Role of Certified Lean practitioner:

The Lean practitioner is the initiator of the Lean improvement processess, and Lean implementation. A hands-on professional with just one goal: to develop the perfect process, and inspire those involved to do better on a daily basis. The Lean Practitioner has an excellent command of the Lean methods and tools, is familiar with Lean principles. And inspires others to participate in the improvement process.


IASSC Certified Lean Practitioner Body of Knowledge Topics

1. Introduction to Lean – An introduction of Lean including definitions, benefits, principles, and history. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

2. Gemba (The Real Place) – A philosophy that reminds us to get out and spend time on the “floor” – the place where real action occurs. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

3. Kaizen (Continuous Improvement) – A strategy where employees work together proactively to achieve regular, incremental improvements in the process. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

4. KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) – Metrics designed to track and encourage progress towards critical goals of the organization. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

5. MUDA (Wastes) / MURA (Fluctuation) / MURI (Overburden) – the three families of efficiency losses. Muda (Waste) being anything in the creation process that does not add value from the customer’s perspective. MURA (Fluctuation) is a waste of unevenness or inconsistency and it works against efficiency, Mura creates many of the seven wastes that we observe, Mura drives Muda! By failing to smooth our demand we put unfair demands on our processes and people and cause the creation of inventory and other wastes. MURI (Overburden) to give unnecessary stress to our employees and our processes. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

6. 5S – Sort (eliminate that which is not needed), Set In Order (organize remaining items), Shine (clean and inspect work area), Standardize (write standards for above), Sustain (regularly apply the standards). Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

7. Bottleneck Analysis – Identify which part of the process limits the overall throughput and improves the performance of that part of the process. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

8. Continuous Flow – Creation where work-in-process smoothly flows through production with minimal (or no) buffers between steps of the process. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

9. Takt Time – The pace of production that aligns production with customer demand. Calculated as Planned Production Time / Customer Demand. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

10. Value Stream Mapping – A tool used to visually map the flow of production. Shows the current and future state of processes in a way that highlights opportunities for improvement. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

11. Flow diagram (or swim-lanes diagram) – Visual mapping of a transactional / cross-functional process showing tasks sequence for each actor on parallel lanes, to highlight the complexity, lost time, irritants, thus showing improvement opportunities and project a target improved process. Blooms Level: Understand

12. Spaghetti diagram – Visual tool to represent the physical flow of products or movements of persons, highlighting wastes, safety or cross-flow quality risks. Blooms Level: Understand

13. Jidoka (Zero Defect Principle) – Aiming for zero-defect, by preventing their occurrence, signalizing, reacting as quickly as possible, and solving definitively. This relies on various tools and techniques such as Autonomation, Andon, Poka-Yoke, Root-Cause Analysis, and Quick Response Quality Control. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

14. Andon – Visual feedback system for the plant/office “floor” that indicates production status, alerts when assistance is needed, and empowers operators to stop the process. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

15. Poka-Yoke (Error Proofing) – Design error detection and prevention into production processes with the goal of achieving zero defects. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

16. Root Cause Analysis – A problem-solving methodology that focuses on resolving the underlying problem instead of applying quick fixes that only treat immediate symptoms of the problem. A common approach includes the use of Ishikawa (fish-bone diagram) and 5 Whys.. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand

17. Standardized Work – Documented procedures for production that capture best practices (including the time to complete each task) in order to avoid variability of practices and favoring sustainability of Kaizen improvements. Must be “living” documentation that is easy to change. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

18. Visual Management – Visual indicators, displays, and controls used throughout facilities to improve communication of information. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

19. Short Interval Control / Active Supervision – Set of standardized management rituals to monitor Safety / Quality / Delivery / Cost performances in a timely manner to allow early reaction and daily improvements, involving field actors (in consistence with Gemba and collective intelligence logic): measurements at the workstation, stand-up operational meetings, Gemba walks, shift hand-overs, relying on the Visual Factory. Blooms Level: Understand

20. SMART Goals – Goals that are: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-Specific. Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Apply

21. PDCA (Plan, Do, Check, Act) – An iterative methodology for implementing improvements: Plan (establish the plan and expected results), Do (implement plan), Check (verify expected results achieved), Act (review and assess; do it again). Blooms Taxonomy target level (max): Understand
