lean manufacturing definition
Lean Manufacturing – A management philosophy focusing on reduction of the seven wastes (over-production, waiting time, transportation, processing, inventory, motion and scrap) in manufactured products. By eliminating waste, quality is improved, and production time and cost are reduced. Lean “tools” include constant process analysis, “pull” production, and mistake-proofing.
