• define the objectives of the Lean project,
• select/validate the scope of the project (linked to a VSM or not),

• define the project organisation.

The training programme focuses on:

• Introduction to the main concepts of Lean Manufacturing.
• Immediate and practical application in the field.
• Observation and measurement of existing practices.
• Analysis of processes and personnel and product flows.
• Redesign and reorganisation.
• Immediate implementation by trainees.
