Eliminate the 7 Wastes to Save Engineering Projects

The objective of this Engineering Talks episode is to help engineers, project managers, and industry professionals understand how hidden inefficiencies—known as the 7 Wastes—silently increase project costs, delay timelines, and reduce productivity. Through real industry examples and expert insights, this session aims to equip participants with practical strategies to identify, eliminate, and prevent waste across engineering, procurement, execution, and operations.

Guest: Mr. Dinesh Mahajan – HOD Operations, Connectwell Industries Pvt. Ltd.

In this power-packed live session, we will break down the real meaning of “waste” in industrial and engineering environments and explore how the 7 (or 7+1) wastes impact project cost, delivery, and profitability. The discussion will cover real case examples, early warning signs of inefficient processes, leadership roles in waste elimination, and practical tools engineers can apply immediately. Whether you’re a junior engineer or senior leader, this episode will help you build a lean mindset and unlock operational excellence in projects.
