1 Lean Simulation Game Why Creep when We Can Fly?

2 Content 1. Objectives of the Lean simulation game Rules KPI s Program.... 6

3 1. Objectives of the Game Primary Purpose: - Provide an overview of Lean techniques. - Introduce Lean Thinking At the end of the game the participants will: - Have a basic understanding of the lean tools and techniques and their application; - Recognize the benefits of the Lean manufacturing system; - Increase their engagement towards achievement of long term company excellence through lean practices; - Understand the path to application of pull flow systems and Kan-Ban Benefits: - The Lean Simulation Why Creep when We Can Fly? is a very powerful tool for learning the advantages of the lean methodology by playing a practical game. - It is very easy to understand the lean tools. - It is interesting to be played by the managers in order for them to be self-convinced in the benefits of the methodology. - It can be played also by the operators in order to change their attitude towards the new way of thinking Lean Thinking.

4 2. Rules In this manufacturing simulation, you are to assume the role of production team building various colored widgets for your customer. The object of the game is to best satisfy your customer with the lowest possible cost. There are three main production processes in the simulation: Base Assembly Product Assembly Heat Treat There are also 2 additional processes: Inspection Warehouse Your production team is composed of the following positions: 1. Customer 2. Truck Driver 3. Warehouse Manager 4. Inspector 5. Heat Treat Operator 6. Assembly Operator 7. Base Assembly Operator 8. Machine Set-Up Technician 9. Master Scheduler 10. Buyer 11. Supplier 12. Tool Crib Supervisor 13. Process Improvement Engineer 14. Plant Manager 15. Material Handler

5 3. KPI s The Lean simulation game is conducted in 4 rounds. At the end of each round the following KPI s are measured and analyzed: Customer Service Rate (%): Total Units Produced: (pcs.) Average Cycle Time (s.): Total WIP ( ): Total Finished Goods ( ): Total Overhead ( ): Total Units Sold ( ): Quality rate (%): Total Cost ( ): Cost per Unit ( ): PROFIT ( ): Based on the result the team will make improvements in the process after each round. The final goal is the implementation of the Lean principles and obtaining the effects with improved achievements of the KPI s
