KANBAN PULL
Creating Valuable Human Capital to drive Lean through Kanban Pull training
Kanban Pull is the fundamental mechanism used in Pull Production where parts and WIP are produced only when required downstream in the manufacturing process. Each kanban system is designed to meet the needs of that particular process. The step by step approach to design the kanban system is explained through lectures and exercises in this class.
Kanban Pull may used in the shop-floor as well as in the office. This video explains how a kanban board is used for office based processes to create a steady flow and cadence. Before being pulled the work tasks are prioritized. One of the ways of doing this is the triaging method. Video

The Kata of Karate
The word 'karate' comes from the word 'kata'. Kata can be thought of as a practiced routine set of actions that one has internalised, which become a habit, almost an unconscious way of doing things. Toyota kata is hence an internalised routine method of learning from trials, making adjustments that are necessary, and implementing the next improvement in moving from the current condition towards a target condition. It is the real Plan Do Check Act (PDCA) actions that allow us to continuously improve.
Lean IT: What is it?
It is actually, quite a large subject. I will endeavour to describe what Lean IT is all about in several articles over the next few months. I will begin by referring to the many tools & techniques of Lean. In Lean (whether Lean IT or Lean used in other functions/industries) there are many tools and techniques. Broadly these tools & technqiues can be categorized into 5 main groups, for Problem Solving, Improving Process Flow, Direction Management, Daily Management and Building Continuous Improvement Culture
