Order Description
Use other resources to make sure you understand the concept of Lean Production and the following approaches to Lean Production:
Cellular manufacturing
Just in Time
Kaizen (continuous improvement) and Total Quality Management (TQM)
Choose a workplace situation or structure that wastes time, money or other resources. Provide a brief background on it. Analyze the situation. How is it wasteful? What is causing the waste to occur?
Consider the approaches to Lean Production and identify which one of the three approaches is most applicable to the wasteful workplace situation you chose.
Write your Case Study, making sure it explains each of the following:
the wasteful situation you have chosen, how it is wasteful, and what causes it to be wasteful
the three different approaches to Lean Production. Explain them in your own words and use simple language (no jargon) to describe why using Lean Production would be a sensible strategy.
the Lean Production approach that is most applicable to your situation and why
how you would apply Lean tactics to address the situation. How would doing so solve or reduce the waste problem?
