Kaizen
Kaizen (改善) is a Japanese term for continuous improvement, and can be literally translated as "change for the
better". Striving for excellence, always looking for ways to improve what already exists, and believing that one
can impact change, is at the heart of the Kaizen spirit.
The Kaizen Stratey is a simple yet power business strategy that harnesses the Kaizen spirit and
practical continuous improvement tools into a holistic methodology for business improvement.
The Kaizen Strategy calls for never-ending efforts for improvement involving everyone in the organisation. When
fully implemented, everyone in the organisation participates in making improvement in quality in all business
areas. Reductions in cycle times, costs, and wastes, along with improved throughput, productivity and quality are
achievable outcomes.
The Kaizen Strategy is applicable to all industrial sectors. Kaizen has been implemented in many sectors
including manufacturing, enginering, financial, public and other service sectors.
Kaizen is sometimes called different names in different industries but the principles, tools and applications
remain unchanged. Kaizen is also commonly known as:
- Gemba Kaizen
- Continuous Improvement Programme, CIP
- Continual Improvement Programme, CIP
