The Lean Simulation Experience
The Lean Simulation Experience™ is a practical, immersive learning environment where teams understand Lean by living it — not by reading slides or watching a lecture.
Why Simulation Instead of Classroom Training?
Traditional classroom training doesn’t stick. Teams struggle to adopt Lean concepts when they haven’t seen the problems, felt the waste, or experienced Lean themselves.
Lean taught in a classroom is forgotten.
Lean taught through hands-on experience creates real transformation.
The simulation bridges the gap between knowledge and action. By living through chaos and then fixing it, participants internalize Lean principles in a way that is immediately applicable to their day-to-day operations.
The simulation runs on a real process, with real products and real challenges. This isn’t a toy exercise—it's an authentic production experience that floor associates instantly connect with.
The Lean Simulation Experience - FREE Express Workshop.
A high-energy, hands-on simulation designed for leadership teams who want clarity, flow, and immediate improvement ideas—fast.
The Lean Simulation Experience – EXPRESS™ is the no-risk, high-impact introduction to Lean thinking. In just ~2 hours, your team will run a real production process, experience chaos firsthand, learn core Lean tools, and redesign the workflow to achieve measurable improvements.
This is not a lecture.
This is not theory.
This is Lean you can feel.
Your team will walk away with:
A clear understanding of the real wastes affecting your operations
A practical hands-on introduction to Standard Work and why clarity matters
The mindset shift of root cause vs. firefighting
Actionable ideas they can apply the very next day
Who it’s for:
Plant managers, supervisors, production leads, CI teams, and any leaders responsible for performance, flow, or daily operations.
Format: On-site, 2–2.5 hours, 5 to 7 Participants
Price: FREE for qualifying manufacturing sites in NC, SC, and VA.

The Lean Simulation Experience - FULL Immersion
A full-day cultural transformation experience for teams ready to level up performance and adopt Lean sustainably.
The Lean Simulation Experience – FULL IMMERSION™ builds on the EXPRESS workshop and expands it into a complete Lean foundation. Teams run multiple simulation rounds, learning and applying Lean fundamentals at a deeper level. By the end of the session, participants have the clarity and confidence to implement Lean principles directly into their own processes.
Your team will walk away with:
A Lean mindset and a deeper understanding about why improvement matters
Understanding of the 8 types of waste and how to identify them on the floor
Practical knowledge to build, document, and apply Standard Work for any type of process and role
Fundamentals of Process flow, Cycle Time, Process capacity, and line balancing
5S foundation, OPM, Visual management, Performance Board, and OEE basics.
Team-based problem solving A3 methodology using rapid RCA + DMAIC
How to identify, prioritize, and fix performance losses
Your team leaves with a usable Lean toolkit, an aligned mindset, and a shared language for improvement.
Who it’s for:
Business Leadership, Managers, Operational teams, production operators, supervisors, CI leaders, engineering teams, cross-functional partners, and pretty much anyone in the organization hence Lean Concepts are applicable for any type of process, not just manufacturing. Enterprise and Admin associates have found a lor of value on these tools which are transferable for they day to day operation.
Format: On-site, ~7 hours, 8 Participants per session
Pricing: A variety of package options are available, from single-session workshops to multi-session engagements, and LSE leasing solutions. Custom LSE builds are available using your product and your process.
