The Guiding Principles of Lean

Lean Lab Video

BSM's Operations Practice Director, TOM REYNOLDS, presents a series of high value video shorts providing excellent insights into key aspects of Lean in the Lab.

Here Tom talks about the Guiding Principles of Lean:

Specify Value
Identify the Value Stream
Make Value Flow
Create Pull
Eliminate Waste

People often concentrate on number 5 – Eliminate Waste and forget to do 1-4. Tom stresses that you need to get your underlying process moving first and perfect it and then eliminate waste, and not the other way round.
