University of Washington: Keen on Lean
Faced with a deficit just two years ago, the University of Washington’s in-plant has turned its financial situation around and repositioned itself for success by implementing Lean production practices.
The Lean Journey Begins
In January 2010, the in-plant's parent department, UW Finance and Facilities, launched a department-wide Lean initiative under the direction of Senior Vice President V'Ella Warren. Creative Communications was among the first units to be tapped. It created its first Lean team in April 2010 and a second three months later.
