MEP Courses Workshop participants learn lean definitions and techniques and explore the application of Lean techniques in a simulated office. Participants ultimately transform the simulated office in “stages.” At the end of the class, the office has been redesigned to improve customer and employee satisfaction and increase the speed of the order-to-cash cycle.
