Description

Why Lean Lab ?Lean Lab is a concept or methodology aimed at reducing waste and maximizing efficiency in a process or system, usually in a business or manufacturing setting. It is based on the principles of Lean Manufacturing and Lean Start-up, which emphasize continuous improvement, elimination of waste, and customer focus. The goal of Lean Lab is to help organizations identify and eliminate inefficiencies, streamline processes, and ultimately improve customer satisfaction and increase profitability.How it is useful for Individual and Organization ?For individual it enhances skill and knowledge towards Smart Analyst or manager of Labs. For organization , The benefits of Lean Lab will be Delivering more consistent and predicable laboratory performanceSignificantly Increased productivityReduced lead-timesReduced CostsReduced levels of WIPImproved RFT (Right First Time)A detailed understanding of lab capacity and resourcing requirementsGreater empowerment of laboratory personnelImproved customer service levelsWhat all topics covered in this Module ?How to assess, design, execute and sustain to achieve higher performances of people, processes and assets (Includes understanding of Lean Waste, Standard work, Value stream mapping, Spaghetti diagram, Time motion study, Layout designs, Levelling and Loading and Metrics and Dashboard and all key initiatives (5S) for achieve the same)A Lean Laboratory checklist is divided into nine improvement areas:1. Housekeeping2. Value stream mapping3. Workload4. Laboratory workflow5. Performance management6. Equipment7. Skills of laboratory personnel8. Laboratory chemicals / auxiliary material9. CIP (continuous improvement processes)
