Processes and operations Process flow and cell design Process standardization Overview of quick changeovers
3
Value Stream Mapping How many are familiar with value stream mapping?
What value do you think mapping can provide your organization?
4
Value Stream Mapping What is a value stream?
A value stream is all the actions (both value added and non-value added) currently required to bring a product through the main flows essential to every product
5
Value Stream Mapping Two main flows
(1) The production flow from raw material to the customer (2) The design flow from concept to launch We are concentrating on the production flow
6
Value Stream Mapping Production flow - all the relevant actions consist of two flows Orders traveling upstream from the customer Products coming downstream from raw materials to the customer Together these constitute a closed circuit of demand and response in the information flow and the material flow
7
Value Stream Mapping It is the simple process of directly observing the flows of information and materials as they occur, summarizing them visually, and then envisioning a future state with a much better performance.
8
Value Stream Mapping Levels of mapping Process Single plant
Multiple plant Across companies
9
Value Stream Mapping Looking at the whole value stream Cost cutting
Most managers look at one place or one point Their machine Their department Their plant Their firm
10
Value Stream Mapping Traditional measures High labor utilization
High machine utilization Focusing on their assets Focusing on their organization
11
Value Stream Mapping What about?
Performance of the entire value stream 9 out of 10 steps are a waste 99% of elapsed time is a waste
12
Value Stream Mapping Extended value stream maps
Can be used to raise the consciousness in every firm and function of the effect of its actions on every other firm and function touching the value stream Guide groups of managers across many departments and firms toward similar results
13
Value Stream Mapping Creating the value stream maps
Walk along the value stream Look for Which steps create value? Which steps are waste? Why is order flow so erratic? Why is quality so erratic? How can value be enhanced for the end-customer?
14
Value Stream Mapping Creating the value stream maps
Identify all the physical actions required Identify information actions currently required to manage the value stream
15
Value Stream Mapping You want a manufacturing approach that enables companies to make What customers want When they want it In the variety they want In the amount they want Keeps cost low, quality high and lead time minimal by eliminating waste
16
The Seven Wastes How do you identify opportunities?
By recognizing waste and eliminating it What is waste? Waste is any element that adds cost without adding value to the product
17
The Seven Wastes Overproduction Excessive inventory
Unnecessary conveyance Over processing Excessive motion Waiting Corrections
18
The Seven Wastes Overproduction and excessive inventory are waste
Overproduction creates excess inventory Inventory hides production problems Inventory leads to transport, storage, damage and delay What are some other ways you can think of that overproduction causes waste?
19
The Seven Wastes Extra inventory hides Production imbalances
Late deliveries from suppliers Defects Equipment downtime Long setup times
20
The Seven Wastes Unnecessary conveyance
What do you do with items not used immediately?
21
The Seven Wastes Unnecessary conveyance Move them Store them
Pick it up, put it down Damage Delay
22
The Seven Wastes Over processing
Doing more work than is required by the customer Give us some examples of where you might be over processing
23
The Seven Wastes Excessive motion Reaching Bending Lifting Turning
Carrying
24
The Seven Wastes Waiting
What types of things might you be waiting for at your operations that causes delays?
25
The Seven Wastes Corrections Rework Redo Retype Do-overs

The Five Ss
28
The Five Ss Sort: Remove everything from the workplace that is not needed for current production C:\Documents and Settings\Michael\My Documents\desktop_master\capsys_lean\capsys6_23_05v2 C:\Documents and Settings\Michael\Desktop\desktop8_05\capsys lean\lean production workshop
29
The Five Ss Set in Order: Arrange items so they are easy to find and return and locate items to minimize motion waste
30
The Five Ss Shine: Keep everything clean and in top condition, so that it is ready to be used
31
The Five Ss Standardize: Ongoing maintenance of Sort, Set in Order and Shine
32
The Five Ss Sustain: Create the conditions or structures that will help sustain commitment
33
Processes and Operations
Quality process Focuses on meeting requirements and on minimizing warranty costs Cost process Seeks to remove excess cost or waste in an organization Delivery process Manages the elements of time and quantity in sourcing materials, producing and getting product and service to the customer as required Innovation Maximizes an organization’s success rate
34
Processes and Operations
A continuous flow in which raw materials are converted to finished products Operations Any action performed by workers or machines on materials, WIP, or finished products
35
Processes and Operations
Storage of raw materials or components Transport Transformation Storage waiting for a process Inspection
36
Processes and Operations
Essential operations The actual value-adding Other operations Set-up, transport, inspection
37
Processes and Operations
In a lean enterprise Value stream maps help to focus an organization on their processes to promote optimization of the whole company’s performance by aligning interests across the company
38
Processes and Operations
In a lean enterprise Process-focused strategies unleash new levels of productivity
39
Process Flow and Cell Design
There are a lot of wastes in an operation based layout Conveyance - using equipment and people Badly used space Lot delays test Source: Productivity Press
40
Process Flow and Cell Design
Wastes in an operation based layout Source: Productivity Press
41
Process Flow and Cell Design
Benefits of a process flow layout Positioning equipment in the process sequence for a smooth flow Minimal inventory and delays Source: Productivity Press
42
Process Flow and Cell Design
Multi-machine operation One person runs several machines in process sequence Source: Productivity Press
43
Process Flow and Cell Design
U-shaped cells A process flow layout with the end point near the beginning point. Minimizes walking Source: Productivity Press
44
Process Flow and Cell Design
Small flexible machines Process small amounts Save space Reduce walking Easy set-up Can be moved easily Less expensive Don’t need high speed
45
Process Standardization
Establishes predictability Three elements Standard cycle time Standard work sequence Standard in-process inventory Source: Productivity Press
46
Process Standardization
Standard cycle time The actual time required to process one part Determines whether a process is capable of producing the required quantity at the required time.
47
Process Standardization
Standard work sequence and in-process inventory A consistent set of operations and actions A consistent quantity of materials and WIP in the process
48
Process Standardization
The foundation for continuous improvement Not “carved in stone” – it is a living standard Standardization is the first step in improvement
49
Quick Changeovers Why would quick changeovers be important?
Where could you use quicker changeovers? Discuss pit stops and review video
50
Quick Changeovers Separate internal setup from external setup
Convert internal setup to external setup Streamline all aspects of setup Source: Productivity Press
