16. 16 Benefits  Quick, visual way to identify what needs to be ordered  Responsibility falls in one individual’s hands  With correct buffer and safety stocks, weld sticks will never run out  Reduced number of weld sticks on hand  Eliminate need for expedited orders  Less time and resources needed to maintain the system

17. Kaizen 2- Reduction of Consignment Inventory 17

18. 18 Needs  Reduce consignment footprint to make use of the space in alternative ways Determine part usage Eliminate parts and empty shelves

19. 19 Usage Data Last 18 Months 83 different parts 770 units of parts

21. Consignment Checkout 21

22. 22 Consignment Checkout Current State Process

23. 23 Costs ItemTotal Wireless Barcode Scanner$500 - $1500 Total$500 - $1500 Barriers BarrierContingency Additional software might be neededDevelop or purchase software necessary Workers may still not check out partsControlled gate access or stricter policies Positives  Automated ordering No need to manually input information Information sent directly to supplier and Wendy  Shorter lead time (Real-time update)  Less time and effort to check out  Better part availability  Robust technology  Easy implementation Negatives  Repair/Maintenance of infrastructure  Training  Database Manager Product Process: Barcode ScannerLocation: Consignment Owner: RIT TeamDate: April 2009 Process Flow

24. 24 Costs ItemTotal Scratch-Off Lottery Ticket$1/Day Total$260/Year Risks RiskContingency Workers will want lottery tickets for other process they are expected/paid to do Workers will be verbally positively reinforced by management when they are seen following procedures. Workers will fill out multiple cards when only one needs to be If it is determined that this is occurring, the person(s) will not be allowed to win for X days/weeks. Only pipe fitters will be receiving lottery tickets Put reward on other systems to benefit welders, test, etc. Performance Management Process Product Process: Consignment Check OutLocation: Piping and Packaging Owner: Dave Thompson & RIT TeamDate: April 2009 Positives  Improves conformity of workers to the consignment check out process.  Yellow cards filled out more frequently/correctly will improve:  Visibility of inventory  Assurance that customer’s parts are going to the proper skids  Workers will gain a feeling that their work is being noticed and appreciated.  It is a low cost solution to help combat a high cost problem. Negatives  Not 100% accurate  Consignment data must be recorded twice  Slow process

25. 25 Product Process: Consignment CheckoutLocation: Piping and Packaging Owner: Dave Thompson and RIT teamDate: April 2009 Material Handler Process 1.Walk loop and collect consignment orders at the same time, d elivers consignment parts to workers, and deliver parts between welders and pipe fitters 2.Tracks consignment levels as parts leave the consignment area Costs ItemTotal 1 Worker’s Salary$15 / hour Kanban Post$1000 Total Barriers BarrierContingency Potentially a bottleneck Conduct up front study to evaluate conveyance time Positives  Helps prevent missing parts by having a single worker responsible for checking out parts  Eliminates welder and pipe fitter downtime associated with travel  Real time data tracking eliminates the lag between running out of parts and placing the order for more  Creates a proactive approach to ordering necessary parts Negatives  Additional personnel  Additional information flow (request for parts made)

26. 26 Case Hydrostatic Testing Area Design

27. 27 Case Hydro – System Needs  Primary Needs Incorporate HAZOP recommendations to improve safety Improve control layout Improve Standard Operating Procedure Documentation  Analysis: Reviewed the current procedural documentation and made suggestions about possible improvements Developed several concepts that implement safety components into two mechanical systems involved in case testing: Hydro and Air Compared and weighted the concepts to determine an ideal design for the given application

28. 28 Hydro System Concepts Concept #1 Concept #3 Concept #2

29. 29 Air System Concepts Concept #1 Concept #2

30. 30 Concept Assessment  To compare the different concepts, a Pugh assessment was completed  Hydro Concept #1 proved to be the ideal solution for the hydro system  Air Concept #2 proved to be the ideal solution for the air system Hydro Pugh Assessment Air Pugh Assessment

34. Objective Project Evaluation  Design Strengths Successfully moved 9 welders out from under a 250 ton overhead crane Designed new safety cage for the Hydrostatic Testing table Improved final packaging capacity by 33%  Design Weaknesses The original intent was to develop lean improvements at little or no cost The full extent and the results of the changes to be implemented can not yet be proven  Potential Future Projects Analysis of the advantages/disadvantages of having a dedicated conveyance operator in the Consignment cage Development of a barcode or other tracking system for parts in Consignment Further consignment inventory reduction and thorough analysis of part re-order points 34
