Lean lab checklist

The checklist is divided into improvement areas including housekeeping, workload development, workflows, performance management, equipment, and lab personnel skills. Defining and structuring these aspects of lab life can help you develop more controlled laboratory processes for more consistent and predictable performance. 

Lean lab benefits can include significantly increased productivity, reduced lead times, lowered costs, improved 'right first time', and a better understanding of capacity and resource requirements. Individual operators become more empowered to make a difference. A culture of continuous improvement evolves.

Operational changes prompted by the checklist can be initiated in small steps, module-by-module.
