The words Lean Manufacturing, Lean Thinking, Kaizen, and Toyota Production System are talked about in many organizations. Simpler clients are among the few who talk about Lean and its large and lasting impact on their performance and profits.

Simpler has become the largest and fastest growing Lean-focused consulting company in the world by holding ourselves accountable for helping our clients achieve lasting, measurable results and a culture of never-ending improvement.

The basis for a Lean Transformation is simple—in using the most basic principles of the Toyota Production System there is a fundamental, systematic shift in the expectations, measures, performance, and culture of the company.

We chose the phrase “Lean Transformation” to emphasize the strategic nature of this effort. The power of Lean is only tapped if the Transformation becomes a core aspect of the company’s long-term business strategy.

We work to help create a business strategy that focuses on business excellence as measured by functional value, defect-free quality, outstanding delivery, and compelling value.
