Lean focuses on avoiding and eliminating the seven wastes-defective products, overproduction, excessive work-in-process inventory, over-processing, unnecessary movement of people, unnecessary movement of products, and waiting.  While it started in the automotive market, these same principles apply to the graphic communications market.
