ABSTRACT
In Chapter 2, we introduced the concept of the maturity path to Lean Accounting. The subsequent chapters presented the methods of Lean Accounting that were introduced in the earlier chapters. What remains to be discussed is how to get started on the Lean Accounting journey. This entails assessing where on the maturity path the company’s accounting and control processes currently lie and developing the steps for proceeding forward from that point. What is needed is a diagnostic tool. This chapter deals with just such a tool, which has been tailored to the needs of companies that want to know where they currently are on the Lean Accounting maturity path.
