    Six Sigma in Action Local Asset Inventory Cycle Time


    Customer Profile 18,000-Seat Aircraft Engines Manufacturing and Service Company Business Problem & Impact
    Madisonville does not have an easy way to track inventory. Thus when information is needed, someone must physically establish equipment location.
    Process Capability Before
    USL = 60 seconds

    Mean = 96.5
    StDev = 54.6 Z_ST = 0.8

    Measure & Analyze


    Data Collection: Validated repeatability and reproducibility using A stop watch. Collected 200 data points to see how long it takes to inventory equipment. Root Causes/Sources of Variation: Human error with the manual recording of data.

    Improve & Control


    Simulated pilots tests were run for each scanner type and repeated by two technicians to evaluate the best cycle time and functionality. Improved the accuracy with scanned asset details with the removal of manually recording multiple entries.

    Process Capability After


    USL = 60 sec Mean = 29.5 StDev = 11.2 Z_ST = 4.3

    Results/Benefits
    Digitized technology decreased cycle time to < 1 minute Benchmarked scanner cycle times, Improving process from 96.5 to 29.5 seconds, to meet customer CTQ <= 60 seconds!

    A Total Savings of US $2,240
