- Welcome to Lean Made Simple, a podcast about transforming your business - and life - one step at a time.
In this episode, Ryan Tierney from Seating Matters discusses the powerful lean principle: "One-Piece Flow!"
Along the way, he and Producer Matt talk about:
- Why batching is killing your business
- Escalators vs elevators
- How to introduce flow into your personal and professional life
- A better alternative to “annual team-building exercises”
- Why you should create a “river of production”
- The risks involved (and why they’re worth it)
- And how one-piece flow could change the world.
Check it out!

This is a fantastic intro to an important lean concept. I just acquired a small manufacturing business where I intend to implement 2 Second Lean. I'm going to share this video with my production manager and factory supervisor as a way to introduce them to the power of lean. Great job guys!
Glad it was helpful! And good luck with the new business 😀
One piece flow is a spiritual concept. It’s just like being in the present moment. Not what happened yesterday or last week or tomorrow. One piece flow is NOW! 🎉
Thanks for watching Tom, you always have incredible insights
I found the topic you discussed incredibly interesting. Thank you, folks, for hosting such a fantastic podcast. In my personal life, I've been practicing 2S Lean, and I've discovered that transportation waste is somewhat exceptional in certain ways.
When I transport a batch of items, I end up saving a considerable number of actions required to move these items from one place to another. For an example, It's akin to the concept of transporting wheat, whether by train or car. By leveraging economies of scale, I've realized that I can save more when transporting a larger batch via train.
Naturally, I endeavor to optimize the flow by minimizing the distance between task stages. However, there are occasions when I'm compelled to resort to batch transportation due to the fixed infrastructure in my house.
Thank you once again for the enlightening podcast!
One piece flow doesn’t always work. It’s not an all or nothing concept. For example when we paint, we need to post bake. It wouldn’t make sense to bake one part at a time. So look for places one piece flow works thru designing cells were more of the process can be completed in one stage, it doesn’t mean the entire process.
One piece flow is best applied to manufacturing in a given location. Although just in time reduces the size of the batches when transporting between locations. In the case of raw materials such as wheat one piece flow would be applied when converting the wheat into bread, noodles, etc.
@@davelelonek lean works mainly in manufacturing sector.
I think we are all taught that “batch is better“ from childhood. At least in America, history is hammered into us by saying that Henry Ford invented the assembly line. And it’s just assumed from then on that assembly line is faster and better and more productive.
Its a very natural habit to batch, most of us need 'one piece flow' to be proven to us before we believe it :)
Help me understand. In a place where we have to produce 500 pieces at a time. And the order itself is 500. Nothing can be ship until the 500 pieces are ready. How can we do a one piece flow.
What the name of the door factory please 😊
Hi Ryan, a bit off topic. This is not a criticism, it’s a genuine observation. Why is the trend in pod cast videos to have mics and sometimes headsets? On my iPhone with no external mic, the audio is outstanding. So my suggestion would be to find a desk mic so it’s concealed. I hope the suggestion is well received. And PS the content is excellent and one piece flow is very dear to my heart.
Because iPhone audio doesn't sound good when using nice headphones, listening in the car and in different environments. A microphone delivers clear, professional sound without static or random sounds. You may not notice it but it's definitely important. Also headphones can let them know if the microphone is picking them up properly or if any feedback is being generated.
@@ElAndresRodriguez so their are countless interviews without headsets or visible mics and the quality is top notch. IMHO, the video quality looks better without.
Personally... having no experience hosting for being a guest on a podcast...so take that for what you will...I would imagine it would be more personable to not have headsets and able to hear each other normally rather than through a headset.
Do a home birth if you have #2. Better environment and pretty much one piece flow 😅
😂 love it
