Developing internal LEAN Champions helps organizations successfully implement proven techniques for eliminating waste. Using a comprehensive and hands-on approach, MMTC's LEAN Champion training teaches team leaders to apply LEAN Business Solutions within their own operations, resulting in reductions in the time and cost to executive business processes.

MMTC’s REAL FACTORY is a unique feature of our LEAN training program. Enhancing the classroom instruction, students reinforce LEAN training principles by transforming a traditional batch-process into a LEAN cellular manufacturing process.The facility is utilized to demonstrate a participants ability to apply LEAN tools.

MMTC Offers a practical, hands-on approach to discovery learning, which enables students to become LEAN practitioners by applying LEAN tools in our REAL FACTORY setting.
