The 8-Basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing!

I realize the word "BASICS " is not very sexy. But it is a very important thing to understand. 


Many years ago Vince Lombardi led the Green Bay Packers football team to unprecedented success by having an almost obsessive focus on doing the BASICS very well. 

It’s amazing how many individuals and companies have great visions yet fail to achieve their full growth and earning potentials. They're a lot like the Green Bay Packer's football team before the arrival of Vince Lombardi... all the potential in the world but with no focus on executing the basics of their business and profession. 

The fact is, the basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing... the things that serve as a solid foundation for growing and enduring success have not changed since before I was born... and won't change after you're dust.

It's tempting to think that they do... that the introduction of a new change initiatives like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relations Management, (CRM) and Six Sigma can change the basics.

I understand the temptation.

I can only caution against it, and invite you --- urge you --- to be a serious student of history in both the evolution and revolution in lean manufacturing.

Mastering the proven basics of what has worked in the past will give you the foundation needed to predict what will work today... and tomorrow!  

Mastering of Bill's Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing basics can help you and your company reach their full growth and earnings potentials. Best of all, work will become fun again. 

If you've ever said, "There must be a better way." 
... there is, and it's not more computerization!

Do you want to optimize personal and company success? If so... you need to identify and master the basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing™. "Many historic, recurring day-to-day problems (perhaps the same problems that plague your operation) can be permanently eliminated by a tenacious execution of Bill Gaw's basics and best practices. 

And Bill's e-tutorial makes it easy for you and your company to study and master the  8-Basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing... 8-BASICS for optimizing MRP, ERP, and lean manufacturing success... 8-BASICS for increasing speed, improving quality and reducing non-value-added costs... 8-BASICS for bullet-proofing lean manufacturing solutions that permanently eliminate factory chaos and the end-of-the-month crunch... 8-BASICS for creating a fun working environment.

Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing™ (KBLM) does not eliminate the MRP system but rather optimizes the MRP shop floor and purchasing scheduling sub-system.

Below is a graphic that shows the impact of optimizing MRP shop floor and purchasing scheduling sub-systems with Bill Gaw's KBLM methodology:
