Industrial Engineering - Lean Manufacturing - Parent - Child Relationship


Industrial engineers are employed and productivity improvement and cost reduction are practiced in many companies using Industrial engineering philosophy, principles, methods, techniques and tools.


Operational Excellence and Industrial Engineering


In Novartis, IE is made part of Operation Excellence. Many more companies seem to be doing similar thing.


Operational Excellence is the execution of the business strategy more consistently and reliably than the competition. Operational Excellence is evidenced by results. Given two companies with the same strategy, the Operationally Excellent company will have lower operational risk, lower operating costs, and increased revenues relative to its competitors, creating value for customers and shareholders. It may more simply be interpreted as "Execution Excellence."
