* Apply the principles of pull, flow, and the elimination of waste to every area of the company, at every stage from "quotes to cash" * Implement a continuous improvement process--while sidestepping the typical implementation pitfalls * Ease scheduling problems * Improve performance and profitability using the book"s practical concepts, process analysis tools, and perspective-enhancing techniques--and much more.
