Lean Manufacturing
Course Description
The primary students for the online distance learning course are engineers, managers, supervisors, and individuals responsible for implementing Lean Manufacturing in the organization.
The course is an in depth study of the Lean manufacturing discipline. Those just wanting a good basic understanding of the subject should take the Lean manufacturing for Operators course. It is still more detailed than many Lean courses available today, which are often more overview and marketing than detailed conceptual analysis.
Our course teaches the details of each module listed below. The online course is fairly long, however, it is necessary to learn how each of the disciplines work together to develop a lean system. For example, SMED cannot be perfected without 5S and TPM. Kaizen and Visual Management are utilized throughout the implementation of lean manufacturing.
Many online distance learning and on site Lean courses provide a basic overview. Most require the completion of several courses to obtain the full knowledge, such as separating Value Stream, 5S, SMED, and TPM. These methods are often effective but expensive and time consuming.
BPR developed one longer course to provide the student with complete knowledge to implement lean manufacturing in the organization beginning day one after completion.
Our “overview” is free. Please feel free to learn more on each module below.
