The section goes on to give an overview of change management and how it works. Section II delves into the details of how Lean can be utilized to eliminate waste in IT. It discusses the cultural acceptance tools that are required to build acceptance for Lean in IT, the technical tools that are available to generate the desired improvements, how these technical tools are used to identify non-value-added opportunities for improvement, the improvement process, and the operational details behind running a Lean event. This section also explores the process of developing meaningful information metrics. Section III recommends a methodology for assessing an organization?s IT maturity. This section focuses on the next generation of Lean and its application to IT, and it ends by discussing how Lean can drive the success of IT environments of the future.
