Standard work is the practice of setting, communicating, following, and improving standards. Establishing standard work begins with process operators creating, clarifying, and sharing information about the most efficient method to perform a task that is currently known with everyone performing that process.

Training Within Industry (TWI) is often called the “Roots of Lean”. It was created by the United States during World War II to address the need to quickly and effectively train thousands of industrial workers to support production for the war effort.

This Workshop will touch upon:

• Overview of what Standard Work is
• How does it help and the benefits?
• How do you implement it?
• Overview of TWI (Training Within Industry)

What to Bring: Paper, pencil and a willingness to share how change is managed within your organization
