A Targeted Lean Event is a rapid improvement workshop designed to take an intact process team through a rapid (i.e. blitz) process improvement, or kaizen event. The main segments of a Targeted Lean Event are:
Pre-Event Preparations
4 to 5-day process improvement workshop
Follow-through actions to ensure success and sustainability
During the pre-event preparations, the facilitator determines which Lean concepts and tools are appropriate for the subject process and each phase of the 5-day event. During the event, break-outs from the main session are done as needed to collect data, interview key staff and observe the process as the project progresses. Typically, there are two meetings during the event for team members to present the results of the project and receive a "go" or "no go" response from the sponsor. The targeted event concludes with the improve phase and implementation of as much of the solution as is tested and ready.
In some organizations, standardization through certification is an important element in Lean deployment.
Internal experts, or Lean Coaches, can be certified by completing the Lean Coaches curriculum, passing an exam, and successfully completing a project requirement.
Lean is a specialized discipline. While the basics are relatively easy to pick up and use, people will benefit by having access to experts. Lean coaches are internal experts who can help with training, facilitation, and coordination. Coaches can help ensure Lean projects are aligned to corporate goals and that the Lean approaches are used in a standard manner. This group of internal experts can be small, but is a key element in helping to sustain focus and priorities.
The Lean Coaches curriculum builds the internal expertise necessary to conduct Lean workshops and successfully coach staff.
Deploying Lean successfully is a strategic decision led by the executives of the organization. The executive team not only sets the direction for the overall Lean deployment, but puts the structure in place to foster cultural change.
Successful Lean deployments engage staff at different levels in different ways. Many staff members need a working knowledge of Lean and just enough detail to begin implementation in limited ways under the guidance of a Lean expert.
The Lean Overview equips individuals with a hands-on experience of implementing Lean and enough information to begin applying select Lean approaches in everyday work.
Teams implementing Lean need more than just the technical skills to succeed. Team and facilitation skills will be a critical component of any Lean deployment.

Understanding Lean Enterprise Tools (LNIQ) Click for Details
The goal of a Lean enterprise is to develop the highest quality product/service at the lowest possible cost. Understand what you need to create a lean enterprise in your organization. Based on standardized management deployment systems and starting with the lean model, work through kaizen (elimination of waste through continuous improvement), standardized work, autonomation (jidohka), just-in-time methodologies, heijunka (production leveling and control), and Poka Yoke (error proofing). Eliminate waste in your processes by implementing lean in your organization. This set of approaches, methods, and tools is based on the world's most efficient manufacturing technology, the Toyota Production System. It can help any organization improve including service, government, and nonprofit organizations.
