Why LeanShift?
Actual cost instead of assumed cost
A costing rate shows what a process is meant to cost. LeanShift measures what it actually costs, cycle by cycle and as a figure you can rely on.
Improvement becomes everyone's responsibility
Whoever runs a process records it and sees at once what a change achieves. Expertise on the floor grows into an organisation that improves itself continuously.
Insight arises where the work is done
The recording comes from value creation, not from the office. Management receives the measured process instead of a second-hand report.
