Abstract
“We’re a laboratory situated alongside a factory, and when the plant received Lean training, we followed suit. It just seemed like the natural thing to do at the time, even though we are not the typical setting. And even though a lab is very different, the introduction of UCoPS and Lean to our routines largely felt like adding a bit of formal framework around the way we were used to thinking and working,” says lab manager Chris.
