Lean Coaching

We have spent the last six years building LMR’s brand as a unique service provider in Lean Manufacturing. We pride ourselves on delivering results that are sustainable. Our success is down to the individuals in our growing team of 40 people and the care we take with the implementation on our clients’ sites. A measure of our success is that most of our clients have been with us from the beginningand continue to use our services to enhance their operations.

LMR has a four phase approach to Lean which is customised to meet the individual needs of the client.

We focus on sustainability and ownership which ensures that your Lean implementation becomes part of the company culture.

Lean Awareness - Assess Current State Change without communication or awareness training is destined to fail. At the start of any project LMR will develop a communication and general awareness training for staff affected by the programme.

Understanding the Current State using Value Stream Mapping, and Lean Assessment tools provides a baseline to measure future improvements. From the current condition, LMR and your core team can project what the Future State will look like in both performance and cultural terms.

Blue Sky & Master Schedule With an understanding of the current state LMR can help to build a vision of how your company will look in Lean terms. Using a structured workshop approach with key stakeholders, a clear way forward for the organisation is established. This vision - or Blue Sky - will complement your business strategy and help achieve your key goals and objectives.

The Master Scheduling process converts the Blue Sky vision into a reality. LMR will coach your team in transforming the Blue Sky into workable plans in each department, capable of being reviewed in Information Centres in less than fifteen minutes. Our visual approach to project implementation enables all staff members to contribute towards achieving the goal.

LMR prides itself in having the practical expertise to make your implementation happen where it matters: on the shop floor. Our coaches are skilled in all aspects of Lean and will interact with people at all levels to assure the changes become a part of your organisation’s DNA.

implementation are sustained.
