The ROI case is simple

$96
per person, first session (8 participants)
<$10
per person after 10 sessions
60-90 min
vs. 1-5 days for traditional training
Unlimited
reuse — no recurring costs

Compare that to $200-$500 per person for a lean seminar, or $2,000-$5,000+ for a consultant day-rate.

What your team will learn

The simulation walks participants through four progressively complex phases of an airplane factory. They start with traditional batch manufacturing, then redesign their work area into a lean cell with one-piece flow, pull systems, and balanced workloads. Along the way, they experience supplier problems, quality issues, and demand changes — just like in real operations.

Cellular manufacturing layout

Why grouping equipment and people by process flow reduces waste and lead time

One-piece flow with pull systems

How producing one unit at a time to customer demand eliminates WIP buildup

Work balancing & flexible workforce

How to adjust staffing and task assignments based on changing demand

Lead time reduction

Why shorter lead times improve customer responsiveness and reduce inventory risk

No external facilitator needed

Every kit comes with a complete facilitator manual, a step-by-step checklist, workstation instructions for all four rounds, and a PowerPoint teaching aid. Any manager, trainer, or team lead can run a successful session after about 20 minutes of preparation. You don't need to be a lean expert — the simulation teaches the concepts for you.
