| Participants will be able to: |
- Develop the product, operator and multi-component flow charts
- Calculate engineering WIP distributions in complex pull structuresCreate job dispatching strategies using signal, CONWIP and kanban methodsCreate a current, future and ideal state mapAnalyze cell layout designs that encourage the suitable work element allocationsList plant material flow and lean flow for plant expansionList the facilities design procedureApply the material handling equationUse conventional (linear) techniques for analyzing material flow
- List motion economy variables for improving worker productivity

| This course presents the improvement of the value stream using broad (total system) and workstation (cell-level or process level) analysis. Various topics will be covered including, process mapping, value stream mapping, advance pull techniques, cell layout design, facilities design, motion economy, and techniques for analyzing flow. The course will present the methods of developing a current state map that reveals the most significant sources of waste. Improvement techniques and guidelines will be explained to develop a future state of operation that shortens the overall product lead time. The course will also explain how to apply guidelines for cells, machines and materials. Total system (facilities) design will also be reviewed in the understanding of dock to dock flow of material, information and people. |
