Lean Enterprise is a new mechanism for looking at the whole, a channel for the value stream.
The objectives of the lean enterprise are very simple:
- Correctly specify value for the customer.
- Identify all the actions required to bring a product from concept to launch, from order to delivery, or from raw material into the hands of the customer and on through its useful life.
- Remove any actions which do not create value and make those actions which do create value proceed in continuous flow as pulled by the customer.
- Analyze the results and start the evaluation process over again.
The mechanism of the lean enterprise is also very simple: a conference of all the firms along the stream, assisted by technical staff from "lean functions" in the participating firms, to periodically conduct rapid analyses and then to take fast-strike improvement actions. Clearly someone must be the leader, and this is logically the firm bringing all of the designs and components together into a complete product. However, the participants must treat each other as equals, with muda as the joint enemy. [1]
