Easy Lean is different from any other lean methodology in that it addresses both make-to-order AND make-to-stock (or hybrid) manufacturing environments, and does not require you to reorganize your entire shop floor to make it work.

Our customers faced the following issues before implementing Easy Lean:

• Long production lead times in spite of available capacity
• Once released to WIP, parts are idle 90% of time on floor
• Cost and Price pressures driving margins down
• Poor on-time delivery to customers
• Not working on the "right things at the right time"
• Not having material when you need it - kits were robbed for Hot orders

Too much of the wrong inventory - tying up your capital?

There are four simple changes that you need to make in your operations to achieve these results:

• Reduce WIP by eliminating the premature release of material.
• Create and manage buffers on the floor to manage "Murphy's Law"
• Dynamically align Lot Sizes with true demand (Pull system)
• Prioritize work using an easy to understand method

With decades of experience on our staff, our experts in lean concepts and business process re-engineering can help you with a quick installation or a major project involving re-engineering of your business processes.
