ONE-PIECE FLOW

Simply put, 1-piece flow is a process of "make one, use one." One-piece flow is the state that exists when products move through a manufacturing process one unit at a time, at a rate determined by the needs of the customer.

Achieving One-Piece Continuous Flow is a workshop with implementation that is designed to enable you to recognize and work to eliminate the 8 Kinds of Waste in discrete portions of your Value Stream. When you achieve zero waste, you achieve continuous flow. This is the centerpiece of a Lean System, and must be the cornerstone of your Lean Strategy.

Benefits for your organization:

This program is generally conducted as a three to five day workshop with leaders / members of your Value Stream, Materials Handlers and Maintenance personnel.
