Summary/Abstract: Analyzing the difference between value and waste and value-added and non-value-added processes is crucial to understanding Lean. Sometimes it is not easy to discern the difference when looking at the entire supply chain. The best way is to look at the components of the supply chain and to apply Lean thinking in order to determine how to link the processes and reduce waste. In this paper special emphasis will be put on the coverage of methods and techniques and understanding of the philosophy of eliminating any wastes in the enterprise. Similarities between Six Sigma and Lean led to the connection of these concepts, so today there is Lean Sigma concept.
