Lean Accounting
  The purpose of Lean Accounting is to support the lean enterprise as a business strategy. It seeks to move from traditional accounting methods to a system that measures and motivates excellent business practices in the lean enterprise.  Applying Lean principles is part of this system.

The Vision for Lean Accounting
  1. Provide accurate, timely, and understandable information to motivate the lean transformation throughout the organization, and for decision-making leading to increased customer value, growth, profitability, and cash flow.
  2. Use lean tools to eliminate waste from the accounting processes while maintaining thorough financial control.
  3. Fully comply with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), external reporting regulations, and internal reporting requirements.
  4. Support the lean culture by motivating investment in people, providing information that is relevant and actionable, and empowering continuous improvement at every level of the organization.
