WHAT DOES KATA MEAN IN LEAN?
In lean management, kata refers to two linked behaviors: improvement kata and coaching kata. Improvement kata is a repeat four-step routine, by which an organization improves and adapts. This makes a continuous improvement through the scientific problem-solving method of plan, do, check, act (PDCA) a daily habit.

PROFIT APPLIED SYSTEMS CONSTANT FLOW
QPS System is a cloud based, current and future profit, an engineered specification, tailored to each unique pricing work statement. This is drilled down to every activity in the company, Lean Value-Add-Stream. It is a self-generating profit model AI and self-correcting profit scheduling MI. Standard GAAP P&L is not required to populate; chart of accounts driven. It measures and reports on current conditions. The future profit picture puzzle has the ability to assign an agreed to learning curve. This assures at the time of pricing, the bidding request for quotes at every activity. This is accomplished prior to acceptance of new commitments. This system has the ability for companies to conduct current Business to Business, B2B, share technical information with each company decision. This allows for real time negotiations responding to customers’ needs i.e. Boeing CATIA. It can provide an information system to reward all company stake holds. We identify this as CAPITAL FREE PROFIT, the center piece of the information data. The system is contained on one data stream and can monitor the entire supply chain. The system does not interfere with any existing company information. Especially your current financial standard GAAP reporting. QPS system is for internal reporting only. You continue to run your physical company under current operating conditions. There are no sales minus cost, top down extractive culture, and budgets developed on high. Budgets that don’t match current company performance. which create the largest disconnect and conflict in the company and causing distrust. Today’s businesses have two information systems. One around the current company data, and the other far older, your accounting system, which is in terrible shape, as it pertains to the current information generation. QPS’s Lean Profit System uses all three legs of the Lean stool: 
KATA; Culture (bottom up) Kaikaku; revolutionary (ingenuity) Kaizen; small incremental change related to ingenuity (real-actionable-time) How does it work; your Chart of Accounts populate the system: Profit Model AI ©™, Time-Driven Activity-Based Profit/Pricing. Profit Scheduling MI ©™, Schedules profit not production, the entire company including all stakeholders and departments. Tomorrow Today©™, Develops your companywide future profit picture puzzle, creating simulations as to what you look like in the future including an agreed to Learning Curve. Profit Assurance System©™, Assures the company can produce tomorrow’s work today prior to pricing, bidding request for quotes drilled down to every activity.

Theory of Constraint “TOC” Operationalized With Profit Replacing Inventory
FOUR MAIN ATTRIBUTES IN THE CLOUD PLATFORM
- Quality: Statistical Process Control (SPC) is embedded in Profit Scheduling. Quality is the largest cause for planned profit slippage. Number one reason customers reject your ability to do business with them. FYI, Six Sigma speed gets you there, quality keeps you there. QPS reverses this notion. Quality first then speed. Speed out of control is the largest cause of failure.
- Delivery: Faster on time deliveries, JIT. Lot one pursuit including profit ramifications related to JIT. Faster deliveries by planning slower and going faster (Rabbit & Hair). The highest risk and lowest return are speed.
- Profitability: Adequate, up to four times the profit potential. With the same total company assets requiring over three-and one-half times less sales than today’s top down sales minus cost, extractive culture.
- Reward: GainShare, companywide incentive plan to produce BETER WITH LESS. Allows both owner/operator and all employees to work together to improve company performance. A requirement in the 21st century information society, the current generation. Two words you should become familiar with precariat and rentier.
