Lean Supply Chain

Lean Supply Chain

A Lean supply chain can bring many benefits to an organisation through improved process performance. Businesses that streamline their processes, by eliminating waste and non-value added value-added activities, will receive not only a return on investment but will also add value for their customers, by reducing the cost of goods and lowering their wastage.

This programme enables delegates to understand ‘lean’ and the ways that the adoption of lean thinking can streamline processes, facilitate structured working practice and deliver value.
