    The Lean Tools You Will Put to WorkPractical Tools for Leaner Projects

    This programme is built around the practical Lean tools that make projects run leaner, covering the full 11-module syllabus. By the end, you can map value, remove waste, and lead continuous improvement in your own workplace.

    Map Value Streams End to End

    In Lean Project Management Training you learn to build current-state and future-state value stream maps, so you can see exactly where time, effort and value are lost across a project and target the biggest improvements first.

    Identify and Eliminate Waste

    Spot the different types of waste (non-value-added activities) in project processes and apply Lean techniques to remove them, cutting delays, rework and cost while protecting the value your customer actually pays for.

    Run Visual Delivery with Kanban

    Use Kanban to manage work in real time, limit work in progress, and make bottlenecks visible, giving project and operations teams a clear, shared view of flow and priorities day to day.

    Apply 5S and Poka-Yoke

    Organise the workplace with 5S and error-proof processes with Poka-Yoke, so quality is built in rather than inspected later. These tools keep delivery clean, consistent and less prone to costly mistakes.

    Drive Improvement with PDCA

    Embed continuous improvement using the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle, turning one-off fixes into a repeatable habit that steadily improves project performance and builds a lasting Lean culture in your team.

    Solve Problems with A3 and DMAIC

    Tackle project problems at the root using A3 thinking and DMAIC, structuring analysis, countermeasures and preventive actions so issues are solved once rather than recurring across future projects.

    Practical and Easy to Follow

    "Very practical two days. I came in knowing little about Lean and left able to run Kanban and 5S with my team. The trainer used real examples from operations, which made the concepts stick far better than theory would have."

    Operations Team Lead

    0/0

    Standardised How Our Teams Deliver

    "We ran this as onsite training for our project office. The team now shares a common language around waste and flow, and our delivery has become noticeably more consistent. The customised case studies for our sector were a real strength."
