Operational Excellence When each and every employee can see the flow of value to the customer, and fix that flow before it breaks down. SM Kevin J. Duggan
The Eight Steps to Achieve Operational Excellence 1. Design a lean flow using lean guidelines. 2. Implement a lean flow. 3. Make the lean flow visual. 4. Create standard work for the lean flow. 5. Make abnormal flow visual. 6. Create standard work for the abnormal flow. 7. Teach employees to maintain and improve the flow to the customer. 8. Free management to work on offense.

Shared Resource Analysis 1. Can we extend the product families?
Can we Dedicate a Shared Resource? A few guidelines: Focus on active part numbers only Concentrate on the top 80% by volume Dedicate as much as possible Separate uptime and yield from run time identify factors

What is the Interval of the Shared EPEI = Every Part Every Interval Resource? How long it will take to produce all the part numbers within a process family Longest interval wins The smaller we can make the interval, the better the flow through the shared resource.
We would compare the total time needed to the available working time (PLT) per interval. Any leftover time can be used for changeovers. Time left for changeovers Uptime factor Total run time What is the Interval of the Shared Time Machine Available time Planned load threshold (85% - 95% of available time) Total time needed per interval Resource?

Process A FIFO First In First Out FIFO is a form of flow used to regulate two disconnected processes FIFO is similar to ping pong balls going through a pipe. They always come out in the same order, and the pipe is only so big. Once you fill it, that s it. Max = 4 FIFO Process B

Multiple FIFO Lanes Multiple FIFO Lanes is an ideal approach to create flow with shared resources! Provides more flexibility for managing flow with multiple families than a single lane. Great approach to managing flow into a shared resource from multiple inputs, including multiple pass items and rework loops. Key Questions How many? How big? How used? Mix Indicator Next job
