destruction or overuse of natural resources and
to reduce pollution and degradation of nature

ways for saving water, energy, and reducing
negative environmental impacts

Lean This addresses one of the worst
things that can happen to any
manufacturing enterprise: waste. To not take full
advantage of all of your resources is to
lose efficiencies and, in so doing, stunt production. These
neglected resources include everything from manufacturing
project management tools, to the skills of the staff members.

The industry is, of course, rife with waste. Whether it’s idle workers or
unused materials that cannot be recycled or repurposed, the results are
the same: a drag on productivity. This insistence on eliminating waste is
where the idea of lean as a management system developed
Lean is a methodology to reduce waste in a
manufacturing system without sacrificing
productivity. The customer defines what is
of value in terms of what they would pay for the
product or service. Through lean management,
what adds value becomes clear by removing or
reducing everything that doesn’t add value.

Lean manufacturing
Waste is not a simple
concept. If
approached simply,
then the reduction is
going to be limited.

In order for lean


project management
to be most effective,
waste is defined in
Types of Waste
three specific ways.
in Lean
Manufacturing
Mura:
Unevenness, or waste due to
fluctuations in demand. This can come
from customer requests, but it can also
be due to an organization adding new
services and thus additional work.
Muri:
Overburden, or waste due to trying to
do too much at once. This has to do with
resource allocation. When too few
people try to do too much work, they
often waste time switching from on
task to another
Muda:
Non-value-adding work, or process waste. This
waste comes as a byproduct of something else.
Think about three things: value, work that adds
immediate value for a customer; necessary
waste, which are supporting activities that add
value; and unnecessary waste, activities that
don’t add value. Therefore, lean maximizes value,
minimizes necessary waste, and removes
unnecessary waste altogether.
Reducing or eliminating
waste is essential to lean
project management, but
the ends that it serves
can be different
depending on who is
asked.

Some say it is increasing


company profit while
others maintain its Goals and
Strategy of Lean
improvements are solely
to benefit the customer.

Manufacturing
Some of the thecommon goals

Improve Quality: To stay competitive, companies can’t be complacent, but must


meet customers’ changing wants and needs. Therefore, processes must be
designed to meet their expectations and requirements. Adopting total quality
management can make quality improvement a priority.

Eliminate Waste: Waste is bad for costs, deadlines and resources. It takes
without adding any value to a product or service.
Some of the thecommon goals

Reduce Time: Time is money, as the adage goes, and wasting time is therefore
wasting money. Reducing the time it takes to start and finish a project is going to
create value by adding efficiencies. Learn and apply some time management
strategies.

Reduce Total Costs: Money is saved when a company is not wasting time,
materials, and personnel on unnecessary activities. Overproduction also adds to
storage and warehousing costs. Understanding the triple constraint is the first
step to understanding cost management.
Sustainability
Strategy.
Sustainability or corporate responsibility strategy is a
prioritized set of actions. It provides an agreed framework to
focus investment and drive performance, as well as engage
internal and external stakeholders.

Developing a sustainability strategy is an ideal opportunity to


engage external stakeholders and colleagues across the
business. Indeed, involving senior management is essential to
success. The most effective way to do this is to involve senior
colleagues on the issues that matter to the business, using
language that resonates with commercial priorities.
Sustainability Strategy.

When done effectively, the process of developing a


strategy - as well as the resulting framework - can help to:

Sustainability Reports
Sustainability reports are voluntary reports by
businesses or organizations which where they present
their plans on how to interact with the wide range of
sustainability issue, creating one is still important as it
falls under the Corporations Social Responsibility.
Sustainability reports by each organization takes on
many forms. This is possible because sustainability
report is a voluntary practice, so organizations can do
sustainability reports in which form they deemed fit to
their organization.
Understanding the Forms
of Sustainability Reports
The difference of form can be the results of the standards
used in creating sustainability reports.
It can also be the result of the type of industry the
organization belongs to. Different industries may face
different sustainability issues.
It also could be different due to what goal the
organization has in mind, they could align their
sustainability reports to the organizations' vision and
mission.
