Abstract
When a manufacturer company is developing a project, or when the manager is programming also a simple work, it is necessary have execution steps for arriving at the end on time and without lacks of completion. In management of continuous improvement, this may easily get by a "Kaizen Week", lean method focuses on aims that an organization needs to achieve, using its resources in a program that want to improve a specific productive field. Indeed word “Kaizen” is the composition of two Japanese terms, “KAI” (change) and “ZEN” (better); thus, “change for better” retrieves the fundamental concept of continual improvement. Before and during the week of Kaizen, collecting data is required for its application to identify and solve the problem as well as achieve the final goal: all improvement activities must be carry out in the office looking at the materials, operators, information and equipment; furthermore, all activities have to be documented using the standard module developed for the week. The application of this program depends how far the company’s management incorporates the “lean” model in the execution of its activities.
