To bring out the operational excellence, the company that I work for, namely, Color Jewels, has adapted Lean Operations realizing how much it is beneficial for company in terms of generating revenue and maximizing the profit. The basic principle of lean operation is to reduce weight by keeping demand and supply in balance. Lean operations believe in the following principles:

1. Optimizing the entire process
2. Eliminating the waste
3. Increase in quality
4. Delivering quick

Being a diamonds company, it is very important for Color Jewels to optimize the level of inventory. That is because the price of the diamonds is very expensive and it is going to take astronomical amount of capital for the company in order to maintain inventory where the supply is greater than the demand. It has optimized the entire process where it has cut the redundant process In order to bring efficiency in the regular process. Likewise, it has eliminated the waste by keeping demand and supply in Balance so that no inventory is going to be wasted. The company also performs business overseas, hence it is very important that it should increase the delivery time.
For example, recently the company realized that a type of diamond, namely, VS1 diamond, has seen the decline in its demand due to its increasing price. The company has decided to halt its order and storage because it would be a waste in the future if it does not do so. This is one example based on the principle of the Lean Operations.
