Lean Product Development Workshop

(8 PDHs for NPDP Recertification)

Despite an increasing need for speed and efficiency, much of the effort expended by product development teams is often unnecessary and potentially wasteful. In many cases, only one hour in eight of team members' time is spent directly creating value for their customers. The Lean Product Development Workshop follows the new product development process from discovery to launch. We present leading-edge, practical tools for slashing waste and increasing speed and efficiency.

The “lean methods” described in this course enable dramatic reductions in time-to-market while freeing up valuable resources for additional project work. Firms that have embraced these practical, waste-eliminating tools have reported up to fifty-percent reduction in launch schedules, significant improvements in gross margin, and enhanced customer satisfaction. This 1-day hands-on workshop covers all aspects of the subject, including a step-by-step process for customizing your own lean process that will enable rapid, high-value product development.

What you will learn:  

  • How to apply lean tools throughout the new product development process starting from discovery to launch
  • How to realign activities within your process in order to get product to market quicker
  • How to recognize waste within your organization
  • How to prioritize the most important projects
  • How to implement important lean tools
  • How to develop a metrics baseline for measuring future success
