Summary: To enhance and sustain its lean journey, a company must implement information systems that fully support and enhance the lean initiative. In this book, Jean Cunningham and Duane Jones introduce a case study of an actual lean implementation involving an IT system of a mid-size manufacturer, highlighting the IT issues faced during lean transformation. The book suggests changes that will be required in an information system to make it a partner with, rather than a barrier to, a company becoming a lean manufacturer and ultimately a lean enterprise. It showcases opportunities that will arise for the information systems team to eliminate waste and apply lean principles in its own operations.
