What is Lean Enterprise?

•Lean is a systematic approach to solving daily problems by reducing

or eliminating process waste (non-value-added activities)

•Non-value-added activities are best described as those tasks that add

cost or time to a process without adding value to the customer. Such

activities make up 70-95% of the average workday.

•Examples include reworking defective product, incomplete

information, waiting for materials, excessive motion, unnecessary

inventory, etc.

•Lean is a philosophy whose core goal is continuously minimizing

waste to maximize flow (it is an iterative activity)

Page 5: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

Lean Enterprise Approach* to Continual Improvement

1. Precisely specify the value of a specific process

2. Identify the value stream for each process

3. Allow value to flow without interruptions

4. Let the customer pull value from the process

5. Continuously pursue perfection

* Womack, J.P, and D.T. Jones, 1996, Lean Thinking, Simon & Schuster

Defining Value from Customer Perspective

Defining Value for Manufacturing

• Value is defined as tasks that contribute to producing the

customer desired attributes in purchased products

Value Added for Non-Manufacturing

• Value is defined as the tasks that contribute to complete,

accurate and timely delivery of customer requested services

• Timely Proposals

• Accurate Invoices

• On-time Development

5S as a Structure for Workplace Organization

A systematic method to

organize, order, clean,

and standardize a

workplace - and to

keep it that way.

1. Sort – Organization

2. Set – Orderliness

3. Shine – Cleanliness

4. Standardize – Procedures

5. Sustain – Discipline

• A work environment that is self-

explaining, self-ordering, self-

regulating and self-improving…

• Where what is supposed to

happen does happen, on time,

every time, day or night...

• No Wandering/ Searching

• No Waiting/ Delays

• No Secrets

• No Obstacles/ Detours

• No Extras

• No Injuries

• No Waste/ Red Ink

Page 16: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

16

First Pillar: SORT!

Remove all items from

the workplace that are

not needed for current

operations

“ When in Doubt, Move It Out ! ”

Page 17: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

17

Benefits of SORT

Reduced problems in work flow

Improved communications

Increased product quality

Enhanced productivity

More efficient workplace

What happens without SORT?

Quality defects

Extra inventory-related costs

More space is needed to store supplies

Additional equipment is necessary to transport supplies

The larger the amount of material, the harder it is to sort out

the needed materials from the unneeded materials !

Page 18: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

Steps to Implement Sort Phase of 5S

Implement a “Red Tag” Strategy

• Identifying potentially unneeded items in the factory

• Evaluating their usefulness

• Dealing with them appropriately

1. Launch the red-tag project

2. Identify the red-tag targets

3. Set red-tag criteria

4. Make red tags

5. Attach red tags

6. Evaluate red-tagged items

7. Document the results of red-tagging

Red Tags Ask:

• Is this item needed?

• If it is needed, is it needed

in this quantity?

• If it is needed, does it need

to be located here?

Page 21: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

21

The best way to carry out red-tagging

is to do the whole target area quickly,

if possible, in one to two days.

Page 22: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

22

The Second Pillar: Set In Order!

Arrange needed items so that they are easy to use

Label items so that they are easy to find and put away

Determine how many of each item will be stored in each location

Make it easy for anyone to find, use and return items

“A Place for Everything and Everything in Its Place !”

Page 23: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

23

Problems Avoided by Implementing Set In Order

Motion (Searching) Waste: A person issent to get an item but cannot find it

Waste of Human Energy: A frustrated employee gives up on finding a needed template after looking in vain for half an hour

The Waste of Defective Products: The storage locations of two types of parts are switched without telling the operator, so he picked up the wrong part without noticing it and uses it in the product

Waste of Excess Inventory: Desk drawers are crammed full of pencils, markers, and other stationary supplies

Waste of Unsafe Conditions: Boxes of supplies are left along a walkway, causing someone to trip and get injured

Page 24: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

24

Tools Kept Close at Hand and Stored in the Order of Use

Example: Implementing Set In Order

Page 25: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

25

Steps to Implement Sort Phase of 5S

Implement a Workplace Organization Strategy

• Determine layout and locations based on need

• Implement visual workplace principles

1. Study current layout & identify opportunities

2. Evaluate equipment & determine ideal locations

3. Implement layout and location changes

4. Implement visual workplace standards

Page 26: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

Pull Production with Visual Management

• Pull Production is about making what is needed “make to

order” as opposed to what is available “make to stock”

• Kanbans are simple, visual “signals” that are used to

control production to increase flow and reduce inventory

Page 32: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

The Third Pillar: Shine!

Keep everything in top condition so that when someone needs to use something, it’s ready

Clean to inspect

Inspect to detect

Detect to correct

Correct to prevent

“ Cleaning with Meaning! ”

Page 36: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

36

Implementing Shine avoids…

Poor morale & inefficient work

Hiding defective product & equipment

Safety hazards & injuries

• Plant Examples:

• Overlooked defects in dark, messy plants

• Slipping in puddles of oil and water

• Eye injuries from paper shavings

• Insufficient machine check-up maintenance

• Defects resulting from paper dust that gets processed during production/assembly

• Office Examples:

• Equipment does not receive sufficient check-up maintenance and tends to break down frequently (usually just when you need it most)

• Poor customer perception of our capability

The Fourth Pillar: Standardize

“If it doesn’t get dirty then it doesn’t need cleaned”

Maintain first 3 pillars:

• SORT

• SET IN ORDER

• SHINE

Prevent setbacks in the

first pillars

Make 5S standards a

daily habit

Page 40: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

40

Problems Avoided

• Conditions go back to normal after 5S campaign

• Production areas unorganized and dirty

• Tooling and Materials must be replaced at the end of the day

“Make the first 3S’s a daily habit, to ensure they are maintained to their fullest”

Page 41: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

41

Standardize Steps

1. Assign RESPONSIBILITY and ACCOUNTABILITY for each activity of maintaining 5S conditions:

• Keeping Areas Sorted

• Maintain Workplace Organization

• Routine Cleaning & Maintenance

2. INTEGRATE 5S duties into regular work activities to prevent backsliding

• Make them part of the normal workflow

• Incorporate into standard operating procedures

• Set time aside for cleaning & maintenance (5-minute blitz)

Page 42: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

42

Assign Responsibility and Accountability

Typical Standardize Responsibilities:

• Build daily, weekly, and monthly 5S activities.

• Build and maintain a training matrix, ensure all plant employees have an

understanding AND appreciation of the importance of 5S.

• Conduct audits and hold people accountable for actions towards 5S.

Acknowledge successes and promote ideas for improvement.

• Complete Preventive measures to reduce contamination resulting in dirty

conditions.

• Meet regularly and continue enthusiasm for 5S.

• Build and maintain reasonable budgets for staffing, materials, and time to

work on 5S initiative support.

5S is supported by everyone, it is a TOTAL TEAM EFFORT

Page 43: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

43

Integrate 5S into Regular Work Duties

• Visual 5S

• Make the level of 5S conditions obvious at a glance

• Particularly helpful in areas with a great variety of materials

• 5S Maintenance Department

• Shadow board sign off at start and end of shift

• Clean up after reactive maintenance

• Completion of prevention work orders

• 5S Production

• Complete 5S activities during downtimes

• End of shift sign off

• Support of Autonomous Maintenance

Page 44: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

44

The Fifth Pillar: Sustain

“Sustain the Gains!”

Make a habit out of

properly maintaining

correct procedures

Integrate these

procedures into daily

routines

Page 45: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

45

The Fifth “S” Sustain

“The rewards for implementing and maintaining the first 4’s must be greater for each individual than the rewards for not implementing them”

Lower Cost

Higher Quality

Higher Customer Satisfaction

Safer and more Ergonomic working conditions

“A productive, high performance working environment”

Page 46: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

46

Implementing Sustain

• Get everyone involved.

• Periodic senior management involvement is absolutely required!

• Integrate 5S + 1 principles into daily work requirements.

• Communicate need for 5S + 1, roles of all participants, how it is implemented.

• Be consistent in following 5S + 1 principles in all areas (office/factory).

• Follow through – 5S + 1 takes effort and persistence.

• Link 5S + 1 activities with all other kaizen initiatives.

• Reward and Recognition

“Leadership is the Key – Lead by Example”

Page 47: Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow...1 Today’s Speaker Carl Lefever, Principal Consultant at Improve & Grow •Certified Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt •Personally

47

Role of Leadership in 5S

4Educating leaders & associates about 5S concepts, tools, and techniques

4Creating teams for implementation

4Allowing time for implementation and creating schedules for this work

4Providing resources for 5S implementation, i.e. supplies

4Acknowledging and supporting 5S efforts

4Encouraging creative involvement by all associates, listening to their ideas, and acting on them

4Creating both tangible and intangible rewards for 5S efforts

4Promoting ongoing 5S efforts

When supervisors and managers sustain the first four pillars, they are:

• Improving the quality/efficiency of their own work

• Teaching by example

• Demonstrating the division’s commitment to 5S implementation

Current layout of the Client Services department (which includes Imaged

Programming, Scheduling, and Project Coordination) is cluttered with

obsolete equipment, work spaces and traffic patterns - creating an

inefficient workflow and non-productive work environment. Baseline

measurement of 44, based on team average results from first "5S Audit

Checklist“.

Project Objective

To physically and electronically improve the Image Programming, Project

Coordinator, and Scheduling work flow through utilization of 5S tools.

Track major issues identified with the audit and the results of the

improvements. Help improve cycle time for both order entry &

programming. Goal is to achieve and maintain between 121 to 140 Audit

level, after completion of 5S event.

Customer Service 5S Workshop Charter

Pre Workshop 5S AuditAs referenced in the charter, the project

team conducted an audit of the area,

using a pre-defined checklist. The

baseline 5S Audit score was 44 out of a

possible 140.

Specific areas noted included:

•Extra tables, cabinets and other unneeded

items hanging in common & personal areas

•Forms bins overstocked/under used

•Aisles often have items in the path; aisle

widths are not consistent

•Lots of clutter around workstations,

unorganized BB, extra chair, water bottles,

extra/unused printer

•Many supply cabinets/drawers, most

locations not labeled

•Dirt and markings on many desks

(especially sides of desks), carpets,

partitions; walls need painted

•Mail trays on floor blocking cubicle entry.

•Standards undefined/unclear
