Lean organization
Lean organization is based on the effective identification of losses, and solving rapid increases in orders and capacity problems. Lean 7 + 1 losses is a method where we systematically determine which processes bring us added value and which losses. Losses are any action that requires time, material and auxiliary materials. However, it does not create added value.
A lean organization is an upgrade of lean production and lean logistics, as it also includes other administrative services , which are also essential for the successful operation of the company.
