  • 2011 Capgemini. All rights reserved. 6

    Post World War II Toyota had few resources compared to the USA

    Mass production could never be replicated as they could not buy or access the machinery, materials or the skilled

    workforce

    Ohno realised that they had to:

    o Produce in small batches

    o Produce good quality and when errors occur correct them and

    prevent them from reoccurring

    o Flow production

    Definition and origins of lean

    Lean focuses on delivering maximum value to the customer by eliminating waste

    Lean Thinking has successfully transformed many companies, giving them a greater focus on performance and customer requirements

    The five principles of Lean

    1. Define what is of value to the customer

    2. Create a continuous flow of value to the customer,

    eliminate waste and complexity

    3. Link the flow of value directly to customer

    demand

    4. Empower employees to manage the process,

    and make them accountable for improvement

    5. Maintain a strong focus on continuous

    improvement

    Waste is anything that consumes time & resources, but does not contribute to satisfying customer needs, or something that the customer will not pay for

  • 2011 Capgemini. All rights reserved. 8

    Toyota identified 7 wastes, which are relevant to most business environments

    Activities Wastes

    Company

    Value Added

    Customer

    Value Added

    The 7 wastes

    1.Waiting Unassigned capacity between projects

    2.Over production Development exceeding contract scope

    3.Rework Code being revised

    4.Motion Resources switched between tasks

    5.Over processing Non-actionable supporting tools

    6.Inventory Large backlog of tickets

    7.Transportation Multiple handoffs in ticket management

    8.Intellect People at wrong place in the orga.

    Definition

    1. Waste adds no value to the

    customer and no value to the

    organization.

    2. Company Value added is

    required to enable key

    business processes,

    governance, security and

    integrity.

    3. Customer Value Added is the

    work that is done that gives

    the customer the service

    required.

    7 types of waste or 7 Mudas

    Lean provides a way of doing more with less and less while coming closer and closer to the customers needs

  • 2011 Capgemini. All rights reserved. 9

    Categories of Wastes in Business environments

    Toyota Examples Service Examples

    Waiting Waiting for previous processes to finish.

    Waiting for materials to arrive

    Waiting for Computer Systems to Load

    Waiting for Responses from other teams

    Over Production Production of parts without a customer order Reports that no-one reads

    Making extra copies of documents

    Rework Time spent making defective products that

    can not be accepted by the customer

    Data entry errors

    Missing customer information

    Motion Excessive human / equipment effort poor layout and process design

    Searching for files

    Extra key strokes

    Over Processing Adding to a part something that is not

    required by the customer

    Repeated entry of the same data

    Giving more info. than the customer needs

    Inventory Raw Material / WIP / Finished goods tied up capital

    Queues of paperwork

    Unopened customer applications

    Transportation Moving parts from one location to another

    without adding value Posting paperwork between departments

    The identification and elimination of waste is fundamental to Lean reducing costs and increasing profit. Other benefits are derived from waste elimination

    Kaizen Thinking

    The Kaizen philosophy is drawn from the Japanese word

    kai which means continuous and zen mean in improvement or wisdom.

    The Kaizen management philosophy, therefore, is defined as making continuous improvementslow, incremental but constant

    Poka- Yoke / Error Proofing

    Poka Yoke or error proofing is one key element of a quality system.

    A Poka Yoke (from the Japanese poka (mistakes), yokeru (avoid)) is any

    mechanism/system in a Lean environment that draws attention to, prevents or

    eliminates errors as they occur.

    There are three levels of error proofing:

    Elimination

    Prevention

    Detection

    To eliminate errors first they must be detected and prevented

  • 2011 Capgemini. All rights reserved. 16

    Error proofing is present in everyday life

    Are these detection or prevention?

    Beep

    beep!

    Detection Prevention

    You can still oversleep!

    It doesnt prevent you from running out of petrol

    Nothing actually stops you

    Its impossible to put the plug in the wrong way round

    You dont get your cash until you remove your card

    Its impossible to drop the cover down the hole

    SOME IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS

    Cycle time The total time taken from the start of the production of a product or service to its completion. Cycle time

    includes processing time, move time, wait time, and inspection time, etc..

    Period required to complete one cycle of an operation; or to complete a function, job, or task from start to

    finish.

    Delay or Non Value added time Time spent on Non-value added work, also called waste, refers to work that doesn't add value to or is

    unnecessary for the overall project.

    Takt Time Takt is a German word which refers to the beat of music or meter

    Takt Time-- the desired time for units of production output, synchronized to customer demand.

    Takt time is the time given by customer to complete a single unit

    Example1 :

    In a retail store that is open 8 hours a day including weekends there are 30 billing tills and during peak

    season there are 30000 customers buying goods in 30 days. What is the TAKT time per till assuming that

    arrival rate of customers is even in all the billing tills and how many customers are serviced in one day?

    Answer

    Takt time/customer = 30*30*8/30000= 0.24 hours

    Number of customers serviced in a day = 30*8/0.24 = 1000

    Medium 2 20 20*2 = 40

    Simple 1 40 40

    Total 128

    A release is planned for 12 complex , 20 Medium and 40 simple tickets in 10 days

    Total Available time = 10*8*8 = 640 hours

    Takt time = 640/128 = 5 hours/simple ticket

    Resource Skill Level No Equivalent

    Simple Resources

    P1 Highly Skilled 1 1*2 = 2

    P2 Medium Skilled 2 2*1.5 = 3

    P3 Low Skilled 3 3

    Some examples where VSM can be applied

    Software Execution processes:

    o TS : Concept thru design and implementation to release in new development

    o OS services: Bug reproduction, analysis to bug fixing, testing and build in defect fix cycle

    o Testing: Developing test plans and testing the product to releasing the final product in case of

    validation

    Information Management Processes:

    o Project Management : Allocation of work, monitoring of progress, updating stake holders on the

    progress, issues and risks till releasing the final product to Customer or validation group

    Physical transformation Processes

    Recruitment, training them and allocating them to the projects as per requirement

    Organizational level Processes

    Finance, Invoicing and MIS reporting etc

    TO-BE VS AS-IS

    The future state map is created from the current state map

    To draw a future state map and create the conditions for change, you need to consider:

    Flow

    Where can you use continuous flow

    How you level production to support improvements

    What process improvements are necessary (e.g. reliability, quality etc.)

    Conclusion

    VSM is at the core of Lean Process Improvement Activity

    VSM is a powerful, flexible, visual tool, which enables everybody to interpret the steps of a process, and highlight the lead time and the waste contained within

    the process

    The map if kept dynamic will help prioritise opportunities for improvement
