Lean Bronze

Answer: D - Collaboration within the organization helps to achieve lean because it extends outside the organization to suppliers, competitors, and contractors. This builds partnerships with a combined effort. Holding a Kaizen event for corrugated press operators is an example of a lean tool designed for automatic collaboration. Tools such as A3 forms and Nema was hi (a form of consensus building) are also used because they require the team to work collaboratively for a solution.
