Reviews

'At last a book that correctly positions technology not as an end but as a means to achieve business benefits.' Enrico Camerinelli, Senior Industry Analyst 'Lean and Digitize is a clear and effective account of how information technologies and lean approaches can support each other in radically transforming an organization. The method presented is strengthened by references to lived experiences - from large as well as small companies - and will help the readers in implementing it in their own organization.' Corrado Cerruti, Professor, University of Rome 'This book clearly explains the principles of Lean Six Sigma and blends them with Information & Communication Technology, which is a ubiquitous enabler that plays a critical role in process innovation. The unification of Lean Six Sigma and ICT, with practical examples and case studies, is a great resource for those who wish to adopt the best of these domains.' Kiran Garimella, Senior Principal Consultant, Software AG
