Lean Game Business Simulation

If you want to test how Lean may be applied, this simulation will be an excellent choice to make. In it, participants work with four parallel workflows; quotation-order-billing-purchasing. Participants will use several Lean tools during three rounds in a step-by-step learning process. All rounds include Value Stream Mapping. Among other things, the simulation focuses on how participants' improvement efforts have an impact on lead time, process time, "complete and accurate" and volume handled. The day concludes with a discussion and sharing of experiences.
Lean Business Simulation is also an important part of the course "Lean Leadership". In that case, a stronger focus will be placed on improvement meetings (see appropriate curriculum)
