Presentation slides from the joint The Lean Aerospace Initiative and LEAN joint meeting (October 16-18, 2006) are available. From Jim Womack’s slide:
What Is Lean?
Lean = Purpose + Process + People
Purpose = solving customer problem while provider prospers.
Process = 3 primary value streams and many support processes, some involving customers.
People = engaging everyone touching every value stream to operate and improve it steadily (
kaizen)
and dramatically (kaikaku)
