Lean Manufacturing Solutions (LMS) was formed in order to meet the growing interest in the Toyota Production System (TPS), which is sometimes also referred to as Lean Manufacturing. The primary objective of LMS is to support manufacturers who have a desire to implement the Toyota Production System within their company. 

The list of companies and types of industries we support are many and can be found throughout North America, South America and Europe.

The LMS partners gained extensive TPS experience from their years at the Toyota Supplier Support Center (TSSC). As original members chosen for this unique and specialized experience, they learned TPS at the hands of Toyota’s foremost TPS experts, Mr. Hajime Ohba and Mr. Fujio Cho.

Facilitating JIT Simulation

This exclusive TPS training has allowed us to lead an impressive number of traditional manufacturing companies (both existing and new plant start-ups), with extremely varied products and mass production systems, to a system that is the Toyota Production System.

Shop Floor First...

LMS consultants believe the only true way to learn about Lean Manufacturing is on the shop floor. Following the guiding principles of TPS,  LMS consultants use a hands-on approach in working with companies, as opposed to a classroom-only approach. The "Shop Floor First" method is what enables companies to develop their own version of TPS throughout their plant.
