2 X-Y Exercise Ice Breaker Exercise

3 Typical Approaches to Lean Tools Focus Kaizens 5S Kanban Heijunka TPM Cells Teams System Focus Company X Production System Lean Six Sigma Subjective Assessments, Complicated Graphics, Corporate Staff Driven 3

4 Why do We Need the Tools? Lean tools were invented to help people analyze their own work processes, to help them learn how to see the waste (Muda) themselves so they can improve their work. Lean Tools Lean tools on their own don t create lean culture! 4

5 If Lean Tools don t Create the Lean Culture What does? 5

6 Three Levels of Culture Artifacts & Behavior What we see, what a newcomer, visitor or consultant would notice (e.g., dress, organization charts, physical layout, degree and formality, logos, and mission statement. Norms & Values Underlying Assumptions What they say, What we would be told is the reason things are the way they are and should be. Company philosophy, norms and justifications. What they deeply believe in & act on Unconscious, taken for granted beliefs about the organization and its work/purpose, about people, rewards etc.. Based on Edgar Schein, Coming to a new awareness of organizational culture, pp in J.B. Lau and A.B. Shani, Behavior in Organizations, Irwin, 1988

7 Lean Transformation Not Lean Implementation with tool focus System focused journey across the enterprise Develops all employees as problem solvers Competitive advantage Bottom line profits Mutual long term prosperity for all stakeholders

8 Fujio Cho, Chairman of Toyota These (concepts) are things companies (people) do not normally do. It s difficult to live the Toyota way of production.

9 Broader Definition of Lean Way of thinking Systematic Systems Thinking Connecting the Production System with the Human System creates a Total Business System 9

10 Lean Organization Purpose Vision/Values True North (Employee) Line of Sight Strategy Formulation & deployment) People Putting people before products Engaging, Involving Challenging & Coaching Teamwork Capability to ID & Solve Problems PDCA Thinking Core Process Horizontal flow of value at the pull of the customer Workplace Management through standardization & Visualization Relentless elimination of waste, overburden and unevenness Lean Tools 10

11 How do we Think as a Company? Problem solving should be an essential part of an organization s culture, from plant presidents to office work to manufacturing floor team members. Members should be aligning their daily work with the indicators of the Organization, those are: Quality, Safety, Productivity, Cost, and HR-T&D "Tell me and I will forget, show me and I might remember, involve me and I will understand." - Confucius 11

12 Defining the Purpose Capability to ID & Solve Problems Strategy Formulation & deployment) People Process Putting people before products Engaging, Involving Challenging & Coaching Teamwork PURPOSE Vision/Values True North (Employee) Line of Sight PDCA Thinking Core Horizontal flow of value at the pull of the customer Workplace Management through standardization & Visualization Relentless elimination of waste, overburden and unevenness Lean Tools 12

13 Horizontal Versus Vertical Lean management places the horizontal flow of value in the foreground: Lean managers think horizontally, with the help of value stream leaders. However Functions are still strong (or even stronger): Repositories of deep technical knowledge Home base for employees Guardians of career paths 13

14 Big horizontal business processes Value and work flows across functions Suppliers Sales Marketing/ R&D Supply Chain Human Resources Finance IT Customers Growing the Business Selling, market building Ideation, product development and launch Business development and alliances Most important problems are cross-functional Fulfilling Customer Orders Order to delivery Buy make ship Procurement and supplier development Growing and Developing People, Leaders Human resources management Training and development Learning and problem solving 14

15 Customer Focus Value added is always determined from the customer s perspective - Who is the customer? Every process should be focusing on adding value to the customer Anything that does not add value is waste Some non-value added activity is necessary waste

16 Which one describes your Company? Vertical Focus - Production Budgets, SOP s Make the numbers Leaders separated from the work People s ingenuity used to beat the system Supervisors manage people Horizontal Focus - Process Purpose Make problems visible Leaders focusing on the work People s ingenuity used to improve the system Supervisors work with the people to solve problems

17 True North Purpose, Philosophy and Beliefs Values Vision Big Picture Goals

18 Purpose Company Goals Employee Goals Profit Long Term Success Contribute to Economy Contribute to Society Good Quality Long Term Mutual Prosperity A Paycheck Growth Good Benefits A Safe Workplace Meaningful Work Mutual Trust

19 A Partnership between an Organization & its Employees Organization provides Stable Employment & Sustains or Improves Working Conditions Organizational Prosperity is achieved through Continuous Improvement Respect Partnership Mutual Trust Continuous Improvement Employees Satisfaction is experienced through the Continuous Improvement Process Employees Contribute Efforts to Realize Company Objectives

20 Intention of Customer First / Quality First Quality to Who? This process is good. Because defect ratio is about 0.01% Achievement of defect ratio equals good quality? Thinking just from Company Perspective. Quality is to Customers It s necessary to consider/judge from Customer perspective. Customer Expectation = always moving, variation. Quality Toyota STD Quality = Customer Expectation Cost & Productivity is for Company.

21 Quality vs. Cost/Productivity Good Quality Cost Productivity High Quality Lowest Cost Highest Productivity Bad High Cost Low Amount Strong Point of Toyota: Able to produce Best Quality Vehicle, at lower Cost, in Timely manner. Assure Quality First, Carry out the Lowest Cost/Highest Productivity

22 Alignment of Values Society Economy Company Group Self

23 Applicability of Values to Key Stakeholders Customer Suppliers Employee Community Owners/Investors Competitors

24 Benchmark-Toyota Way The Toyota Way 2001 is an ideal, a standard and a guiding beacon for the people of the global Toyota organization. It expresses the beliefs and values shared by all of us.

25 Toyota Way Values Beliefs Thoughts Actions Habits TBP 8 Steps Character Culture It Starts with Values Goals for the company 25

26 Servant Leadership Leadership develops the capacity that allows team members to improve what needs to be done Suppliers Team Members - Customers Team Members Group Leaders Asst. Manager/Manager Asst/General Manager Vice President President

27 Building the Lean Process PURPOSE Vision/Values True North (Employee) Line of Sight Process Strategy Formulation & deployment) People Putting people before products Engaging, Involving Challenging & Coaching Teamwork Horizontal flow of value at the pull Capability of the to customer ID & Solve Problems Workplace Management through standardization & Visualization PDCA Thinking Relentless elimination of waste, overburden Core and unevenness Lean Tools 27

29 Lean Management Hoshin Thinking Process External and Internal environment at year-end SWOT True North Purpose of plan (start of year) Company business priorities (measures) Data Crunching Adjust Grasp the situation Plan Department goals for coming year Check Do New needs and expectations of team Plan: Goals, strategies, and activities Reflection: What actually happened? Shortfalls in previous outcomes and activities Manager grasps situation and prioritizes needs of team Goals and strategy for coming year Adapted from Getting the right things done Pascal Dennis Storytelling

30 Hoshin Kanri Process

31 Roadmap Start by knowing the destination Hoshin Kanri True North: Ideal Mid-Range Plan 2010 Annual Policy & Objectives 2010 Plant Annual Plan 2010 Manager Annual Plans Everyone knows the destination!!

32 Comparison between MBO and Hoshin Kanri Management by Objectives Results Oriented Evaluation of Effort Top down Communication Directive Hoshin Kanri Concerned with both Results and Process of getting those Results Top down Direction Setting and Bottom-up flow of Information and means Participative Primarily Authority Oriented Primarily Responsibility Oriented

33 Hoshin Roadmap Later Destination (Vision) Use Continuous Improvement to remove small obstacles on an ongoing basis Later Use Hoshin to remove the Big Boulders, one at a Time Starting Point (Current Condition) The Strategic Plan is the Road to a Desired Future State of the Organization 33

34 Hoshin Kanri = Direction Management Company Hoshin Function Hoshin OJD P/S Vertical Alignment Division Hoshin Horizontal Alignment Department Hoshin Individual Priority Themes

I will guide and coach Task Master Here is what to do and how do it General Management Expertise In-Depth Understanding of Work

36 Principal Roles For ALL The Lean Management System 1. Go and See: Understand the real situation, the real process, from the real people who work it, at the real place of action. 2. Define Normal Conditions Is the Current Condition (ab)normal? Prove it. Can you define (ab)normal? Write it. Can you SEE (ab)normal? Visual Management When is it (ab)normal? Tracking Metrics 3. Solve a Problem Teach the METHOD for Problem Solving get involvement. Implement Solutions / Permanent counter measures. 4. Sustain and Nurture the Processes/People

47 Lean Management is Different Solution How to Develop Solution Lean s Management System Leaves up to the team member Specifies Traditional Management System Specifies Leaves up to the member In order to practice, we need to know what to practice and this is why Lean Leaders must specify the pattern that they want practiced.

48 THE OBJECTIVES OF STANDARDIZATION Reduce variability, increase predictability Enhance repeatability, confidence, consistency Clarify procedures Enhance communication Improve Problem Solving Set good discipline Develop awareness Establish Problem Consciousness Establish a basis for education and training Establish a baseline for performance Improve Quality, Safety, Delivery, Cost Provide the basis for Improvement

49 How to Implement Standardization 1. Clarify Job Expectations / Goals (Clarify customer expectations) 2. Visualize and break down Standardized work into Major steps (Visualize process into manageable steps) 3. Verify necessary conditions (Inputs, tools, parts, capability for each work element) 6. Process Improvement / Standardization 4. Clarify process criteria (clear specifications for each work element) 4B. Document and Share (Supervisor, staff and Related divisions) 5B. 5. Implement and Monitor (Confirm major steps meet process criteria) Environment Change Problem Occurrence

50 Toyota Continuous Improvement Culture Work Teams Create Initial Standards Learning from Past Problems Broader Problem Solving to Level Up System Continuous Improvement Work Teams Work to Standard and Detect Deviations From Standards Work Team Root Cause Problem Solving Improves Standards Work Teams Contain Disruptions to Production Underlying Assumption: Human and Technical Processes are interrelated and dynamic so initial designs are only a rough starting point which must be continuously improved by every team member. Results: High levels of engagement at all levels in the actual process leads to continuous strengthening of the system and high congruence between expectations and reality.
