Virginia Mason Hospital and Medical Center has published many articles regarding Lean in hospital/health care. They joined the fad and named their effort VMPS (that’s right, Virginia Mason Production System). Apparently there is a Lean event every week. That’s impressive for a hospital. Should not be hard to find material. |

Hello Kenneth, @KenSG I’ve had the opportunity to work with Patrick Noonan (http://www.linkedin.com/pub/patrick-noonan/3/710/a31) and Brian Boyette (http://www.linkedin.com/pub/brian-boyette/1/b90/b31). Both have extensive hospital (Private, Public & VA) and medical device experience. Are you looking for a specific example? |

Kenneth … Do a search on Lean Starwood Hotels, Marriott Hotels, and Hilton Hotels and you will find many examples. You will have to do some investigation on the different sites as the examples are not well published. I had to sell a hospitality industry on both Lean and Six Sigma and they were interested in examples. Kevin Clay |
