Smart & Lean
Our work helps build capacity and enhance sustainable Operational Excellence in organisations, networks and systems via practice-oriented and technology-based experiments toward innovation
Experiments Toward Capacity Development and Innovation
Innovation
Smart & Lean creates innovative solutions for practice-oriented challenges that improve real-life processes and value chains. We apply research and innovation methodologies that are based in data and evidence, are practical and are rooted in Lean and Lean Six Sigma principles.
Capacity Development
Based on Continuous Improvement (CI), Lean, Lean Six Sigma and Harada methods, Smart & Lean aims to bring together people with different backgrounds and from a range of disciplines to form teams around a problem or an idea to collaboratively learn, solve problems and develop ideas.
“If you want to go quickly, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”
