LEAN SOLUTIONS/ CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT (CONT.)
LEAN BOOT CAMP 44 hours – $16,500 This training provides an overview of the basic principles and tools of lean manufacturing. A simulation is used to introduce the core principles related to lean manufacturing and continuous improvement, as well as to support team problem solving. In the Lean Simulation, participants become employees of a company called “Traditional Manufacturing Company” for the duration of the workshop. The simulation alternates between production weeks, lean training and improvement planning rounds. Following each production week, an income statement (the “scoreboard”) is created to see the impact of recommended changes made to the bottom line. The simulation begins with traditional manufacturing and moves to lean as participants suggest changes that can be immediately tested in the simulation in “production” rounds. Through the simulation, participants learn what to look for when making improvements, identify the lean tools that will help improve operations, how to consider the system as a whole (not just their area), the importance of documenting their plans and predicting the outcomes, and comparing the actual results achieved with their predicted results.
Phase 3: Application of Lean Principles Participants will use problem solving tools to assist in the continual improvement process. Participants are introduced to the five steps required to create a cellular design. Participants will also receive detailed training that will guide them to balance the workload to take time. PROBLEM SOLVING 8 hours – $2,000 This simple and quick training will develop the skills needed to see and think systematically. Topics and activities covered: 1. Basic Problem Solving System/Shop floor utilized system 2. Storyboard utilization with supporting check sheet and tools 3. Clear understanding of how and when it is used 4. A system and process for escalating issues 5. Positive recognition for utilizing the system and achieving success 6. How to lead a team through the process 7. Standard process and questions leadership will use when reviewing the problem-solving storyboards LEAN SOLUTIONS/CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS 12 hours – $3,900 This training will focus on problem solving used for identifying the root causes of faults or problems. Training will be focused on three general principles: 1. Define and describe properly the event or problem (“five whys” technique) 2. Establish a timeline from normal situation until the final crisis or failure. Distinguish between root causes and causal factor 3. Once implemented and with constant execution, RCA is transformed into a method or problem prediction
LEAN CHAMPION 60 hours – $22,500 Phase 1: Preparing the Lean Champion
Participants are introduced to the methods to manage cultural change, and the importance of making changes to achieve the desired culture. Participants will be exposed to the power of teamwork and will learn how to select and form successful teams. In addition, participants will learn how to lead teams to success through the typical stages of team growth and development. Phase 2: Elements of Lean Manufacturing Learn the tools and techniques that are applied in the production process to eliminate waste.
