Irani and Jin Zhou Department of Industrial, Welding and Systems Engineering The Ohio State University Columbus, OH 43210 Introduction Lean Thinking, a concept that is based on the Toyota Production System, extends continuous improvement efforts to reduce the costs of serving customer/s beyond the physical boundaries of a manufacturing facility, by including the suppliers, distributors and production system that support the manufacturing function [Womack and Jones, 1996]. These improvements and cost reductions are achieved by eliminating the muda (wastes) associated with all activities performed to deliver an order to a customer. Wastes are defined as all activities that consume resources (add costs to the product ) but contribute zero Value to the customer.
