Standard Work
LEAN Core
Standard work is the practice of setting, communicating, following, and improving standards. It is an integral aspect of continuous improvement, as it creates the baseline for improvement efforts to start from. Establishing standard work begins with process operators creating, clarifying, and sharing information about the most efficient method to perform a task that is currently known with everyone performing that process. From there, you can perform waste analysis and highlight areas of opportunity. Learn how standard work fits into LEAN, and how you cPrinan apply different LEAN tools to develop standard work in your organization as a baseline for improvement.
