Kaizen Lean continuous improvement for teams

Continuous Improvement gives individual teams an approach to raise their performance and deliver benefits that are immediate, tangible and repeatable.

Bourton Group Process Improvement

We work with operational work teams in both physical and transactional environments, giving them a systematic, Lean continuous improvement / lean Kaizen approach to raise their performance and deliver benefits that are immediate, tangible and repeatable.

We introduce new ways of working to help teams develop daily improvement habits through our Lean Daily Management System®, which includes five simple elements that bring about team improvement and a sustainable lean culture:

  • Daily Work Group Meeting – a short regular team review
  • Primary Visual Display – maintained by the team for the team
  • Kaizen Action Sheet System – a way of capturing local opportunities
  • Short Interval Leadership – building the leader’s role
  • 20 Keys™ of Office Kaizen – a simple self assessment tool

Using the disciplines of our LDMS® gives managers and teams greater ownership of their processes and outputs. By engaging people in lean continuous improvement activity it also helps improve morale, job satisfaction, internal communication and builds problem-solving capability.
