    Where Lean Skills Take Your Career

    Roles and Demand in Puerto Rico

    Lean skills are in strong demand across Puerto Rico, where pharmaceutical, medical device and food manufacturers run some of the most advanced plants in the Americas. The island is the top US life sciences exporter, and employers from Amgen to Medtronic hire production supervisors, manufacturing engineers and continuous improvement specialists who can eliminate waste and lift OEE. As global firms reinvest here, professionals who complete Lean Manufacturing training and bring a proven Lean toolkit stand out. Here is what the market looks like right now.

    Why Puerto Rico Manufacturers Need Lean Now

    Lean Manufacturing is more than a set of tools. It is how Puerto Rico's best plants compete. Build the skills to lead waste elimination and continuous improvement on your line. Start today.

    Your Puerto Rico Lean Transformation

    From Firefighting to Flow

    Your Shop-Floor Transformation

    Puerto Rico's manufacturers are investing to compete globally, and they increasingly separate people who can run a Lean improvement from those who cannot. Here is the shift this training helps you make.

    Module 2: Identifying and Eliminating Waste (MUDA, MURA, MURI)

    • Identifying the eight types of waste: Defects, Overproduction, Waiting, Non-Utilised Talent, Transportation, Inventory, Motion, and Extra Processing
    • Conducting waste walk exercises to assess current-state operations and prioritise improvement opportunities across production processes
    • Understanding the difference between MUDA (waste), MURA (unevenness), and MURI (overburden), and applying structured elimination strategies for each

    Module 3: Value Stream Mapping (VSM)

    • Creating current-state value stream maps to visualise the flow of materials and information across the production process
    • Analysing current-state maps to identify bottlenecks, excess inventory, non-value-added steps, and process cycle efficiency metrics
    • Designing future-state value stream maps and building improvement roadmaps to close the gap between current and desired production performance

    Module 4: 5S Workplace Organisation

    • Implementing the five steps of 5S: Sort (Seiri), Set in Order (Seiton), Shine (Seiso), Standardise (Seiketsu), and Sustain (Shitsuke)
    • Conducting 5S workplace assessments, scoring production areas, and identifying corrective actions to improve organisation and visual management
    • Building 5S sustaining mechanisms including audit schedules, visual controls, and standard work documentation to maintain workplace improvements

    Module 5: Just-in-Time (JIT) Production and Kanban

    • Understanding Just-in-Time production principles including Takt Time analysis, one-piece flow, and pull-based scheduling to reduce inventory and lead times
    • Designing and implementing Kanban pull systems to manage material flow, signal replenishment, and eliminate overproduction between production stages
    • Calculating Takt Time, cycle time, and process lead time to balance workload and design efficient production flows aligned with customer demand

    Module 6: Kaizen and Continuous Improvement Events

    • Understanding Kaizen philosophy, the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) improvement cycle, and the principles of rapid improvement event facilitation
    • Planning, facilitating, and following up on structured Kaizen events including team selection, problem scoping, root cause analysis, and countermeasure implementation
    • Building a Kaizen culture through daily improvement habits, idea management systems, and leadership behaviours that sustain continuous improvement momentum

    Module 7: Error-Proofing with Poka-Yoke and Jidoka

    • Understanding error-proofing principles and the difference between detection and prevention approaches to quality control in manufacturing processes
    • Designing and implementing Poka-Yoke (mistake-proofing) devices and mechanisms to eliminate defects at the source before they reach the next production stage
    • Applying Jidoka (autonomation) principles to enable machines and operators to detect abnormalities, stop production, and signal for corrective action automatically

    Module 8: Total Productive Maintenance (TPM) and OEE

    • Understanding Total Productive Maintenance principles including the eight pillars of TPM and how TPM supports Lean production by eliminating equipment-related waste
    • Calculating Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) using Availability, Performance, and Quality components to measure and improve production asset performance
    • Implementing Autonomous Maintenance practices to involve operators in basic equipment care, inspection, and early defect detection to reduce unplanned downtime

    Module 9: Sustaining Lean and Building a Lean Culture

    • Developing Lean management systems including visual management, daily team meetings, tiered accountability processes, and leader standard work to sustain improvements
    • Measuring and tracking Lean progress using key performance indicators including lead time, first-pass yield, OEE, inventory turns, and on-time delivery
    • Building a long-term Lean transformation roadmap, engaging cross-functional teams, and developing internal Lean practitioner capability to drive ongoing operational excellence

    Course Curriculum

    The Lean Tools You Will Put to Work

    From the Eight Wastes to Kaizen

    This Lean Manufacturing training gives you hands-on command of the core tools that eliminate waste and improve flow. By the end of the day you can apply each one to a real production problem, from a waste walk to a value stream map to an OEE calculation.

    Five Lean Principles and the TPS

    Understand the Toyota Production System and apply the five Lean principles: identify value, map the value stream, create flow, establish pull and seek perfection across your operation.

    Spotting the Eight Wastes

    Recognise and classify the eight wastes (DOWNTIME) on a real line through a Gemba waste walk, and quantify their cost so you can prioritise what to fix first.

    Value Stream Mapping

    Draw current and future-state value stream maps, capture cycle and changeover times, calculate takt time, find the bottleneck and plan Kaizen events that cut total lead time.

    5S and Visual Management

    Run a 5S programme (Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardise, Sustain) and set up visual management, Andon and production boards so normal and abnormal conditions are visible at a glance.

    Pull, Kanban, JIT and TPM

    Design kanban pull systems and supermarkets, apply Just-in-Time thinking, and use Total Productive Maintenance and OEE to raise equipment reliability toward world-class benchmarks.

    Standard Work, SMED and Kaizen

    Write standard work, cut changeover time with SMED, level production with Heijunka, mistake-proof with Poka Yoke, and lead Kaizen continuous improvement on the shop floor.
