Abstract

**What does Lean mean for your company?**   Lean represents a philosophy focused on continuous improvement and waste elimination across all processes. For our company, it means optimizing resources, enhancing efficiency, and improving quality at every stage of production, with the goal of better meeting customer needs and becoming more competitive in the market. **Where are the main challenges in the Gemba House for your company?**   In our company, the main challenges in the Gemba House are identifying and eliminating bottlenecks, improving information management, and enhancing coordination between departments. Another key challenge is ensuring that all employees understand and apply Lean principles in their daily work, which requires continuous training and awareness. **Give some examples of how your company works with Lean today.**   Today, our company applies Lean by using tools like Value Stream Mapping to identify inefficiencies, 5S to maintain an organized work environment, and regular continuous improvement meetings with production teams. We've also improved production planning to reduce wait times and ensure we only produce what is truly needed. **Next step: Where should the company focus to achieve the maximum value working with Lean?**   The next step for our company should be to focus on improving workflow, reducing lead times, and optimizing resource management. Additionally, it would be crucial to deepen the Lean culture at an organizational level, involving all employees in identifying areas for improvement and maintaining open communication with customers to ensure the final product meets expectations with minimal waste.

Learning outcomes

**Understand the definitions before starting!**   A high OEE figure is not necessarily a good thing!   OEE values should not be viewed in isolation.   You can calculate OEE figures for individual machines/equipment, not for the entire company.   Product quality evaluation is not included.
