Lean is speed in workflow, provided all the quality issues have been brought under control. Achieving Lean gives companies the quantum leap to improve profitability in today's fast business transaction from order to delivery. How fast this can be, is dependent on the flow of core processes along the value stream. The design of the Value Stream is the core issue surrounding the important concept of achieving SPEED. Each and every company has a different manufacturing strategy to meet its business goals and objectives. This strategy must correspondingly be reflected in the design of the value stream, the ownership and the deployment of resources along the value stream activities and employees' empowerment.

Lean Maintenance Operations
Price :S$ 1,900.00
Dr Mark Goldstein Best-In-Class In Lean Maintenance Operations
Remarks:Maintenance is a very tough business! Businesses live or die, based on the comprehensiveness of both the discipline that it adapts to, and the actions taken in response to “Exception Notification.” The message: Incur sizable financial losses, because you didn’t establish active, energetic “Floor Management Objectives;” and keep an accurate set of books that front-end maintenance operation financial decision-support, the actions needed for managing your maintenance operation, and you lose your business, and your job. It’s just that simple. Real-world cost control occurs, when Enterprise Management Objectives are supported by comprehensive decision-support guidelines. This results in managerial reporting that alerts you to genuine savings. Act on them in a disciplined fashion, and the results are exciting. Too much of today’s Enterprise Asset Management/Computerized Maintenance Management System design runs opposite to that guidance, depending upon passive Equipment History Files to perform Lean Maintenance cost reduction.. The core driver of Enterprise Resource Planning is active, energetic “Floor Management Objectives;” the core driver of Lean Plant Maintenance cost-reduction has to be directed towards the same operations discipline!
