Most lean consultants focus on the production line. OMEP goes further — we help Oregon manufacturers build sustainable lean systems across operations, leadership, and office workflows so improvements actually stick.
Streamline production processes, reduce waste, and build a culture of continuous improvement.
Identify inefficiencies and align your teams with a clear roadmap for operational success.
Apply lean principles to administrative workflows for better efficiency and communication.
Equip managers to lead daily improvement and drive team-wide accountability.
"OMEP's lean consultants came to our floor, mapped our processes, and helped us double our usable production space without expanding the building."
"We saw a 4x increase in production capacity after working with OMEP on our lean layout redesign. They didn't just hand us a report — they worked alongside our team every step of the way. The results speak for themselves."
OMEP is Oregon's official Manufacturing Extension Partnership, part of the NIST MEP National Network. Our mission is to help Oregon manufacturers grow, not to sell you a program. Our lean consultants have worked on factory floors across the state, and our results are verified by the federal government. When you book a 30-minute consultation, you talk to a real expert, not a sales rep.
