Vancouver Lean Benchmarking Tour 2015 - Day 1

Today we successfully kicked off the Vancouver Lean Benchmarking Tour of 2015. The tour gives participants the opportunity to see first-hand how Lean methodologies and tools are applied in companies of all sizes and in different industries that are publicly recognized as a successful Lean facilitator.

The first stop of the tour was British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT), one of BC's largest post-secondary institutions, and then we ended the day by visiting Alpha Technologies Ltd, a leading manufacturer of power solutions for the Telecom, Traffic, Security, Industrial and Renewable Energy industries.
