Missouri Enterprise Workforce Masterclass Series
Hosted in Partnership with Missouri Western State University
Featured Topic: Unlocking Value with a Lean Plant Assessment


Join us for the next session in Missouri Enterprise’s Workforce Masterclass Series, proudly hosted in partnership with Missouri Western State University.

This session will focus on one of the most powerful tools for driving operational improvement in manufacturing: the Lean Plant Assessment.

Lean maturity can vary significantly from plant to plant. Some operations are just starting their Lean journey and can immediately benefit from foundational tools and strategies. Others may know the basics but lack the time or internal resources to go deeper. Few are truly maximizing the value of a Lean culture.

In this Masterclass, we’ll introduce Missouri Enterprise’s Lean Plant Assessment, a robust tool built on the foundations of the Toyota Production System, SME Lean tools, and the Shingo Model for Operational Excellence. This assessment helps manufacturers understand their current state, prioritize opportunities, and create a roadmap for continuous improvement.

Key Takeaways:

  • Learn how to evaluate Lean maturity using a structured assessment tool
  • Explore real-world applications and measurable benefits
  • Understand how the tool supports Lean deployment plans and ongoing improvement
  • Discover how Lean drives cost reduction and boosts competitiveness

With Missouri Enterprise’s guidance and support, it all starts with a Lean Plant Assessment. Don’t miss this opportunity to take the next step in your Lean journey—right here at Missouri Western State University.
