HISTORY: The Iowa Lean Consortium originated in 2010 when leaders from various organizations in Iowa came together to share best practices regarding process improvement. What began as 10 organizations willing to share ideas had grown into a dynamic network of over 100 organizations from Iowa and surrounding states.
The power of this Consortium lies within the willingness of the members to engage, share, and learn. We look forward to helping you and your organization improve its people and processes and ultimately its productivity.
We welcome members from ALL sectors of the economy.
