VALUE AND
WASTE
Everything we do follows some sort of process. When looking at the value created in that process Lean Thinking is focussed on understanding Value from the customers' perspective.
Often very little (sometimes only 10 per cent) of any process usually adds value - the rest in Lean terms is considered waste. So if you want to improve the way you do business it makes logical sense to focus on the non-value adding elements of a process because there is such a huge opportunity for improvement.
Why would you want to miss any opportunity to improve the value you provide for your customers?
