workshop background
A highly revered ex-Toyota consultant recently stated that most manufacturer seem focused on achieving a 35 to 40 percent productivity gain over three to five years as a measure of success in their current lean efforts. He went on to say that manufacturers should be actually focusing on 400% improvement in productivity over 10 years to achieve the path to becoming lean. Why is there such a large disparity in measuring success.
One way of looking at this 360 percent gap is to recognize that most lean initiatives only focus on applying lean principles on the shop floor where the opportunity to increase productivity might indeed be limited to 35 to 40 percent over several years. We have observed that much of the untapped potential for improvement in an enterprise's productivity lies off the shop floor in non-production areas where the enterprise has yet to understand or embrace lean thinking and principles.
