Robert Gotsch, wish to share his experiences in applying LEAN TOOLS concepts in manufacturing, distribution, and retail operations:
As a practitioner of Lean Tools Process training, my implementation steps to lead a Lean Initiative include: obtain senior management support of the project, identify metrics to be tracked and measured, establish benchmark of metrics at Lean Project startup, obtain benchmark buy in from senior management and financial group to verify Lean Process savings, benchmark neighboring processes to identify effect the Lean Process has on them.
