ERP to Lean

It concerns the desire to eliminate waste across an entire enterprise.

An overview of the most important aspects of lean

  Planned procurement to minimise unwanted stock purchases
 Just in time delivery as close to the point-of-use and time-of-use as possible
  Shorter end-to-end throughput times by elimination of waiting time
 Optimised process scheduling to minimise buffer stock
  Faster tool changes and more flexible lines for better matched batch sizes
  Configure-to-order or late configuration to minimise finished goods holding
  Improved sales forecasting in make-to-stock 
  Elimination of business processes which add no value for the customer
      Automated reporting and triggering to monitor the business in real-time
