ERP Systems ≠ Lean
Description
In this episode of Lean by Doing, I dive into the complexities and challenges of implementing ERP systems in lean manufacturing environments. While ERP systems are often seen as solutions to a wide range of business problems, I’ve found that they can actually introduce significant inefficiencies and hidden costs. Drawing from my own experiences, I talk about the importance of data integrity, the potential for waste, and why businesses need to critically assess their reliance on ERP systems. I also suggest exploring alternatives like AI and lean methodologies before fully committing to an ERP solution.
