A 3 Hour Simulation Designed for 7 Participants A Hands-On Introduction to Lean Office

The simulation is designed to introduce the participants to lean concepts, allow them to experience changes to a process, and motivate them to desire improvements in their office processes. Office processes are composed of individual tasks. Processes are generally developed over years of time and normally contain steps that are no longer required. A lean office is an environment where each of these processes has been evaluated and streamlined for maximum efficiency. Another goal of lean office is to eliminate wasted movement by locating the personnel necessary to perform the task together. There are four rounds in the simulation. Each round demonstrates particular principles and allows the participants to experience the improvements: Traditional Office Process Cellular Layout and Elimination of Non-Value Added Steps One-Piece Flow with a Pull System and Work Balancing Cross Training and Flexible Workforce A hands-on approach is used as participants become employees of a fictional company Widget Works. The quotation process must be improved to handle the changing demands of the business. Quotations are processed by the participants and changes are introduced in each round. The quotation process is used because most office personnel have some knowledge of this process.

The simulation takes just three hours to complete! Each round provides the participants with unique learning experiences. Ideal in the boardroom, training center, or the classroom. Everything you need in one, easy-to-transport package.
