The Kaizen Blitz
What is it?

Kaizen is the Japanese version of continuous improvement. It focuses on steady, gradual continuous improvements. Kaizen Blitz is an American version of kaizen. The methodology employs a set of proven, "quick-hitting," continuous improve-ment tools and techniques that optimize MRP, ERP and lean manufacturing performance and helps companies exceed bottom line expectations. A typical "Kaizen Blitz" project is completed in 1 to 5-days.

The Kaizen Blitz...  to Help You and Your Company:

  • Exceed expectations

  • Multiply manufacturing gains

  • Increase product profit margins

  • Bullet-proof problem solutions

  • Reduce day-to-day stress levels

  • Gain mutual recognition and rewards.

Introducing "Papa Kaizen"

   Kaizen Guru
        Enrique Mora    

While mentoring a group of young and aggressive team members, during the implementation of a very successful client's kaizen blitz project,  Enrique, referred to them as "The Kaizen Kids." In a kindly response, the client's production manager came up with "Papa Kaizen" as an appropriate alias for their "make-a-difference" kaizen guru.

When it comes to the kaizen blitz, most consultants will tell you what you need to do − the difference between them and Papa Kaizen is ... he not only tells you what you need to do, he shows you how to do it.

Enrique's expertise is the transferring of "Quick Hitting Kaizen" tools and techniques to manufacturing professionals who want to exceed performance expectations and gain recognition and rewards.

His 5-day, Kaizen Event is an action-learning program for manufacturers that are serious about identifying and achieving their full growth and profit potentials. His kaizen blitz methodology has proven to help manufacturing companies:

  • achieve linear production

  • improve quality

  • decrease cycle times

  • improve on-time deliveries

  • improve customer satisfaction

  • increase productivity

Companies that master the principles and techniques of his kaizen blitz methods consistently grow and exceed all bottom line expectations.

The Kaizen Event
Facilitated by Enrique Mora

Compared to many other educational institutes, Business Basics avoids a general, philosophical approach. Rather we aim to be intensely practical, providing proven, actionable, how-to information for individuals and businesses that search for lean manufacturing solutions and want to achieve their full growth and earning potentials

5-Days of On-site, Action-Learning: Featuring:

  • Participative Exercises – that clearly demonstrate the "Gemba" (shop floor) control advantages of kaizen driven lean manufacturing.

  • Kaizen Blitz "On-the-Job" Training – a "gemba" tour, project selection, problem solving, goal setting and results assessment... all aimed at the transfer of the skills required to plan and execute a kaizen blitz.

  • The Kaizen Blitz – putting the knowledge learned in work in the real world.

  • Cost Effective Guarantee – your Kaizen Event is priced at a reasonable fixed fee with a guaranteed positive ROI. If in the first year you don't recover double your Kaizen Event fee from the work done during the kaizen blitz... you'll receive a full refund! Many of Enrique's clients have recovered that much in the first month of activity..

What Does All This Cost?

Much less than you would imagine. In fact, we make the Kaizen Event affordable so that it can fit easily within your company's training budget. We want you and your company to learn how to get lean and/or leaner and the best way to do that is to make it affordable. 


A typical budget would be for 40 onsite hours, with price held to a fixed fee of $8,500.00 (plus minimum traveling expense). 

 

Our Guarantee Says It All

We are so sure that your Kaizen Event will satisfy your expectations, its performed entirely at our risk. 

If you're not pleased with the quality of your
Kaizen Event, there will be no fee.  

Believe this, we will never consider your purchase binding until you have monitored and evaluated the results of the kaizen blitz.. We are certain that you will be thrilled with the results. In fact, we are so convinced that the Kaizen Event will work for you that if you aren't completely satisfied for any reason at any time during the kaizen blitz, simply halt the event and you'll owe us nothing. You simply can't lose.

How do we get started?

Congratulations, if you have read this far, you are an excellent candidate for a Kaizen Event. A pre-event meeting is necessary to assure that there is mutual understanding and agreement about:

  • The structure and objective of your 5-day event

  • The level of involvement and commitment required

  • Team members' roles, expectations and selection

  • Performance recognition and acknowledgement.

Our preference is to meet with the CEO and Operations executives at the factory site where the proposed Kaizen Event would take place. A morning "get acquainted" meeting and plant tour is usually sufficient to cover the above subjects and establish mutual understanding of the Kaizen Event's objectives and expectations. If agreement is reached and the event is approved, a time schedule is established.

If the factory site is in Southern California, there is no charge for this meeting. If it is outside Southern California, we ask that the potential client to budget for travel expenses.

  • Become a lean manufacturing champion

  • Transform your work environment from drudgery to fun.

  • Minimize your day-to-day stress level

What's in it for my company?
