Topic: ìLean 101- Itís Not Just For The Factoryî

Greetings to my fellow chapter members, guests and friends.

October marks the first PDP of our two-part series on Lean. This eveningís presentation will focus on recognizing the opportunities to utilize LEAN concepts in your office, understanding the use of Value Stream Mapping, recognizing waste in your environment, 5S, sustaining changes and continual improvement.

Lean is one of the three hottest topics in our professional arena these days. This is a great opportunity as an introduction for those who are new to Lean concepts, of as a refresher for those with Lean experience. Please feel free to invite your colleagues who would benefit from learning about Lean philosophies in the workplace.

Please plan now to attend, and place your reservations with Tom Kilty at QMSKilty@ij.net by end-of-business Friday October 6th.

Best regards.
Craig Williams, CPIM
