This microguide offers a hands-on blueprint for launching a Lean transformation in apparel manufacturing through a structured awareness campaign. Focused on creating momentum and engagement, it outlines a step-by-step activation strategy across productivity, quality, and management support pillars.

Designed for immediate application, the guide provides a time-bound schedule and ready-to-use tools including:

• 5S workplace organization,
• Standardized work,
• Team-based systems and balancing,
• Quality at the source, and
• Total Productive Maintenance (TPM).
  

Practical activities—like manager walkarounds, posters, rewards, real-life demonstrations, and a factory mascot ("Mister Lean")—bring Lean concepts to life on the shop floor. The campaign concludes with a wrap-up and cross-team sharing to identify new change leaders and sustain engagement through team games, social activities, and continuous feedback.

A built-in 360° survey helps assess engagement levels across employee satisfaction, benefits, management support, and team effectiveness—ensuring alignment with worker realities.
