    The Market Place is a Jungle

    Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up.It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion

    or it will be killed. Every morning a lion

    99

    wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowestgazelle or it will starve to death.

    It doesnt matter whether you are a lion or agazelle - when the sun comes up, you hadbetter be running.

    Value Added- Any activity that increases the market form orfunction of the product or service (things the customer is willing to

    pay for).Non-Value Added Activities must be eliminated, simplified,reduced or integrated.

    Workplace Organization (5s)

    Sort - what is not needed, sort

    through, then sort out; When in

    doubt, throw it out!

    Set-In-Order - what must be kept;

    make it visible and self-explanatory

    3434

    Shine - everything that remains.

    Clean equipment, tools and

    workplace

    Standardize - the clean routine to

    other areas. Make it more automatic

    Sustain - requires discipline, stick to

    the rules and make them a habit
