ABSTRACT
While one portion of the Kaizen Team is delivering new process training to the workforce impacted by the improvements, the remaining team members focus on activities that will formally conclude the event. The activity that culminates the Kaizen Event is the team presentation, discussed later in the chapter. The Kaizen Event Tools file on the CD contains a number of tools to help the Kaizen Team communicate its results and set the stage for sustainability, several of which are shared during the final presentation:
• Kaizen Event Report (Tab 8)
• Sustainability Plan (Tab 9)
• 30-Day List (Tab 10)
• Parking Lot Issues (Tab 11)
• Team Presentation Agenda (Tab 12)
This chapter describes each of these tools and provides tips for a successful conclusion to the Kaizen Event.
