Lean manufacturing was initially designed to reduce waste and maximize resource usage. Later, lean was developed in response to the competitive and ever-changing business environment. Businesses nowadays must contend with problems and complexity due to the fast-changing business environment. Whether focused on manufacturing or providing services, any company may ultimately rely on its ability to respond to these changes systematically and consistently to raise the output's value and ensure its survival.
Implementing Appleton Greene’s lean manufacturing system is thus a critical skill for any company to maintain, as value-adding activities are necessary to achieve this perfection. Few services focus on more than one lean factor, while the majority are solely concerned with one lean element.
However, Appleton Greene’s lean manufacturing program concentrates on all of the elements, including Value Stream Mapping (VSM), Cellular Manufacturing (CM), U-line system, Line Balancing, Inventory control, Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED), Pull System, Kanban, Production Levelling, etc.
This enabled us to implement a more holistic lean manufacturing system. This enabled us to create a coherent theory for the implementation of lean elements. The support we received from Appleton Greene far exceeded our expectations.
A very well thought-out program, well designed and implemented to the highest standards. We did not have to engage participants, the program does this naturally. An absolute must for any manufacturing company.
