Here’s the question heard round the world: How do we continuously in-crease speed, improve quality while lowering our operating costs? My answer is to stop chasing computer sophistication and focus on the basics of your business and your profession.
One of my favorite sayings is: “It's the Basics, Friend!”
In March of this year, the Aberdeen Group, a technology driven research destination of choice for the global business executive, published their “Lean Benchmark Report.” Of close to 300 manufacturers that participate in this study, 90% reported that they are committed to Lean. However, further analysis found that less than 20% of these companies can be considered best-in-class. The report went on to say: "Companies that have achieved operational excellence through the deployment of a Lean strategy share this key characteristic:
Dedication to basics such as streamlining processes, creating a well ordered work environment, and ongoing continuous improvement programs (Kaizen)."
An important Aberdeen Group conclusion: "Best-in-class companies tackle Lean by mastering the basics."
So the secret is out: 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.
Identifying and mastering the 8-BASICS of lean
manufacturing 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.
Are
You In Search of a Better Way?
Do
you want to gain control of your day-to-day activities?
Do you want to create a fun
work environment?
Do you want to exceed expectations and earn recognition and rewards?
Does your company
want to improve customer satisfaction?
Does
your company need to increase speed and improve quality?
Does your
company need to reduce non-value-added activities/costs?
If you answered YES to any of the above questions, stay connected and you'll discover how a focus on Bill Gaw's 8-Basics of Lean Manufacturing can change your professional life for the better.
Believe this... for you and your company to reach your full growth and earning
potentials you need to accomplish two things:
1. You need to identify, implement and master
the "8-BASICS of Kaizen Based Lean Manufacturing™."
2. You need to develop a process for
obtaining “top-to-bottom,” company commitment to the flawless execution of these BASICS. This commitment
becomes a launching pad for achievements beyond all expectations.
If you’re pursuing a computer hardware and/or software solution to your
problems; you may have the “cart before the horse!” If you’re not
focused on identifying and mastering the BASICS of
Kaizen Based Lean Manu-facturing, no level of system sophistication will get you to
where you want to go.
