Work in Process (WIP) or Standardized Work in Process (SWIP)

What is it?
Work elements between processing steps. In Lean systems, standardized work-in-process is the minimum number of parts (including units in machines) required to keep a core workflow or process running smoothly.

How can I help?
Limiting Work in Process reduces lead time. This is true for manufacturing as well as office processes.
