| Abstract | This Lean and Environment Toolkit (Version 1.0) offers practical strategies and techniques to Lean implementers about how to improve Lean results-waste elimination, quality enhancement, and delivery of value to customers-while achieving environmental performance goals. The toolkit also provides tools to help your organization get better environmental performance from Lean efforts on the shop floor. Lean production and Lean manufacturing refer to a customer-focused business model and collection of methods that focuses on the elimination of waste (non-value added activity) while delivering quality products on time and at a low cost. The toolkit assumes that you are familiar with Lean methods and their implementation. |
