LeanSuite - Lean Manufacturing Software

About LeanSuite: We're building the operating system for the modern factory

LeanSuite is lean manufacturing software, founded in 2021, that gives plants one connected platform to replace paper, run daily management and continuous improvement, and help frontline teams do their best work.

OUR STORY

Closing the gap inside the four walls

ERPs connect the supply chain, but inside the factory a gap remains: hard reporting, poor communication and constant firefighting. LeanSuite connects the plant's people, processes and technology in one source of truth.

  1. LeanSuite's Create New menu: Suggestion, F-Tag, Kaizen, QA Matrix, EWO and Best Practice

    Where it started

    LeanSuite was founded to close the gap between the systems that run the business and the people who run the shop floor.

  2. A list of frontline suggestions with their status and a suggestion being approved

    The voice of the frontline

    We launched Suggestion and Tagging modules to capture ideas and issues straight from the frontline.

  3. A skills matrix showing each operator's level on each station

    Growth and expansion

    Customer feedback led to our Skills Management and Kaizen modules, so teams could tie their daily work to real improvements.

  4. Lean AI grouping similar suggestions so they can be reviewed together

    The year of intelligence

    We introduced our first Lean AI features, which automate the analysis of frontline data so teams find insights faster.

  5. A best practice being rolled out across several plants

    Scaling for the enterprise

    We completed our SOC 2 Type 1 audit and improved our integration tools for leaders who run several sites.

  6. Vision AI analysing a process video and producing time and motion, line balancing and ergonomic results
    New

    Vision AI

    We launched Vision AI: one process video becomes a time and motion study, line balancing, ergonomic and SMED analysis, a value stream map and an SOP.

OUR VISION

Building the ecosystem for continuous improvement

Beyond software, we are building a community for continuous improvement: shared data, training on demand and a network of peers to solve hard problems.
