Lean Supply Chain

A recent business study that analyzed the link between supply chain and financial performance revealed that virtually all winning business strategies have, at their core, supply chain strategies that provide a competitive advantage

Building a Lean Supply Chain means seeking to deliver products quickly and correctly to the end customer, with minimum waste.   With a disciplined application of Lean in the supply chain, you can achieve the benefits of:

  • Shorter Lead Times (Quicker Customer Response)
  • Reduced Transportation Costs
  • Reduced Storage Costs
  • Reduced Inventory

A Lean Supply Chain always begins with the end in mind. It begins and ends with the customer. The basic foundations of JIT (Just –In-Time) principles apply. One must understand that customer expectations have (3) three key criteria; right product and service, right cost, and right time. Here, the supply chain is defined and improved under the direction and magnetic pull of the customer. In a Lean Supply Chain, the value chain links become smaller and more efficient.
