Lean Thinking & the LCS

Lean thinking is about focussing on activities that add value for the customer by removing waste and barriers to smooth process flow. The application of Lean Thinking principles and techniques has grown significantly over the past three decades and they are now used in commercial, industrial and public service sectors globally.

The LCS was created by the Lean Enterprise Research Centre at Cardiff Business School in 2005. Check out the list of LCS accredited organisations, which include some of the world’s leading companies.
