| Value Stream Flow Kaizen Workshops |
5 Day On-Site Workshop
|
|
 |
Just-in-time Supply Chain Flow Kaizen Objectives:
• discuss just-in-time supply chain logistics principles, value, and value streams
• create a comprehensive current state value stream map of the participant’s focus dock-to-Point of Use (POU) supply chain value stream
• using actual case studies and team interactions, thoroughly analyze a product
fabrication, a vehicle assembly, and a machine fabrication manufacturer from the last value adding step at the upstream supplier, through internal facility material management activities, to the material’s point of use
• discuss key aspects of just-in-time supply chain operations, smoothed & balanced workload, visual process control, and kaizen principles and methodologies
• assist participants in understanding how JIT principles & practices can significantly improve materials flow within the focus supply chain value stream
• assist participants in visualizing, then developing an aggressive, yet feasible future state improvement design and an aggressive transformation framework
• discuss effective techniques to manage a complete value stream and transform it to just-in-time principles and practices
|
To achieve these objectives, participants will:
• practice, through discussions and case study illustration, just-in-time supply chain value stream flow mapping, logistics kaizen concepts, team building, and kaizen management
• develop current and future state maps of actual case study supply chain value streams
• identify flow impediments which must be eliminated through kaizen to achieve case study future state improvements and discuss mechanisms which support implementation

A day prior to each workshop, the workshop coach will make a process flow assessment of the Model value stream. |
