Lean is a Philosophy for business success as well as a large collection of proven tools.Lean is Customer First, what is value in the eyes of the customer? What features and services does the customer want? When do they want them and what price do they want to pay? Without this information how can you design your ideal system? This value needs to be made to flow from raw materials through to the consumer, this value stream needs to produce product at the pull of the customer. This is Just In Time manufacturing (JIT), producing what the customer wants when they want it! Once you have the customer defined value flowing at the pull of the customer you strive for perfection, improving everything that you can about the product and process.
