Value Stream Mapping PAUL KOBISHOP 30 years of experience improving processes Managed multi-plant manufacturing organizations in aerospace and medical device industries 15 years experience educating clients in effective Lean Enterprise methodologies Experience as production floor operator to directorships of manufacturing division operations Manage $15mm NPD projects Lean projects with direct improvements in operating costs on average of 15% ($1.5m) MBA in Operations Management, and Mechanical Engineering Accelerating Supply Chain Performance INTRODUCTION • • • • “Visually documenting the actions required to bring a product through the main flows essential to every product.” Includes design, flow of information and flow of work and materials Look at the big picture, not just individual processes “Learning To See” Accelerating Supply Chain Performance TYPES OF VALUE STREAMS •“Whenever there is a product (or service) for a customer, there is a value stream. •The challenge lies in seeing it.” • 3 enterprise value streams: –Raw Materials to Customer - Manufacturing –Concept to Launch - Engineering –Order to Cash - Administrative Functions Accelerating Supply Chain Performance A VALUE STREAM Information Supplier Production Control Information Inputs – Processes - Outputs Customer Materials Accelerating Supply Chain Performance CREATE THE CURRENT STATE Value stream mapping begins with a door to door product flow analysis. Physically walk through the pathways of material and information. Follow up with a detailed information gathering walk-through. • Begin at the end • Record fresh data. Bring a watch. • Document the entire flow as you walk through. Don’t try to remember later.

Accelerating Supply Chain Performance TRANSPORT Represents the movement of a unit of value in between processes. Accelerating Supply Chain Performance DELAY Represents the time during which there is no work being applied to the unit. A typical symptom of delay is “waiting for…” Accelerating Supply Chain Performance ANALYZE THE CURRENT STATE Use Tools of Kaizen To Reduce Variation & Create FLOW…….. 5s / Visual Workplace Kanban Pull TPM Suppliers Inputs – Processes - Outputs FLOW Customers Quick Change Over Leading Change Team Skills Hoshin Planning Standard Work Poke-Yoke Speed - Accuracy Accelerating Supply Chain Performance FUNCTIONAL COST-BASED ORGANIZATION WORK I WORK I WORK TIME = WEEKS THE VALUE STREAM Accelerating Supply Chain Performance I 7 TYPES OF NON-VALUE-ADDING ACTIVITIES Overproduction Motion Rework Inventory Waiting Transportation Waste of resources beyond what is needed to meet customer needs Overprocessing Accelerating Supply Chain Performance SEVEN COMMON WASTES Transportation Inventory Motion Alternate Terminology 8 Wastes - Adding “People’s Talents” as the eighth waste Waiting Over Processing Over Production Defects Accelerating Supply Chain Performance HOW CAN WASTE BE DETECTED? Process Flow or Value Stream Map If you cannot find the waste, look for activities that actually add value to the product; everything else is waste ELIMINATION OF WASTE: WHAT CAN YOU DO? 1 Overproduction 2 Waiting Transpor3 tation 4 Overprocessing • Reduce changeover times • Eliminate anticipatory production (producing in advance of customer demand) • Balance workload of equipment/people (e.g., by debottlenecking equipment) • Fill waiting time with other activities • Optimize interfaces with internal/external suppliers • Load once • Provide standards • Review current process design (e.g., value analysis) 5 Inventory • Define necessary inventory levels • Improve process reliability 6 Rework • Ensure proper sequence of work • Install mistake-proofing steps (quality control) 7 Motion • Arrange tooling/equipment • Design ergonomic workplace Accelerating Supply Chain Performance TAKT TIME • Rhythm or Beat • Time and Volume Relationship • H (S) / D • Sets maximum capacity of line • By Process! Accelerating Supply Chain Performance ROUGH CUT RESOURCE PLANNING Formula: STw / TAKT – STw = Ʃ(ST x D) ƩD – First pass resources only! – Calculate by process – Uses for Simulation Modeling Accelerating Supply Chain Performance KANBAN SIZING FORMULA Formula: (D x Q x R) / P – D = Rough Cut Volumes for end item – Q = Quantity Per at component level – R = Replenishment Time Allowed – P = Package Quantity (Default = 1) – Mixed Model = Σ(D x Q) Accelerating Supply Chain Performance OUR OBJECTIVE IS TO REDUCE WASTE …. ….and increase the percentage of value added, in order to reduce cost Waste Incidental activity Elements of work Valueadded activity Accelerating Supply Chain Performance FLOW PROCESSING ? ? ?

Accelerating Supply Chain Performance • Each Kaizen burst documented in the Current State VSM must be associated with a tool(s) • Make initial estimations of resource needs • Make initial estimations of benefits • Kaizen Event vs.. Quick & Easy Kaizen Accelerating Supply Chain Performance • Prepare a project plan for every event in a simple tabular form • Describe WHAT the opportunity is • Identify HOW it is going to be addressed, including the specific set of tools that apply • Specify WHO is going to be Project Leader • Indicate WHEN you expect this event to take place Accelerating Supply Chain Performance LET’S JUMP IN ?
