I've been thinking about how to streamline our workshop processes. Have you ever considered applying lean principles to reduce waste?
That sounds sensible. First, map the flow of work from start to finish and note every step that adds no value. Then cut or automate those steps, and keep only the ones that move the product toward completion. Use simple metrics—cycle time, throughput, and defect rate—to see where the waste is. Small, consistent changes add up more than a big overhaul. Keep it simple and stick to the numbers.
Sounds solid. I'll map the workflow this week and set up a spreadsheet to track those metrics. We'll see where the bottlenecks are and tackle them one by one.
Good plan. Keep the spreadsheet simple, focus on the data, and don’t let the charts distract from the work at hand. Once you spot a bottleneck, cut the waste and move on. That’s how you stay ahead.
Got it. I'll keep the sheet minimal, focus on raw numbers, and act quickly on any bottleneck I find. No frills, just results.
