7 Wastes on a Production Line
Where waste hides in changeovers, work-in-progress, and material-handling between stations.

Lean training built for your line. Not a generic factory-floor course.
Enter your company. Our AI studies your products, processes, and real challenges, then builds video training that names your equipment and frames your problems — ready in as little as 2 hours.
- Examples from your operation — not someone else’s plant
- Lean & continuous improvement — 5S, standard work, 7 wastes, kaizen
- AI-built in hours — not month-long rollouts

“Kaizumi blew me away.”
Andrew LingelPresident, United Plastic Fabricating
Built for this reality
Shift huddle. SQDC board. Yellow safety lines underfoot.
When our AI writes a module for a CI manager or line lead, this is the scene it has in mind — your shift huddle, your SQDC board, your team. Operators see work cells, changeovers, standard work. Not stock-photo manufacturing.

Press play. Built for a vinyl window manufacturer — yours is rebuilt for your floor.
Every example came from their actual operation — their stations, their tooling, their language. That's what your team gets, but about your products and your processes.

Examples of what Kaizumi can build for your team
Modules that recognize the work.
Every module is generated from scratch for your roles, your processes, and your terminology. Below: a few examples of what we’ve built (or can build) for manufacturing teams.
M-02
5S for the Production Floor
Sort, set, shine, standardize, sustain — applied to workstations, tool boards, and shared work cells.
M-03
Standard Work for Operators
Cycle time, takt, and standardized sequences — framed for assembly, machining, or fabrication roles.
M-04
TWI Job Instruction for Line Leads
Standard four-step instruction method, applied to onboarding operators and cross-training shifts.
M-05
Value Stream Mapping for CI Managers
Current-state and future-state mapping — with examples from your process, not a textbook one.
M-06
Kaizen Events for Plant Leadership
Running a focused-improvement event from kick-off to sustainment — sized to your shop floor.
M-07
Error Proofing in Assembly
Poka-yoke principles applied to fastening, sequencing, and high-defect-risk stations.
M-08
Visual Management for Supervisors
SQDC boards, hour-by-hour tracking, escalation paths — for supervisors running the floor.

Turn your PDFs, slide decks, and process documents into dynamic video modules.
Upload what you’ve already invested in — SOPs, standard work documents, supervisor onboarding decks, the binder nobody reads. Kaizumi rewrites it into AI-generated video training, tailored to any role you need it for.

2 hrs
From request to first module
Submit your team’s context and we can have a finished 15–20 minute module in your inbox the same morning.
15–20 min
Module length, sized for huddles
Short enough to drop into a shift huddle or pre-clinic team-up. Long enough to actually teach a concept.
100%
Written for manufacturing
Not a generic Lean course with manufacturing photos pasted on top. Examples, language, and scenarios are manufacturing from the first line.
Designed for how adults actually learn
Built on proven learning principles. Sized for shop-floor reality.
Generic Lean training assumes a learner with a quiet classroom and an hour to focus. Yours has neither. Every Kaizumi module is engineered around the realities of shop-floor work and the way adults retain information.
1–3 min
Videos sized for shift breaks
Each module is a sequence of one-to-three minute videos. Long enough to teach a concept end-to-end; short enough to drop into a huddle, between cases, or on the walk back from rounds.
Andragogy
Built on proven adult-learning principles
Relevance-first. Problem-centered. Immediately actionable. The same principles that ground residency, simulation training, and competency-based education — applied to every Kaizumi module.
“That’s us.”
Your team recognizes themselves
Examples come from their line, their roles, their processes. A line lead sees a changeover. A supervisor sees their board. Engagement starts when learners stop thinking “this wasn’t built for me.”
Common questions
What to expect.
Per module, not per learner. Your whole team takes the same module for the same cost. Volume tiers apply on multi-module engagements. We scope pricing to your team at the discovery call — you leave with a fixed quote.
