Creating a Lean R&D System

This book lays out the logic of why Lean implementation isn‘t strictly for manufacturing and describes why it can be just as effective in R&D organizations. Terence Barnhart former senior director of continuous improvement at Pfizer R&D describes the theoretical and physical underpinnings of creating a Lean transformation in any R&D organization as exemplified by the Lean transformation initiated within the R&D division of a global pharmaceutical company.
