Abstract
This booklet, published in June 2006 replaces Cause and Effect Lean that sold (in various versions) over 30,000 copies. The book explains Flow and Lean principles by using fishbone (Ishikawa) diagrams. A new feature is that the book is built around the proven FLOW framework developed by Kate Mackle of Thinkflow Create flow, Maintain flow, Organize for flow, and Measure for flow. There are 57 figures most of tem fishbone diagrams showing everything from 5S to 7 wastes, from lean design to lean supply, and from policy deployment to mapping. Brief text accompanies each figure. The figures are arranged in landscape format one figure to an A5 page. An end-to-end overview of Lean in one book.

SimLean: a reference framework for embedding simulation in lean projects

Yan Jia
TL;DR: A main contribution of the developed system is its ability to simplify, facilitate and standardize simulation modelling in lean projects, which dramatically reduces building blocks in the model, saves model constructing time and eliminates errors in logic design.
