According to Wikipedia “Lean manufacturing, lean enterprise, or lean production, often simply, ‘Lean,’ is a production practice that considers the expenditure of resources for any goal other than the creation of value for the end customer to be wasteful, and thus a target for elimination. Working from the perspective of the customer who consumes a product or service, ‘value’ is defined as any action or process that a customer would be willing to pay for.”
