Cost Reduction by Lean Manufacturing
Lean manufacturing principles can reduce manufacturing costs by increasing labor productivity, cutting production throughput times, reducing inventories, and cutting errors and scrap by as much as half.
It characterizes all activities as either value-added or non-value-added with the focus on eliminating non-value-added activities (wastes).
Course Objective
After going through Cost reduction by Lean Manufacturing training participants will understand and learn about:
- How to reduce cost using lean manufacturing.
- Creating conditions for improving product quality.
- Building in quality at each stage of production.
- Motivating all workers towards continuous improvement.
- How to establish streamline and smooth operation flow.
Who Should Attend
- Human Resources
- Safety Coordinators
- Safety Specialists
- Safety Managers
- Loss Control Managers
- Operations Managers
- Project Managers
Benefits Of Attending
Lean manufacturing is all about optimizing processes and eliminating waste. This is a Japanese concept and in this concept we have to find waste in our process and cut it out and the process will become lean.
Cost reduction by Lean Manufacturing training workshop will offer following benefits:
- Improve Quality and Visual Management.
- Increase efficiency and easy to manage any process.
- Manpower and space Optimization.
- Continuous improvement.
- Problem Elimination and on-time delivery .
- Safer Work Environment.
- Improved employee morale.
- Empowerment of employees.
