Reducing the overall time from receiving the order to delivering the
product makes your company more responsive to the customer.
This can become the deciding factor when the customer makes
their selection.
As can be seen, manufacturing is only one part of the entire
process. Inputting, processing, and issuing orders is an area
for improvement, as well as, assembly, loading and delivery
to the customer`

Wheres the Time in Lead Time
This timeline represents an overall lead-time, with very little
time spent on adding value to the product.
Non-Value Added Time (NVA)
99% of Total Lead time

Concentrated on reducing VA time,
with no attention given to NVA.

Different Types of Activities
Being able to tell the difference between NVA and VA
activities is an important step in the Improvement Process.
Value Added
Activity (VA)
An activity that changes raw
material to meet customer
expectations.
Non Value Added
Activity (NVA)
Those activities that take
time, or occupy space but do
not add to the value of the
product.
You must ask yourselves Would you as a customer be
willing to pay for any NVA activity being performed to that
NEW 4x4 Pickup you just ordered?
7. 7
Some examples NVA Activities:
Walking Waiting on
machine cycle
Transporting
parts
Generating
useless reports
THE GOAL IS TO ELIMINATE THE
NON-VALUE ADDED ACTIVITIES.
Unnecessary
motion
Unnecessary
stock on hand
8. 8
A definition:
Destroy, in our minds, the
concepts and techniques of
manufacturing that we
practice today.
Create a vision of what our
production system and
manufacturing techniques
should be.
Carry out that Vision by
breaking through the status
quo.
We must avoid the urge to
discover more sophisticated and
technological solutions to tasks
we shouldnt be doing at all.

Basic Rules for Change

No such thing as a dumb question or idea
Avoid spending money (Capital expense should
be a last resort)
Think about how to do it, NOT why it cant be done
Maintain a positive attitude
Dont make excuses & question current practices
Just do it!!
Have Fun!!!

What is TAKT Time?
TAKT time is how many minutes or seconds are needed
to make one part when considering the daily volumes, to
be produced in that workcell and the total time available to
perform the job.
TAKT time is NOT the time it takes to manufacture the
product. It is based on customer demand.
Who is the customer?
The next operation

The 5S Housekeeping Standards
First Step towards Continuos Improvement
The aim of 5S is to create an atmosphere to keep a clean,
organized, safe and efficient workplace for everyone.
The foundation for the practice of 5S, comes from a Japanese
program derived from these words, seiri, seiton, seiso, seiketsu
and shitsuke. The 5Ss are a conventional approach towards
maintaining and improving the work place. The following words
have been chosen for the 5S acronyms.
Sort
Sustain
Sanitize (Safety)
Straighten
Sweep
14. 1
Meaning of the 5Ss
Sort
Straighten
Sweep
(Scrubbing clean)
Examine everything at the workplace & identify
what is needed and what can be discarded
Organizing the way things are put away with
efficiency, quality, and safety in mind. Need to
decide where and how things should be put away
and what rules should be obeyed to insure that it is
maintained.
Sweeping, scrubbing and cleaning of the building,
machines, fixtures & tools so that all areas of the
workplace are neat & tidy. This leads to early
detection of mechanical problems before they
become major breakdowns. Machines cry!
15. 1
Sanitize
(Safety)
Sustain
(Standardize)
Meaning of the 5Ss
Insuring that each workplace is properly
designed for safety. This is to protect every
member from the dangers during the
performance of their assigned tasks.
Developing the practice necessary to continually
participate in the 5S process. This requires that
each of the Ss become a personal habit. This
is the most difficult of the 5Ss, but it is the most
important factor in achieving long term success.
Establishing routines and procedures for
maintaining and improving on the first four (Ss),
incorporating visual management tools.
