SUMMARY:Design It. Test It. Improve It.   Before You Build It.  How Lean\, 3P\, and AI Help Prevent Costly Design Mistakes and Create Better Work Environments
DESCRIPTION:What if you could discover design problems before they become expensive realities? \nImagine opening a new facility\, renovating a workspace\, or introducing a new operational layout\, only to discover that equipment doesn’t fit\, employees must walk unnecessary distances\, or the design creates safety and workflow challenges? \nWhat if the people who actually use the space could experience and test it before it was built? \nJoin the Continuous Improvement Lean Collaborative (CILC) for an engaging session exploring how Lean\, 3P (Production Preparation Process) uses low-cost\, full scale prototypes to help people physically test proposed environments before costly decisions become permanent. \nWe’ll also explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can help teams evaluate additional design scenarios and identify opportunities for improvement \nWhat you will Discover: \n\nExperience before construction: How physical mockups and simulations reveal problems that drawings and meetings can miss.\nReduce waste and costly rework: Identify layout\, movement\, safety\, and workflow issues earlier.\nEngage the people closest to the work: Move beyond asking for opinions to letting end-users actually test the design.\nExplore the possibilities of AI: Discover how AI-supported scenarios can complement Lean thinking and physical testing.\n\nWho should attend? \nWhether you work in healthcare\,manufacturing\, construction\, government services or another industry\, this session offers a different perspective on designing environments around people who use them. \nMeet your presenter \nDarlene Dumont\, Ph.D.\, LSSBB \nPresident & CEO\, A Better Culture (ABC)\, LLC \nDr. Darlene Dumont is a recognized Lean transformation leader\, executive advisor\, and change management expert with more than 30 years of experience guiding organizations through complex\, people-centered change. She has led and supported transformations across healthcare\, financial services\, manufacturing\, public service\, insurance\, aerospace\, academia\, and government. \nRegister at this link: Design It.
