One of the fundamental methodologies of Kaizen is the Just-in-Time (JIT) system. JIT promotes optimized resource allocation, efficiently using product, schedule, and quantity to reduce production and operating costs. JIT establishes the basic groundwork for a true Kaizen working environment.

The Genba Kaizen seminar consists of both lecture and field practical lessons. Attendees learn how to improve their Genba (work site) through the lecture on the basic JIT concept, as well as field training covering the standardized work for Takt time production.

These concepts are the crucial building blocks of Kaizen; they are essential for anyone who will oversee the implementation of Kaizen activity. The Genba Kaizen seminar also offers a prime opportunity for an organization’s executives to understand what Kaizen is and how it can benefit a company.
​
You will:
  • Understand what Kaizen is and how it can benefit your company
  • Learn how to initiate Kaizen activities at your Genba
  • Learn how to analyze the production system at your Genba
  • Learn how to make immediate improvement at your Genba at little to no cost
