Experts identify how lean manufacturing and energy savings practices boost productivity and cut costs through an integrated approach.

“The average savings will be expressed based on the number of employees and the square footage, which is more useful for interested firms in quickly calculating potential energy savings based on their own size (employees and square footage). The implementation rates tell the times that a particular recommendation was implemented; and the average payback period is used as a measure of return of investment.”

“Kaizen events can often improve process efficiencies from 20% to 100% in two to three sessions. These continuous improvement events are perhaps the most significant step in this methodology because it requires functional teams to analyze the current energy consumption status.”
