Analysis and reduction of production losses
Improving operational efficiency
Considering automation and team engagement

Benefits from training

Participants will gain practical skills in loss reduction and process optimization, which will lead to a decrease in operational costs.

The training enables the assessment of when and to what extent to invest in automation, supporting the making of sound strategic decisions for the future of the plant.

With Lean tools such as 5S and SMED, participants will improve workstation organization, which will enhance production flow and quality.

Training description

Lean Manufacturing – optimize processes, reduce costs, achieve excellence in production!

Are you wondering how to improve efficiency in your manufacturing facility? Unsure where to start the improvement process? Or perhaps you’re questioning whether investing in automation for production processes is worthwhile and when to implement it? Our training program "Lean Manufacturing – Fundamentals" will help you find answers to these questions and implement effective solutions in your company.

The "Lean Manufacturing – Fundamentals" training is a comprehensive introduction to the methodology that has been optimizing production processes in leading industrial plants for years. Learn how to efficiently manage production, eliminate waste, and optimize processes. You will understand how to use Lean tools to improve performance and quality, as well as how to introduce automation in response to rising labor costs.

During the training, participants will have the opportunity to work on a production simulation, taking on various roles (logistics, production, quality), implementing improvements, and analyzing real factors such as costs, production time, and machine failures. This practical approach will help build a more efficient manufacturing plant and teach how to engage the team in the process of continuous improvement.

The training is offered in two versions:

  • For a single company on its premises, with the possibility of individual workshops on the production floor, or
  • In the form of general workshops outside the company for representatives from various enterprises.
