As the manufacturing and operations lead, I have identified significant inefficiencies in our production line, including excessive waste, long lead times, and inconsistent product quality. To address these issues, I will implement lean concepts such as value stream mapping, 5S, and continuous improvement processes. By analyzing our workflow, organizing the workspace, and fostering a culture of Kaizen, we will streamline operations, reduce waste, and enhance product quality. This paper outlines the problem and details the practical steps for effectively applying these lean strategies.
