activities line up and work together to produce a product or service
The activities are combined to form a process of value creation
The process flow consists of activities that are both value added and non value added
Must be tracked all the way upstream

#1 FlowFlow is completing the Value Added (VA) tasks in continuous
flow at the rate of customer demand in a standardized way
Requires the elimination of Non Value Added (NVA) activities between the steps
A process flows when the value added activities are lined up one after another, with no waiting and inventory between steps
40
![Page 41: Learn to Lean in Your Library](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/568134ef550346895d9c3038/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

#2 PullThe principle of pull implies that we would perform work only
when we have a true need from the customer
Pull system has one way to trigger and one way to respond
A good pull system is seamless, has a synchronized process and has no overproductions, asking, searching and clarifying

#3 Defect FreeDefect free operation means doing work in a way that meets
customer specified quality requirements the first time
As the work moves from step to step, quality is designed into the process so the outcomes are consistent, meets customer requirements and can be completed without re-work or inspection

#4 Visual ManagementVisual management allows everyone to distinguish normal
from abnormal conditions in 5 seconds or less
Process is transparent (everyone sees, knows and understands)
If abnormal conditions exist, then it triggers action
Sound visual management is the key to sustainability
