Intro-To-Lean
It is very hard to deal with raw material suppliers if we fully depend on customer order.
It takes too much discipline. It takes too long to implement. My process is too complex; I have to deal with too many uncontrollable variables, like late supplier shipments, sick people, etc.
The only real difference between lean and green manufacturing is that green actually designs the product or process with the environment as a constraint while lean creates a process with the view of the environment as a valuable resource and not a constraint.
