What lean can do
Reduces inventory which in turn exposes risks that can then be identified and fixed (ship and water example)

Seven Rs of Good Customer Service
Right Product Right Quantity Right Condition Right Place Right Time Right Customer Right Price/Cost
Lean Manufacturing: Scheduling production lead time batch size inspection layout empowerment inventory turns flexibility costs
Scheduling - pull production - customer order lead time - short batch size - small inspection - 100% at source by workers layout - product flow empowerment - high inventory turns - 10+ flexibility - high costs - lower and decreasing
Traditional manufacturing: Scheduling production lead time batch size inspection layout empowerment inventory turns flexibility costs
Scheduling - push to forecast production - to stock lead time - long batch size - large batch and queue inspection - sampling by inspectors layout - functional empowerment - low inventory turns - <7 flexibility - low costs - high and rising
