WHAT IS LEAN CAPABILITIES?
Lean Capabilities International is a Franchise System that has
been developed and created to allow Passionate and Focused
People the opportunity to get into their own business, through
conducting Training Workshops and follow-up coaching to assist
organizations to adopt the implementation of Lean Thinking and
Lean Systems.
Lean Thinking is about making continuous improvements to
enhance business performance.
A number of Continuous Improvement philosophies and
techniques have evolved. These include,
Total Productive Maintenance (TPM), Lean,
Theory of Constraints (TOC), and 6-Sigma.

 WHERE DID LEAN DERIVE FROM ?

 By the early 60's Toyota had developed a system to

design, manufacture and market a product that
changed the World.

 It allowed them to make vehicles

of a higher quality, in a shorter
time frame, at lower cost with
more variety; these tools can be
used to improve almost any
business.

 WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE TO
SAY …
The following is feedback from Grant Forsdick - CEO
Strata Control Systems.

“I have attended the 3 day Lean 4x4 Continuous Improvement Course - after
personally being involved in implementing “lean practices” for almost 15 years.
It proved the most practical and comprehensive approach I have yet
encountered that caters for all levels within an organization proceeding on the
journey of “lean thinking”. The course presents a practical, common sense
approach backed by the practical experience and passion of the presenters. It
genuinely achieves results that can easily be translated into improved business
practices.”

Peter Robertson, Vice President, Operations Planning -

BlueScope Steel:

"Without doubt the best continuous improvement course I have attended thus
far. The material presented and the activities conducted were practical, relevant
and comprehensive. Importantly, the various continuous improvement
approaches explained and demonstrated were integrated in a way that made
tremendous sense. This was a very rich learning experience reinforced by the
presenters living out the 'lean way' in their running of the 3 days. 10/10."
