Newton, MA, June 21, 2017 --(PR.com)-- The Lean Operational Assessment for manufacturers offered by GBMP can check for long lead times, frequent or lengthy set-ups, bottlenecks, capacity constraints, excessive work-in-progress, large inventories and other factors that prevent companies from gaining a competitive advantage in today’s hyper-competitive world. For healthcare organizations, a Lean Operational Assessment can evaluate factors which contribute to patient dissatisfaction and negative cash flows such as inefficient referrals, delayed admissions, long wait times, medication and billing errors, and staff frustration.

The report also includes a concise roadmap for future improvements management can implement immediately to close the gaps.
