Kanban’s Lean method consists in applying optimizations to the production apparatus, in all areas including business travel.
Around 9 out of 10 companies can benefit from these cost reductions.

| Lean methods | Application |
|---|---|
| Having a clear vision to track & follow the global travel budget : Usually, the travel budget is segmented by departments and built upon the previous year expenses. But never centralized to be coordinated and optimized via possible flow synergies. | Usually practiced |

| Optimizing trips, in particular by the elimination of useless journeys | new |
| Pooling resources to remove redundant costs, like taxis | new |
