Burton and Boeder discuss how integrate the total value stream, vertically, horizontally and laterally, and achieve success through empowered people and teams, cultural transformation, and an integration of Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen, and enabling IT technologies such as ERP, SCM, CRM, PLM networks, exchanges and portals.

The book illustrates how to develop, organize, launch and lead a successful enterprise-wide Lean operating philosophy, from the executive suite to the shipping dock, upstream and downstream through the total value chain. It includes methods, case studies, examples, models and tools for achieving 100% improvement 100% of the time”. -Business Times, Joel D. MacClaren “When you pick up many books on Lean most of what is written is about the shop floor. This book provides a holistic total value stream approach to Lean and builds a greater appreciation of the leadership strategy, execution and soft cultural practices that contribute to success.” - International Logistics Abstracts | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
