The concept of lean operation has been around since 1948 when Japanese industrial engineers Taiichi Ohono and Eji Toyoda began developing the idea in order to improve efficiency in Toyota’s assembly line vehicle production. Building on its success in manufacturing, lean’s revolutionary methodology has been
