If you are in search of a better way to run your business, you have come to the right place. Here you will find Bill Gaw's lean manufacturing definition that provides the foundation for change initiative implementation success... lean manufacturing definition that increase speed, improve quality, and reduce non-value-added activities/costs... lean manufacturing definition that create a "make-it-happen" environment... lean manufacturing definition that return sanity to day-to-day operations while increasing contribution to a company's "bottom line." 

Do any of these problems plague your organization?

  • Too many challenges on your plate

  • Problematic ERP/MRP systems integrity

  • Production and quality problem finger-pointing 

  • Poor inventory utilization performance

  • Shop floor fire-fighting and an end-of-month crunch

  • Supplier rejects and untimely shipments

  • Evasive lean manufacturing solutions

  • Production scrap and rework

  • Customer returns and warrantee charges

  • Scheduling confusion cause by MRP reschedules.

If you answered YES to any of the above questions, stay connected and you'll discover how Bill Gaw's Lean Manufacturing BASICS can help you and your company reach your full growth and earning potentials.

It's the BASICS, friend! 

I realize the word "BASICS " is not very sexy. But it is a very important thing to understand. 

Many years ago Vince Lombardi led the Green Bay Packers football team to unprecedented success by having an almost obsessive focus on doing the BASICS very well. 

It’s amazing how many individuals and companies have great visions yet fail to achieve their full growth and earning potentials. They're a lot like the Green Bay Packers' football team before the arrival of Vince Lombardi... all the potential in the world but with no focus on executing the basics of their business and profession. 

The fact is, business basics... the things that serve as a solid foundation for growing and enduring success have not changed since before I was born... and won't change after you're dust.

It's tempting to think that they do... that the introduction of change initiatives like Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Customer Relations Management, (CRM) and Six Sigma can change the basics.

I understand the temptation. I can only caution against it.

Mastering the proven basics of what has worked in the past will establish the foundation needed to successfully implement and optimize the change initiatives of today and tomorrow. Best of all, work will become fun again

If you've ever said, "There must be a better way." 
... there is, and it's not more computerization!

Do you want to optimize personal and company success? If so... you need to identify and master the basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing™. "Many historic, recurring day-to-day problems (perhaps the same problems that plague your operation) can be permanently eliminated by a tenacious execution of Bill Gaw's basics and best practices. 

And Bill's e-tutorial makes it easy for you and your company to study and master the  8-Basics of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing... 8-BASICS for optimizing MRP, ERP, and 5S lean manufacturing success... 8-BASICS for increasing speed, improving quality and reducing non-value-added costs... 8-BASICS for bullet-proofing lean manufacturing solutions that permanently eliminate factory chaos and the end-of-the-month crunch... 8-BASICS for creating a fun working environment.

Lean Manufacturing Training Program

Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing™ (KBLM) does not eliminate the MRP system but rather optimizes the MRP shop floor and purchasing scheduling sub-system. It's a lot like the Toyota lean manufacturing methodology.

Below is a graphic that shows the impact of optimizing MRP shop floor and purchasing scheduling sub-systems with Bill Gaw's KBLM methodology:


Do any of these describe your situation?

  • You're worried about your company's future... your future

  • You're frustrated by too many challenges on your plate

  • You're troubled by seemingly unrealistic expectations

  • You want to create a fun work environment

  • You're concerned about job related stress.

If so, it's time for you to pursue a training program that will:

  • Improve speed, quality, and on-time deliveries

  • Eliminate non-value-added activities and costs

  • Convert finger pointers into problem solvers 

  • Transform work environments from drudgery to fun

  • Minimize day-to-day manufacturing stress levels
