    Our company is growing rapidly each year but faces challenges around inventory levels, on-time production, and maintaining quality. To address these issues, we will implement a continuous improvement program using Lean Manufacturing principles to eliminate waste and work more efficiently. Key aspects will include forming cross-functional teams to map our processes, identify sources of waste, and develop solutions through Kaizen events and standard work practices. The goal is to produce more with our current resources while lowering inventory and ensuring on-time deliveries of high-quality products.
