Waste

This week, let's chat about the 8 wastes and my favorite acronymn DOWNTIME. In all caps. Intimidating. The 8 wastes are not actually intimidating, but they are everywhere and once we can learn to see them we can learn to prevent them. We'll talk defects, overproduction, waiting, non-utilzation of talent, transportation, inventory, motion, and extra-processing and how a good ol' Gemba walk can spot the waste in any process.
