Many people ask themselves where they stand: How does my organization measure up? Does it belong to the best or is it among the rest? What is the gap between where it is now and world-class? What can I do to narrow the gap?

The LEAN AUDIT BENCHMARKING app allows you to determine health and maturity level by assessing people, processes, setup and system, so you can make an accurate comparison between the existing configuration and industry best practices. Insights gained from the audit will help you identify the opportunities and course-corrections that ultimately lead to higher performance levels, while gaining a competitive edge from a leaner operation. All you need is to install this benchmarking app on your device and audit now!

The diagnostics program is generic enough to fit a broad range of businesses, yet specific enough to pinpoint both areas of excellence and areas in need of change. Performing a LEAN AUDIT helps you challenge the status quo and improve operational fitness to better compete in a rapidly evolving world. After completing the audit, you will receive an email with your assessment score relative to world-class benchmarks. A personalized, optional improvement report with detailed improvement suggestions is available for purchase.
