LEAN

The principles the production system is built on

We don't use just one system of thinking — we combine the best of 3

01

Kaizen in Japanese characters (改善)

Kaizen

改善 — Continuous Improvement

A philosophy of small daily improvements at every workstation. Every employee — from operator to director — takes part in finding and eliminating losses.

02

Lean at the intersection of products, people, equipment and profit

Lean production

Lean Thinking

Production, personnel, and equipment generate profit through lower risks and costs. Every process is assessed: does it create value for the customer, or is it a loss.

03

Operational Excellence model: culture, tools, competency

Operational Excellence

Operational Excellence

Culture, tools, and competencies in a single wheel: Customer, Tools, Lean, Competency, People, Quality. Strategy turns into a measurable operational result.

TESTIMONIALS

“The Hattatsu Group team is one of the very few experts in the CIS who know the deep specifics, pain points, and technical nuances of the window market from the inside. Our years of joint experience developing large-scale consulting programs have confirmed the high practical value of their methods. I unconditionally recommend Hattatsu Group to all partners for systematic production optimization and the implementation of lean technologies.”

YES
Alexander Kitaev-Smyk

Founder and Head of the SHKOLA OKNA+ ecosystem

“Comprehensive consulting from Hattatsu Group introduced the strict standards of the Asian school of management at our plant and completely rebuilt our management culture. As a result, we doubled productivity — learning to deliver the former output of two shifts in just one — and reached stable annual operating profit growth of +20%. The Hattatsu Group team didn't just optimize the shop floor; it built world-class systematic managers inside the company.”

YES
Dmitry Panin

Founder and Head of AXAGLASS

“With the Hattatsu Group team we implemented the standards of the Asian school of management, which helped rebuild our internal processes: moving away from rigid manual control toward staff training and delegation. This dramatically relieved management from operational routine. The site received a working system that has been developing autonomously for five years since the project ended, maintaining high production efficiency.”

YES
Alexey Markus

Managing Director, Sibglass Novosibirsk

“In just one year of working with Hattatsu Group we created a unified digital ecosystem for managing the enterprise and increased overall production output by 10%. Implementing end-to-end planning and lean standards on the shop floor allowed us to optimize costs and reduce payroll while raising the earnings of key specialists by 30%. The team dove deep into our specifics, completely rebuilding our processes — from per-shift dashboards at the gemba to long-term business strategy.”

YES
Natalia Gryaznova

CEO of PZZS LLC (NFG brand)

“When we brought the Academy team in for manufacturing consulting with our key clients, we received in-depth technological analytics and a clear audit and diagnostics system. The Academy's experts quickly identify hidden losses, optimize the logistics of internal flows, and rebuild operational processes to meet lean manufacturing requirements. This approach made it possible to increase customer satisfaction, reduce complaints, and strengthen our clients' commercial resilience. We recommend the Academy as a strong technological and management partner for the comprehensive transformation of production facilities.”
