Lean Product Development:
Reducing Time in New Product Development
REGISTER FOR THIS WORKSHOP - CLOSE WINDOW

Training: This two day course is designed to show participants that despite an increasing need for speed and efficiency, much of the effort expended by product development teams is often unnecessary and potentially wasteful. In many cases, only one or two hours of a team member's work day are actually spent directly creating value for their customers. The Lean Product Development workshop presents a set of leading-edge, practical tools for slashing waste and increasing speed and efficiency for any product development process. The twenty-eight "lean techniques" described in this course enable dramatic reductions in time-to-market while freeing up valuable resources for additional development work. Firms that have embraced these practical waste-eliminating tools have reported up to 50 percent reduction in launch schedules, dramatic improvements in gross margin, and enhanced customer satisfaction. This hands-on workshop covers all aspects of the subject, including a step-by-step approach for creating your own lean process that will enable rapid, high-value product development.
