Customer work instructionsPurpose• As the customer, you will place an order every minute for 15 minutes.• You expect “on time” delivery (note 1 below) and 100% quality (note 2).

Materials• A stopwatch to time the orders & delivery.• 2 large dice to roll for orders + 6 coloured dots and 6 white dots (refer notes 4 & 5).• Customer order log sheet to record the orders, delivery times and any quality issues.

ProceduresOrders1. Announce the start of the round.2. Roll the 2 dice to determine the order (note 3 & 4)3. Tell the Production Controller the order4. Record the time, type & quantity on the “Order log sheet”5. Repeat steps 2-4 exactly one minute apart until the round is complete one minute after the 15th order.6. Announce the end of the round.Deliveries1. When a delivery is received, check for the correct delivery (note 1) and quality (note 2). If all is correct,

record the time of delivery and calculate the lead time. If the delivery or quality is not correct, reject the whole delivery and record reasons on the “Order log sheet”.

2. For repeat delivery or quality problems, express your displeasure to the Production Control person. If this does not work, elevate your concerns to the Plant Manager.

Notes1. A delivery with the correct product type and quantity received within a minute of placing the order is

considered “on time”. Deliveries must be received in the sequence in which they were ordered. Deliveries received out of sequence are to be rejected.

2. Good quality is a full nano dot with no visible damage. If any damaged or missing (blank square) nano dots are found, the whole order is rejected.

3. Do not communicate these requirements to your supplier unless directly asked.4. Product type die – coloured dots on the die indicate the product type. Change the product mix for each

round, e.g. R1 2G2B2R, R2 1G3B2R, R3 2G1B3R, R4 3G2B1R (each combination must have at least one of the three product colours).

5. Quantity die – use white dots with the following numbers for each round R1 – 4X50, 1X75, 1X25; R2 – same as round 1; R3 – 40, 45, 50, 50, 55, 60; R4 – Quantity dice not used.
