Lean Development for product improvement

It happens all the time: Production is already starting even though development has not been concluded. In other cases interfaces block the view of the overall value stream, so that design often makes selective improvements only, while disregarding potential problems or costs in production, sales or purchasing. Prolems that cost a lot of money and lead to tremendous disadvantages in the market.
 

What is really important instead: short projects lead times, excellent adherence to schedules and optimum quality, i.e. products that are suited best to market requirements while staying within budget. This requires an integrated product development system that performs. Otherwise we will once again be fixing today's mistakes when tomorrow comes. Integrated product development starts with the idea, facilitates the successful and timely launch of production and accompanies the product all the way to service.

Be among the first

to date, the topic of Lean Development is often disregarded when companies embark on the Lean journey. However: Even though the term "Lean production" is commonly used, it is important to get to the root of problems and waste which found at the beginning of the value stream - in the production developments activities.

We frequently hear that „creativity cannot be constrained by standards." Right. It doesn't have to be. Yet it is important and  a good idea to implement standardisation in the work environment of development departments. So that the team has the room it needs for creativity.

This is precisely why V&S offers Lean Development training that applies the Lean principles to a company's development activities: avoiding waste and developing the right things at the right time.
