Lean Manufacturing: A Primer
Lean manufacturing emphasizes the minimization of the amount of all the resources (including time) used in the various activities of the enterprise. The typical areas of hidden waste are over-production, waiting, transportation, over-processing, motion, excessive inventory, and defective units.

OTHER CHEMICAL PRODUCT MANUFACTURING: is a host of other well-publicized MRP-related problems, such as complex bills of material (BOMs), inefficient workflows, transactions and activities that add no value, and poor (typically manual) data collection. It is not surprising then that companies struggling to serve their customers using purely traditional planning and costing methodology are often unable to meet the demands for agility and responsiveness that consumers at the end of the supply chain are requesting. Consequently, for some time now
