Our LEAN Culture for Continuous Improvement.

In addition to our QMS, we have implemented LEAN concepts within our organization and processes. In fact, we are one of the first companies in Canada to apply LEAN concepts – generally applied to manufacturing – to service processes.

The LEAN philosophy and Kaizen aims to eliminate waste in all systems of an organization by improving standardized activities and processes. Each year we conduct Kaizens on several of our business processes. Employees from each of PF Collins’ departments participate in the Kaizen process, which includes the following phases:

  • Identify a problem or opportunity
  • Analyze the process
  • Develop an optimal solution
  • Implement the solution
  • Study the results
  • Standardize the solution

Through our work with LEAN, we have significantly reduced processing times in areas such as invoicing, inventorying, contracts, and operational workflows.
