Standardized Work

Description:

Implementing Standardized Work at your company does not mean creating mountains of physical documents that will collect dust -- the point is to share information about the best ways to do things so they will be done that way consistently. Learn the various types of standards appropriate to the workplace, how to make them visual for workers and managers, and the important relationship between standardization and quality.
