Lean Analytics Association - LAA LAA collaborates with organisations in their transformation journeys LAA`s mission is to develop a network of global lean product development experts.

Therefore LAA collaborates with companies, universities, consulting firms, other associations, and lean experts. LAA was founded in 2012 as a spin-off association from the LeanPPD Project of which objective was to adopt lean thinking in product development. We provide lean product development training, assess the leanness of product development processes, and carry out on-demand consulting and research projects. Resources:
- LAA website: whitepapers, presentations, videos, and successful stories.
- Workshops on set-based concurrent engineering, value stream mapping, A3 LAMDA, knowledge-based life cycle, and lean assessment of product development processes. History:

From February 2009 to January 2013 a consortium of industrial, academic and research organisations collaborated on the Lean Product and Process Development (Lean PPD) research project funded by the European Union. These organisations included Rolls Royce, Indesit, Volkwagen, Visteon, Sitech, Sisteplant, Cranfield University, Tecnalia, Politecnico di Milano, EPFL, ATB, and Warwick University. The objective of the LeanPPD project was to enable companies to adopt Lean Thinking in the Product Development process. As a result, the LeanPPD model, and its associated tools and methodologies, were developed and tested with the support of the industrial partners. With the support of École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), the Lean Analytics Association (LAA) was launched in Switzerland in 2012 as a non-profit organisation to disseminate and exploit the LeanPPD project's results.

“Uncertainty has become the new normal, not just in manufacturing, but across all sectors.

We need to rethink how technologies such as AI can support us in navigating this changing landscape. How is AI transforming our organisations, our work, and our everyday lives?

The key is to embrace change, explore new opportunities, and turn uncertainty into a driver for innovation.”🚀

✨ EoE2026: An inspiring gathering to spark innovation, transformation, collaboration and meaningful connections! 🚀

Last week the city of Monterrey, Mexico, hosted the 18th edition of the Encuentro de Organizaciones Esbeltas (Lean Organisations Summit), organised annually by Caintra_nl and CCMTY. This event has established itself as a key platform for advancing Lean transformation and sharing experiences that create meaningful value across organisations.

Under the theme “Make It Lean, Make It Digital and Make It Sustainable”, this year’s edition brought together more than 500 participants from large and small-medium-sized companies, alongside distinguished speakers who shared emerging trends, practical insights and success stories to strengthen competitiveness driving continuous improvement and innovation.

👏 On behalf of LAA’s team we thank the entire organising team for their exceptional attention to detail and warm hospitality. And, of course, a huge thank you to all the participants for their enthusiasm, valuable contributions and active engagement throughout the sessions.

Without any doubts we are all taking away valuable learnings, new connections and, above all, the great satisfaction of exchanging ideas with a community committed to the continuous evolution of organisations.

EOE2026 has provided a fantastic opportunity to connect, learn, innovate and transform! 🌟

Let’s keep working together to drive a more Lean, digital and sustainable future!

Thank you to everyone who joined us this week for “Beyond Efficiency: Orchestrating Operational Innovation with AI and Design Thinking”.

Efficiency is no longer enough. Today, organisations must create new value.

Design Thinking puts people at the centre to co-create human-centred solutions. AI amplifies this approach with more information, more ideas and faster prototypes. It doesn’t replace human judgement; it strengthens it. The difference lies in asking the right questions and orchestrating technology with purpose.

Thank you all for your energy, teamwork and creativity, and thank you to CAINTRA NL and the Centro de Competitividad for opening these spaces. 💡

Now, let’s go to the Gemba and make it happen! 🚀

La innovación tiene un nuevo ritmo.

Al combinar Design Thinking e IA, los equipos pueden explorar más ideas, prototipar más rápido e iterar en ciclos más cortos, sin perder el enfoque en las personas.
