Building a Lean Fulfillment Stream
Derek Browning

Fee: $595

The lean journey generally begins inside the four walls of the manufacturing facility, however eventually it extends to the supply base and our customers. As we begin focusing on waste elimination, inventory reduction and flow, we quickly realize that engagement by the “extended enterprise” is required to complete the lean journey.

Modeled after the LEI workbook Building a Lean Fulfillment Stream, this workshop teaches how to apply lean to the supply chain and logistics function.

The workshop highlights the critical elements and “must know” concepts of lean as they apply to the supply chain and logistics, and provides opportunities to discuss what organizations need to do to successfully build a Lean Fulfillment Stream. Beginning with understanding the current condition of your logistics and supply chain networks, this workshop will show how to map your value stream for the extended enterprise, isolate areas of waste, and uncover opportunities for cost reduction through the use of lean principles. “Total Cost of Ownership” is a common theme through this workshop, as we discuss and dissect the importance of supplier and customer collaboration, cross-functional cooperation and logistics and supply stream measurement.

Upon completion of this session, participants will learn…

  • Understand the critical elements of building the Lean Fulfillment Stream

  • Map the extended enterprise value stream

  • Calculate “total cost of ownership” for material purchases

  • Uncover areas of waste to reduce lead time and inventory levels

  • Create an optimized logistics network based on flow , pull and collaboration
