IENG 451 JIT

Slide 2

Production Physics Littles Law Throughput = WIP/Cycle time For fixed capacity, cycle time and WIP or proportional thus you can increase throughput either by increasing WIP or by decreasing cycle time

Slide 3

Production Physics Law of variability increasing variability inevitably degrades the performance of the system Law of variability buffering variability in a production system will be buffered by some combination of inventory, capacity, or time

Slide 4

JIT Principles Dont produce something unless a customer has ordered it Level demand so that work may proceed smoothly throughout the plant Link all processes to customer demands through visual tools (kanbans) Maximize the flexibility of people and machinery

Slide 5

Pull Systems Nobody upstream produces a good or a service until somebody downstream asks for it

Slide 6

Pull Systems Nobody upstream produces a good or a service until somebody downstream asks for it

Slide 7

Pull Systems Nobody upstream produces a good or a service until somebody downstream asks for it

Slide 8

Kanban Rules Never ship defective items Customer withdraws only what is needed Produce only quantity withdrawn by the customer Level production Use kanban to fine-tune production Stabilize and strengthen the process

Slide 9

Production orders Batch of 10 vs Batch of 100 Adjust more quickly to demand Better sense of takt time Fewer peaks and valleys Better control of abnormality production

Slide 10

Pull Systems Type A Frequent orders with short lead times, most common, replenishing gaps created in the finished goods storage Type B Infrequent orders or long lead times, pacemaker is usually midstream Type C Combination of type A and type B running in parallel

Value Stream Mapping VSM helps grasp current condition and identify improvement opportunities Improvement events create localized improvements; VSM provides a vision and plans that connect all improvement activities VSM allows you to see waste and plan to eliminate it

Slide 23

What is VSM Planning tool to optimize results of reducing waste

Slide 24

Five Principles for VSM Specify value from end customer standpoint Identify value stream for each product family Make the product flow Customer pulls the system Manage towards perfection

Slide 25

Value to Customer ? How does current product / process disappoint customers value expectation: Price ? Quality ? Delivery ?

Slide 26

What Flows Manufacturing; materials are the items that flow Design & development; designs flow Service; customer needs are the items Administration; internal customer needs are the items
