The Improvea Lean Exercise 
This exercise aims to illustrate Lean Thinking concepts in a way that involves delegates, not only in learning through participation, but as an integral part of the Lean Process.
The programme, developed from the "Buckingham Lean Exercise" by John Bicheno, has been extensively used and tested in industrial training settings.
Several points distinguish this exercise from others:-
- Participant decision-making in removal of non value-added activities.
- Multiple products with uncertain demands in a "real" manufacturing environment.
- An introduction to most Lean Tools enabling immediate transfer to the workplace.
- Waste Reduction using the "7 Wastes"
- Focus on the People side of Lean Implementation.
Our aim is that participants will be stimulated into making changes to their own process.
WHO SHOULD TAKE PART?
The exercise is aimed at anyone who is, or will be, involved in Continuous Improvement or Lean activities within the workplace.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The programme consists of between 3-5 basic exercises of approximately 20 minutes each. The exercises are participative and interactive, with opportunities for discussion at all stages.
After and during each exercise, various measures are made. Participants must then decide on any changes which should be made, and which would be most beneficial.
