The purpose of this paper is to discuss the benefits generated from the application of lean tools in banking services. We will highlight on challenges, advantages, and principal success factors for lean implementation. As financial markets are experiencing changes so it’s mandatory to create a streamlined bank to meet the new expectations in a timely manner while continuing to lower operational...

Several migratory bird species show active cycles of hypertrophy and atrophy of nutritional organs and selected muscle groups. We develop a model for nutritional organs to identify the conditions under which such a pattern of structural change is optimal. Migrants may choose the size of two components of lean mass: a constant component that they carry throughout the entire migration period and ...

We discuss the homotopy type theory library in the Lean proof assistant. The library is especially geared toward synthetic homotopy theory. Of particular interest is the use of just a few primitive notions of higher inductive types, namely quotients and truncations, and the use of cubical methods.

lean thinking requires certain techniques and tools to support lean processing and to penetrate an organization in which 5s system (sorting, set in order, shining, standardization, sustaining) is to develop value process workflow system. kanban, a card containing a set of manufacturing specifications and requirements used to regulate the supply of components, is one of the most famous and impor...

conclusions these findings suggest that lean mass was the most important predictor of bmd in both genders. physical activity appears to positively impact on lean mass and needs to be considered in physical education and health-enhancing programs in iranian school children. background body weight is made up of lean and fat mass and both are involved in growth and development. impression of these...

background recognizing the significant impact of wait times for care for individuals with complex chronic conditions, we applied a lean methodology, namely – an adaptation of value stream mapping (vsm) to meet the needs of people with multiple chronic conditions and to improve wait times without additional resources or funding.   methods over an 18-month time period, staff applied a patient-cen...

Lean production has become an integral part of the manufacturing landscape as its link with superior performance and its ability to provide competitive advantage is well accepted among academics and practitioners. Lean production helps producers in overcoming the challenges organizations face through using powerful tools and enablers. However, most companies are faced with restricted resources ...

Just-in-time (JIT) is an important topic of lean manufacturing and services, focusing on the reduction of the waiting time. In this study, a JIT ubiquitous output system is established based on the application of a handheld intelligent device. The system can be regarded as a location aware service (LAS). The JIT ubiquitous output system starts from the detection of the user’s location and speed...

lean cell operates itself by what is called standard operations. job rotation is known as the standard operation of a lean cell. however, researchers have not studied job rotation to demonstrate the performance of a lean cell. job rotation decisions affect lean cell performance through influencing the manner in which tasks assigned to the selected operators during several rotation periods. this...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to explore if six sigma and lean are new methods, or if they are repackaged versions of previously popular methods – total quality management (TQM) and just-in-time (JIT). Design/methodology/approach – The study is based on a critical comparison of lean with JIT and six sigma with TQM, a study of the measure of the publication frequency – the number of aca...
