LAI presenting at MARTS 2012

On Wednesday, March 14, Ed Stanek, Jr, President of LAI, will be presenting 7 Deadly Wastes in Maintenance: How to Identify, Quantify and Eliminate Productivity Killers at the MARTS 2012 conference.

Presentation Summary:
"Well known in the Lean World, the Seven Wastes (Muda) are typically applied to production applications. However, these Seven Wastes are easily found in maintenance, and responsible for reducing maintenance effectiveness as much as 75%! This session follows the DMAIC (define, measure, analyze, improve, control) Model to identify the Seven Wastes in maintenance with examples in Corrective, Reactive and, surprisingly, Preventive Maintenance work types. By identifying these non-value-added losses in your system, you can measure the impact on both your systems and the overall operation, as well as analyze the gaps in your maintenance/reliability master plan."
