Lean Enterprise for Accelerated Performance (LEAP)

In the Flat World, speed-to-market, supply chain performance, quality, and customer satisfaction of High-Tech companies are impacted by waste within the global supply chain. Poor cycle time performance causes excessive delays and bottlenecks, which need to be buffered by larger than necessary inventories. Capacity is wasted on non-value added activities resulting in poor utilization and performance.

 

To build a world-class supply chain adopting lean practices and leveraging change management methodologies, High-Tech companies need to:

  • Establish a globally recognized model for the enterprise and the supply chain
  • Ensure a lean supply chain for the new product introduction (NPI) business process
  • Identify productive and non-productive (engineering, order processing, shipping, etc.) opportunities for improvement
  • Eliminate wastage and bottlenecks by focusing on the flow of the “value stream”
  • Reduce total processing cycle time and improve customer on-time delivery and customer satisfaction

 

Infosys’ Lean Enterprise for Accelerated Performance (LEAP) solution utilizes the Toyota Production Methodology. Our solution enables High-Tech companies to optimize operational performance in the overall process cycle time, cash-to-cash cycle time, inventory turns, value added content, and customer satisfaction by applying lean principles.
