What is supply chain management and how does lean apply to the supply chain? The lean journey generally begins inside the four walls of the manufacturing facility, however eventually the journey extends to the supply base and our customers. As the organization focuses on waste elimination, inventory reduction and flow, we quickly realize that engagement by the ?extended enterprise? is required to complete the lean journey.

This workshop teaches how to apply lean to your supply chain. This workshop will fully define supply chain management and discuss what organizations need to do to successfully implement lean in the supply chain. Beginning with understanding the current condition of your supply chain, this workshop will show how to use value-stream mapping to map your extended supply chain, 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 supply chain collaboration, cross functional cooperation and supply chain measurement.
