STUDY
MISSION

BACKGROUND
Japan is a country like no other in the world. Lean principles permeate every aspect of daily life in
Japan. People who travel to Japan are fascinated and surprised by the fact that even places like gas
stations or shopping centers utilize Lean principles in creative ways. Japanese Industry is recognized all over the world as being the world leader in continuous improvement (kaizen). Japan has
earned a reputation around the world as a “Lean Specialist” building its economic power in manufacturing over the past decades.
We can probably find companies with good Lean practices in Europe or USA, but Lean practitioners will find that Japan is the only place that showcases Lean implementation in its purest
form. You will be able to see the current status of continuous improvement in its place of birth:
Toyota Production System (TPS), Total Productive Maintenance (TPM)…
This program offers a unique opportunity for you to experience first-hand deployment and innovative improvement techniques which will help your organizations to achieve the object of waste
elimination, zero defects, zero accidents… to sum up, zero failure.
ATTENDANTS
This is a programme designed for Senior Executives / Managers responsible for their company continuous improvement or TPM.
This program offers unprecedented access to senior management and the shop floor of recognized world leading
companies.
