Abstract: Abstract In previous lessons, you learned how to change a traditional batch-and-queue value stream into a Lean value stream. Now we will discuss the design of the actual work that will take place within the processes of the value stream. By going a level deeper we will be able to improve the flow of work within the different processes in the value stream. Specifically, you will learn how to design continuous flow work cells. The Lean principles described apply to any work, including that done in administrative areas, transactions (such as charging a credit card) services, and so on.
