About Lean Lego Game
Who is Lean Lego Game for?
Since we all deal with and use processes in some form both at work and home, Lean Manufacturing training is useful for everybody. Yet, its usually taken by El Paso students working in manufacturing or service provision. In our course, El Paso students learn:
Lean Lego Game Course Overview:
Rather than death by PowerPoint, experience waste, push vs. pull processes, kanban, kaizen, systems thinking, and work cells in a fun exercise. This workshop is intended for students fairly early in their Lean journey but can be a fun refresher for more advanced practitioners. It can be run in either a short or longer session which never goes past half-day. A typical day looks like this:
| Iteration | Description | Duration (min) |
|---|---|---|
| Introduction | 20 | |
| 1 | Build Houses using a push system | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on families of waste, push vs. pull, and kanban | 20 | |
| 2 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on level-loading, systems thinking, and work cells | 20 | |
| 3 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective focused on kaizen | 20 | |
| 4 | Build Houses | 10 |
| Retrospective | 20 | |
| Conclusion | 20 | |
| Total | 160 |
A short session uses three iterations. A longer session uses all four.

More Cities
If El Paso won't work for you, don't worry. MBB Consulting™ also offers Lean Lego Game in the following recommended cities plus many more:
El Paso
Sun City
Excellent choice! El Paso is Spanish for "the pass". Population boomed with the introduction of railroads and the city developed into a manufacturing, transportation, and retail center of the Southwest. Oil discovery and copper smelting further engendered economic expansion. Meanwhile, El Paso developed culturally with several theaters, museums, festivals, rodeos, etc. If your Lean Lego Game is in June, check out the Southwestern International PRCA Rodeo. Otherwise, popular after-class entertainment options include Scenic Drive Overlook, Franklin Mountains State Park, El Paso Zoo, plus several more parks and museums.

 Nate W. Manufacturing Engineer Fluid Transfer - Piping, Tubing, Hoses, and Fittings I've taken an entire Lean Manufacturing course at OSU and this 8-hour training refueled my resolve for implementing 5S into my daily life. |
 Jongseok K. Senior Engineer Automotive This was pretty good class. This would be very helpful to conduct internal IATF16949 audit going forward. |
