Project Summary
|
Lean Enterprise Process Improvement (LEPI) is a multiple workshop, 40 to 60 hour series, used to reengineer multiple, linked, value stream/flow processes, and support organizations for lean operations.
A cross-functional LEPI team(s) defines the major value stream flow processes from customer, through design, tool build, pre-production, production, and final product delivery. LEPI can get you organized to meet requirements for higher office productivity, APQP, and faster time-to-market.
LEPI teams collaborate in 10 to 12 one-half day workshops to:
- Define Steps in Enterprise Process Flow
- Define what needs to happen at each step, inputs, resources, outputs,
- Next, the team develops needed training materials, new job descriptions, and start-up testing protocols.
- Test a design or production job, make needed improvements, and prepare to start the new process(es).
- Update ISO procedures and job descriptions. Start up and improve the new system.
