SUMMARY:Improve Process Efficiencies:  Lean Manufacturing Overview with Simulation - Oak Brook
DESCRIPTION:&nbsp\;REGISTERMeeting today&rsquo\;s manufacturing challenges demands a lean enterprise &mdash\; streamlining product design and manufacturing by applying&nbsp\; lean manufacturing principles\, concepts and techniques. The primary focus of this effort is the continuous elimination of waste in the company&rsquo\;s business processes. Implementing Lean practices involves changing a work area or a business process to maximize efficiency\, improve quality and safety\, eliminate unnecessary motion and inventory\, and save time and resources.WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM THE LEAN OVERVIEW WITH SIMULATION?This interactive workshop combines comprehensive classroom instruction with simulation of a production facility. The basic concepts of Lean manufacturing and the tools and methodology necessary to implement &ldquo\;lean&rdquo\; on the shop floor are demonstrated. Participants assume the role of production workers\, applying lean tools to their individual workspaces and the entire product line. This learn-do technique\, over three &ldquo\;shifts&rdquo\;\, illustrates cause and effect relationships for each of the lean tools presented.
