Overview & Scope


Lean Manufacturing is a generic process management philosophy derived mostly from the Toyota Production System (TPS) but also from other sources. It is renowned for its focus on reduction of Seven Wastes' in order to improve overall customer value. * Toyota's achievement made "Lean" a hot topic in management science in the first decade of the 21st century. Lean Manufacturing can be defined as: "A systematic approach to identifying and eliminating waste (non-value-added activities) through continuous improvement by flowing the product at the pull of the customer in pursuit of perfection."

What Executives (Really) Need to Know


98% of Organisations that engage with Lean, Fail!! WHY??? Lean is HARD!!!

Lean Thinking
Its a people issue. Thats why its so hard. Getting people to change to do things differently than they have done them is really, really hard.
Art Byrne, CEO Wiremold

If a company is really maniacal about Lean it takes two to three years to go from kindergarten to first grade. Thats how tough it is.

The Origins of Lean Manufacturing


Lean Manufacturing has its root in the Toyota Production System (TPS). Several individuals at Toyota were instrumental in developing and systematizing TPS. Among the most important were: Sakichi Toyoda (1867~1930) Japans King of Inventors. His concept of Jidoka (autonomation) is one of the foundational principles of TPS. First applied toToyoda Power Loom equipped with a new weft-breakage automatic stopping device (developed in 1896). World's first automatic loom with a non-stop shuttle-change motion, the Type-G Toyoda Automatic Loom (developed in 1924). Founded Toyota Motor Co. in 1937.

The Origins of Lean Manufacturing


Kiichiro Toyoda (1894~1952) Sakichis son. The TPS has evolved through may years of trial and error to improve efficiency based on the JustinTime (JIT) concepts developed by Kiichiro Toyoda, the founder (and second president) of Toyota Motor Corporation. Inherited Sakichi Toyoda philosophy, set out to realize his belief that the ideal conditions for making things are created when machine, facilities and people work together to add value without generating any waste. Conceived methodologies and techniques for eliminating waste between operations, between lines, between processes. The result was the so called JIT method. Drawing on his experience of introducing a flow production method using a chain conveyor into the assembly line of a textile plant (completed in 1927) with a monthly production capacity of 300 units. Introduced this method into the body production line at Toyota Motor Co., Ltd.'s Koromo Plant (present day Honsha Plant), completed in 1938. He studied Fords production system and adapted it to the smaller, more diverse Japanese market.

The Origins of Lean Manufacturing


Eiji Toyoda (1913 ~) By ensuring thorough implementation of Jidoka and the Just-in-Time method, Eiji Toyoda increased workers' productivity in adding value and realized the Toyota Production System, which enabled Toyota to compete head-on with companies in Europe and the U.S.
For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eiji_Toyoda

Taiichi Ohno (1912~1990) With strong backing from Eiji Toyoda, Taiichi Ohno helped establish the Toyota Production System, and built the foundation for the Toyota spirit of "making things" by, for example, creating the basic framework for the Just-inTime method. Known as the Architect of TPS. Systematized Jidoka, JIT, standardized work and kaizen into what we now know as TPS. Father of the supermarket system of inventory control.

The Origins of Lean Manufacturing


Dr. Shigeo Shingo (1909~1990) In 1930, after graduation from Yamanashi Technical College, he went to work for the Taipei Railway Company. In 1943, he was transferred to the Amano Manufacturing Plant in Yokohama. In 1945 and 1946 and also began a long association with the Japanese Management Association (JMA). In 1955, he began another long association, this time with Toyota. In addition to his many consulting assignments in other industries. It is during this period that he first started work on setups by doubling the output of an engine bed planer at Mitsubishi's shipyard. In 1959, he left JMA to start his own consulting company. During the early 1960's, as an outgrowth of work with Matsushita, he developed his concepts of "Mistake-Proofing (PokaYoke). In 1969, SMED was originated when he cut the setup time on a 1000 ton press at Toyota from 4.0 hours to 3.0 minutes. During the 1970's, he traveled in Europe and North America on many lectures, visits and assignments. He began to see Toyota's efforts as an integrated system and began to assist several U.S. and European firms in implementation.

The Origins of Lean Manufacturing


By practicing the philosophies of daily improvements" and good thinking, good products" the TPS has evolved into a world-renowned production system. Furthermore, all Toyota production divisions are making improvements to the TPS day and night to ensure its continued evolution. At least as important as the tools that these founders discovered, was the realization by top Toyota management that for the system to work, workers must be continuously trained, motivated, and properly supported at all times.

All items can be easily retrieved by anyone; they are clearly marked. Standardized item quantities are established; Shadow boards are utilized. Needed items have dedicated locations which are clearly labeled. Needed items have been safely stored and organized. Items are placed randomly throughout the work place.

Sort
Anything not required for immediate production is removed from the line. Non-utilized cabinets, benches, tables, etc. identified and removed from area. Unneeded materials removed from plant; not stored away. Needed and unneeded materials have been identified and separated. Needed and unneeded materials are mixed throughout the work area.

Sweep
Immediate actions taken against abnormalities; Shop kept orderly on a continuous basis. Daily cleanliness inspection of equipment, tools and supplies. Visual controls established and well marked for work area. Area team leaders identified and responsibilities documented. Work areas unkept; No visual controls in place.

Keys to 5Ss Success


Get everyone involved. Integrate 5S Principles into daily work requirements. Communicate need for 5S, roles of all participants, how it is implemented. Be consistent in following 5S Principles in all areas Business Team Leader involvement is a must! Follow through -finish what is started - 5S takes effort and persistence. Link 5S activity with all other Action Workout initiatives.

The Foundation

The 5S is the foundation for Flextronics Lean Enterprise. In order to visually detect any abnormal condition, we need to establish Visual Management & Standards.

GBE-KPO-2-001-00 Lean Basics 1 Rev.04

48

5Ss Leadership Responsibility


Management at all levels must be committed to establishing and maintaining the 5S process. Before people leave work for the day, everyone must ensure that the cell meets 5S principles. The use of checklist for monitoring adherence, quantifying results of cell inspections and prominent display of each areas results are tools which management can use to help sustain the process. Management must lead by example. Walk the Talk!

Right Size of Inventory Utilize the Inventory Tracking Sheet (refer page 68) Calculate right size of Inventory Ideal Inventory (Min-Max / RoP) Isolate and Visualize excess inventory 4.

How to Track Supermarket Implementation?


1. Height Requirements: Rack height is limited to human height or reachable with eliminated motion climbing, searching and sorting 2. Address: Location, Part Number, ROP (Min/Max) 3. FIFO: Demonstrate an auto gravity pull gradient design FIFO mechanism 4. Pull Material: Shop floor providing Sequential pull systems. Supermarket issuing only what is requested to replenish Production Material usage 5. Visual Management: Enable material order personal react to inventory level 6. No Waiting Transaction: All activities between raw material receiving and build on board have been evaluated; eliminate non-value-creating waste such as waiting 7. Return Flow: Material return to supermarket flow as pre-define processes, Excess material return to warehouse is under standard work control. An Integrated flow to abolish overprocess of re-verification/inspection, waiting along the returning process 8. Water Strider: Identify a group of operators work as Water Strider. Separated the job function from normal assembly line operator 9. Work Standard and Combination Sheet: Define the work instructions and work route for all Water-Strider 10. 5 No's - No thinking, No searching, No counting, No checking, No waiting
