 Video with examples.
 The trainer supplies all details enabling the group to build a system of project supervision – visual management – which will enable indicators display and development monitoring,
 Establish the financial impact on the operating account and balance sheet: score-board,
 Balancing cost/volume is hindered by the products mix, and work is disrupted by realistic incidents (i.e. non compliant raw materials, unspecified list of operations, communication issues, disregard of the guidelines, …).
