Lean Manufacturing consists of numerous tools and concepts. Many organizations spend much of their resources (people, time, investments…etc) acquiring understanding and knowledge on these Lean Tools. Nevertheless, the acquired knowledge is frequently not translated into actual ‘real life’ practices. One of the important practices of Lean is the Kaizen Event and Workplace Kaizen (Small Group Activities). These kaizen projects are short burst of focused activity and effort, which gives more emphasis on action over analysis to achieve actual shop floor results over a set timeframe.
Kaizen Event and SGA will address many of the day-to-day problems with permanent solutions instead of quick-fix band-aids. A properly planned and executed kaizen project will yield high impact tangible results, moving a "firefighting" organization towards stability and ‘continuous improvement’.
