The 5-Step Lean Principles Method followed by eLogic

1. Quantify Value
Lean practices start with understanding the value chain, and how each process step contributes to serving market and customer needs. We have have adapted Value Stream Mapping and Lean Process Design techniques to enable a quick, efficient and high-value analysis of the entire commerce value chain.

2. Eliminate Waste
By calculating costs, cycle times and error rates in each stage of the process, we identify and prioritize improvements. We develop short and long-range targets to eliminate waste. These measures drive the improvement process and develop the roadmap to results that incorporates the key process, systems, organization and data management projects to realize these gains.

3. Streamline Process Flow
High value commerce processes deliver results in a continuous, uninterrupted flow with a high level of automation of routine tasks. Customers do not perceive value and will no longer pay for inefficiencies of broken internal processes. We design Lean Processes that cover the full range of product differentiation with an optimized process for every customer order and no wasted time or effort.

4. Demand Driven Solutions
Product and service needs may vary at the level of market, industry, segment, and individual customer orders. We are experts at leveraging and integrating the systems technologies, processes, and data/information structures to ensure that customer needs are understood, managed, and incorporated into every product shipment.

5. Error-proof Activities
Without LEAN practices, as product differentiation increases, so do error rates. eLogic builds efficient and effective safeguards into all customer solutions. We know how to prevent errors without slowing down processes.
