made to flow (without interruption)
Pull - Organizations must be structured so the customer can pull value from the producer
Perfection - The whole enterprise must pursue not its competitors, but rather perfection
