What is Value?
The inherent worth of a product as judged by the customer and reflected in its selling price and market demand. For any product or service, customer typically values for: Quality, Price, Delivery, and Service etc.

Who defines the Value?
Value is always defined by customer.

Value in consumption and provision:

Consumption is also a process: A series of actions consumers must perform to obtain the value they seek.
Provision is also a process: The actions that providers must perform between the manufacturer and the customer to achieve the objectives of all three parties.

Today there is a gap between producers & customers that makes brilliant objects less satisfying in practice than in theory. We need to enter the age of lean thinking, seamlessly integrating provision and consumption.
What is Lean?
The core idea is to maximize customer value while minimizing waste. Simply, lean means creating more value for customers with fewer resources.
