Focus for improvement: Value-adding activities = minor gains due to the existing efficiencies. Wasteful Non-Value Added activities = major reduction Example of keeping it simple: NASA spent thousands of hours and millions of dollars to invent a pen that worked in zero gravity. The Russians used a pencil. Key idea: Don’t make capital investments on improving VAs until you’ve reduced the NVAs to a point where they achieve an equilibrium with the VAs. Exceptions (when you would make a capital investment in a VA process) to gain a competitive advantage: Safety issues need to be addressed. Qual
