    The Lean Tools You Will Put to Work

    Value Stream Mapping, Kanban, 5S and More

    In this Lean Project Management Training you will learn to streamline delivery, remove waste and drive continuous improvement using the core Lean toolkit. By the end of the two-day programme you can apply these tools to real projects in your own workplace.

    Map Value Streams End to End

    You will learn to build current and future state value stream maps that expose bottlenecks and non-value-added steps, then redesign the flow so work moves faster with less waste.

    Identify and Eliminate the 8 Wastes

    Spot waiting, overproduction, defects, motion and other forms of waste hiding in your project processes, and apply Lean techniques to remove them and lift efficiency.

    Run Visual Workflows with Kanban

    Use Kanban boards to manage work in real time, limit work in progress and keep project delivery flowing smoothly across the team.

    Apply 5S and Poka-Yoke

    Organise workspaces and processes with 5S and design simple error-proofing with Poka-Yoke, so quality is built in and mistakes are prevented rather than fixed later.

    Drive Continuous Improvement with PDCA

    Use the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle to test changes, measure results and embed a culture of continuous improvement across your projects.

    Solve Problems with A3 and DMAIC

    Structure root-cause problem solving using A3 thinking and DMAIC, and implement countermeasures that prevent issues from recurring.

    Plan and Schedule the Lean Way

    Develop Lean project plans and schedules that optimise resources, manage delivery risk and keep every activity aligned to customer value.

    Lead Lean Teams and Culture

    Build engaged, collaborative teams, define value from the customer's view and foster the leadership habits that sustain Lean ways of working.
