Enterprise software for lean environments is different than the classic MRP or ERP systems. Many companies use “software” for their lean planning, in the form of custom Excel spreadsheets. My former employer is continuing to work on software to support the planning and execution tasks in a lean environment. It's not a total lean solution (culture, continuous improvement, and leadership are still critically important), but it can provide helpful tools for planners and the shopfloor.

Let’s work together to build a culture of continuous improvement and psychological safety. If you're a leader looking to create lasting change—not just projects—I help organizations:
- Engage people at all levels in sustainable improvement
- Shift from fear of mistakes to learning from them
- Apply Lean thinking in practical, people-centered ways
