Identifying and Reducing the 8 Wastes in Lean Processes

This guide outlines effective strategies for spotting and countering the eight types of waste in lean processes: Transport, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Overproduction, Over-Processing, Defects, and Poor Utilization of Knowledge. Begin by observing the process directly or via video, noting all instances of waste. Use Post-it® notes to document each waste type individually for clarity. Finally, share your findings with the team by displaying the notes on a chart, fostering collaborative identification and resolution of inefficiencies.
