EMGT 6926 - Lean Supply Networks


Builds fundamental lean systems skills to effectively design, plan, and execute lean supply networks that deliver value to customers. With the ongoing global pressure of cost cutting and quality focus, many companies have been implementing “lean manufacturing” concepts to survive in this competitive marketplace. While this is a good start, lean concepts need to be implemented beyond the four walls of a company across its supply chain. Lean principles do not only apply to manufacturing but to service organizations as well. This course helps students understand the principles of lean, supply chain management, and provide you with the related tools and techniques to make supply chains and companies deliver goods and services successfully. Students are exposed to industry cases from major companies that illustrate the challenges of managing lean supply networks.
