FM explores taking on Lean

In mid-October AVP Mike Perez and a small group of his directors and direct reports visited the facilities group at the University of Washington. The purpose of the trip was to take a behind the scenes look at how Lean, an organizational process improvement approach which believes people are our greatest resource, is implemented in an organization similar to our own. Moving forward, the group is researching a number of process improvement methods with the goal of identifying the best fit for FM. More information to come in the January newsletter.
