Mastering Lean Product Development: A Practical, Event-Driven Process for Maximizing Speed, Profits, and Quality (9780966269741): Ronald Mascitelli: Books. Now, having 18 yrs in Lean I have seen and heard many different types of waste within manufacturing and engineering systems. But, in my opinion it all boils down to communication, communication, communication! I believe that Ron's Lean Product Development and Lean Design processes are the BEST set of integrated processes and tools to have in my Lean toolbox to help solve any of the issues that may arise! I have told many people that I truly believe that Ron's processes and tools help close the gaps that have always existed between the manufacturing & engineering worlds! --Shawn Klinge - Lean SenseiWorking in a world with an ocean sized library of everything Lean, it is refreshing to apply Ron's methodology. These methods are centered around an intense focus on the 20% of the activities in the Lean library that translate to 80% of the benefits. Today's Lean methodologies range from simple waste elimination all the way to the microscopic analysis practices imbedded in Six Sigma, Statistical Process Control, and Total Quality Management. The genius in Ron's approach is its center around simplicity and pragmatism that helps transcend the reader to a holistic view of their business; all accomplished at realistic levels of resource investment. This simplicity drastically reduces barriers to entry when talking about macro-level shifts in a company's working culture. The overwhelmed glassy eyes in the class room shift to sparkling engagement while working with this methodology. I would recommend this approach for companies with little to no resources all the way to the 10,000 pound gorillas of industry, it just works. --Nick Phillips - Senior Design EngineerRon Mascitelli's real-world engineering experience, clear writing style, and pragmatic approach to the complex and multifaceted subject of Lean Product Development and Lean Product Design has helped our business accelerate the implementation of a robust New Product Introduction process. He has compiled a very useful and efficient set of development and design tools, allowing us to select and implement the appropriate approach to meet the needs of our business. --Mike Oberlander - VP, Lean Sigma
