2. Lean Means Eliminating WasteLean Means Eliminating Waste  Ohno – Reduce customer order to cash collection by removing non-value added wastes  One Time vs. Systematic Continuous  3 Keys to Complete Success  Focus on understanding concepts (principles)  Unwavering acceptance of all aspects of lean  Implementation plans: systematic, cyclical, continuous

3. 7 Wastes Plus 17 Wastes Plus 1 1.Overproduction 2.Waiting 3.Transportation or conveyance 4.Over processing 5.Excess inventory 6.Unnecessary movement 7.Defects 8.Unused employee creativity

4. Building a Lasting Learning OrganizationBuilding a Lasting Learning Organization  Develop skilled leadership at all levels  Standardized plans for reacting to issues  Methods to create and sustain process stability  Standardized work  Etc.

5. Value Stream MappingValue Stream Mapping  Not just how, but why!!  Future State Map is the key  Requires assistance from experienced lean leader  Not as simple as it looks  VSM is an ‘action’ plan  Move from ‘isolated point kaizen’ to ‘true system based flow’

6. Future State ObjectivesFuture State Objectives  Flexibility  Short lead-time  Connected processes  Flow loops  Simplified information flow  Awareness of the customer requirement  Pacesetter

9. 9 Value Stream Mapping

10. 10 Whenever there is a product for a customer, there is a value stream. The challenge lies in seeing it (from Learning to See)

11. 11 Outlook  Introduction to Value-Stream Mapping  The Current-State Map  Future lessons:  What Makes a Value Stream Lean  The Future-State Map  Achieving the Future State Map

12. 12 Getting StartedGetting Started  What is Value-Stream Mapping?  Material and Information Flow  Selecting a Product Family  The Value-Stream Manager  Using the Mapping Tool

13. 13 What is Value-Stream MappingWhat is Value-Stream Mapping  Value stream: Actions required to bring a product through the main flows essential to every product:  Production flow from raw material to customer delivery  Design flow from concept to launch  Different levels of value-stream mapping

14. 14 Levels of MappingLevels of Mapping

16. 16 Why Value Stream Mapping?Why Value Stream Mapping?  Visualizes current flow  Shows waste  Communication tool  Provides basis for improvement  Shows linkage between information and material flow  Ultimate goal: Reduce lead time

17. 17 Who is Responsible?Who is Responsible?  VSM crosses organizational boundaries  Need one person with lead responsibility for product family’s value stream  High level executive (often plant manager) or value- stream manager

26. 26 Mapping TipsMapping Tips  Always collect current-state information while walking along the actual pathways of material and information flows yourself  Begin with quick walk along the entire door-to- door value stream  Begin at shipping and work upstream  Bring your stopwatch and do not rely on standard times or information that you do not personally obtain  Map the whole value stream yourself  Always draw by hand in pencil

27. 27 Draw by Hand in PencilDraw by Hand in Pencil  No delay  You can do it yourself  Focus on understanding flow  Keep eraser handy
