organizations. Implementing Lean IT. This book introduces the I.T.
Pattern Matching Methodology; classifying I.T. work into Patterns
and matching them with corresponding Lean Tools by: 1) Recognizing
that a manufacturing approach is not an out-of-the-box fit for I.T.
work. 2) Starting a Lean Culture by listening to the voice of the
customer and establishing visual metrics & goals. 3) Giving
voice to your goals by deploying internal marketing campaigns in
order to level-set key stakeholder's expectations. 4) Moving out by
matching specific work with repeatable patterns and lean tools that
reduce waste and establish pull / flow. Is your company currently
implementing Lean manufacturing based on the Toyota Production
System (TPS)? If so, IT and other knowledge work organization may
find themselves in the position of attempting to create a Lean
structure using blueprints intended for operations and production
groups. Many IT professionals have jettisoned their Lean efforts
citing issues related to wasted time and a lack of synergy with the
Lean toolset. A recent internet poll shows that 41% of IT
professions preferred practical examples on how to implement Lean
IT over other tools and management support. The "Lean Tower of IT"
is such a resource. The Pattern Matching Methodology provides
valuable, practical examples of how to start and execute the
creation of your own Lean IT culture.
