Abstract

This  document  presents  an  improvement  framework  that  management  can  use  to  reduce  the  waste in  the  manufacturing  process.  This  framework  will  primarily  consist  of  an  improved  facility  layout  to  reduce  wasted  space  and  time  during  kit  preparation,  but  will  also  explore  other  activities  that promise waste reduction.
