1 44 th CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems May 31 June 3, 2011 Madison, WI, USA Program MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS ENGINEERING UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON

2 Welcome From Neil A. Duffie, Conference Chair Welcome to the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the 44th CIRP Conference on Manufacturing Systems. This conference has a long history of bringing together researchers from the wide field of manufacturing systems engineering, and we are delighted to be hosting it this year in Madison. The conference provides an unparalleled international forum for researchers to discuss the state of the art and innovation in the field of manufacturing production and logistics, and to disseminate their recent advances and ideas in this area. Today, the New World of manufacturing is truly global, and other New Worlds of cyber, micro/nano and bio technologies are being developed in exciting manufacturing research programs with the view of their integration into new products and manufacturing systems that will change the future as dramatically as laptops and smart phones have changed the present. Such futuristic thinking is addressed in the conference proceedings by technical papers from authors of some 22 nationalities on topics ranging from production networks to service engineering to nanomanufacturing. The conference site, which surrounds the beautiful atrium of the newly remodeled Mechanical Engineering Building on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, will host formal presentations on these topics and will foster informal discussions and relationship-building between international participants. The Organizing Committee would like to express its gratitude to the members of the International Program Committee for their insight and professionalism in reviewing proposed papers and providing priceless advice to the Organizing Committee and the authors. We would like to thank our sponsors and College of Engineering for their support and encouragement and, finally, we would like to thank you for participating! We are sure that you will find the conference intellectually stimulating and professionally productive, and we are sure that you will find that the City of Madison and its great University live up to their international reputation for scholarship, business, sports, nightlife and the arts.

13 Fundamental approach to standardize the application of Value Stream Mapping P. Kuhlang 1, C. Morawetz 1, W. Sihn 1, K. Wagner 2 1 Vienna University of Technology and Fraunhofer Austria Research GmbH Theresianumgasse 27, Vienna, Austria 2 Procon Unternehmensberatung GmbH, Saarplatz 17, Vienna, Austria Abstract The systematic improvement of processes is practically realised in the industry and economy by operating a Process Management (PcM) System. Many authors also recommend a systematic repetition of Value Stream Mapping (VSM); but the global experiences in applying VSM do more or less indicate a single or punctual application of VSM to improve processes or value streams. The findings discussed in this paper describe the systematic embedding of Value Stream Mapping into the life cycle of a Process Management System using the principles of innovation and continuous improvement. Thus the Process Management System enables a systematic, regularly repeating application of VSM by extending its 4-step-procedure. One suitable way to standardise the application of VSM is specified in this paper on a theoretical base to make this approach international applicable. Keywords Value Stream Mapping, Process Management, Process Life Cycle 1 INTRODUCTION Practical application and current research activities have shown similarities between the approach of Process Management (PcM) and the approach of Value Stream Mapping (VSM) in many aspects. It is obvious, that a combination of these two methods provides mutual benefits and synergies and offers the opportunity for improved new procedures to apply these methods. Own practical experiences in VSM projects as well as the scientific discourse in the German-speaking world indicate a clear need to standardise the firm integration of VSM in improvement routines. This is the way to attain systematic improvement of processes lasting, recurrently and on a regular basis. VSM is an internationally used, successful method usually applied in single projects with high innovative impacts and should be developed towards a more continuous application by being embedded into a systematic Process Management approach. Process Management presents a systematic and cultivating approach, which does not exist in the VSM projects accomplished based on the Rothers and Shooks [1] approach. So far only a repeated application of the 4 step method is recommended, but it is not described explicitly [2]. A procedure for a systematical and recurring application does not exist yet. These days a systematic Process Management System has been introduced and approved in countless enterprises. The following remarks show from a theoretical point of view how the embedding of VSM into a systematic Process Management System can be realised and enabling VSM to become a part of phases of the Process Life Cycle at the same time. 2 FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES TO SYSTEMATISE VSM All natural systems and therefore processes too, are constantly changing. A process, that has once reached a certain performance level, is likely to lose that level in a natural way. Standards - such as aims and guidelines - stabilize the process on the achieved performance level in an ideal-typical way. Improvements to push processes to a higher performance level can be achieved by innovation and continuous improvement. These are the two different principles that can realize improvements for the increase in the performance level of a process. Both principles need a different amount of time and both should be utilized in organisations. Small, continuous improvement steps often need more time to obtain a higher performance level than innovation leaps which lead to a generally higher level of process performance within a shorter period of time. Innovation usually means a radical improvement with crucial changes. Innovation leaps are discontinuous, often initiated by strategic decisions that are usually highly complex and interdisciplinary. Continuous improvement means evolutionary improvement measures with slight modification steps, stabilize and incrementally increase an accomplished state of performance level even further. 3 DEFINITION OF PROCESS AND VALUE STREAM As indicated in Figure 1, processes have inputs and outputs that confine a process to the contiguous processes (upstream and downstream) and fulfill the process purpose. The input (to be considered as an activated incident), the actual process flow and the required resources as well as the output (outcome) are basic parameters to define a process. Processes are confined on a temporarily base as well as with regards to the content. Within the process the responsibilities for the sub-processes/activities are defined as well as the required information. The process objectives are derived top-down from the overall business objectives. They can cover general quality aspects of the business such as cost and time aspects. The commitment of process responsibilities completes the required parameters of a process [3].

14 Figure 1: Process definition [3] A value stream includes all activities, i.e. value-adding, non-value-adding and supporting activities that are necessary to create a product (or to render a service) and to make this available to the customer. This includes the operational processes, the flow of material between the processes, all control and steering activities and also the flow of information (see Fig 2). Taking a value stream view means considering the general picture of an organisation and not just individual aspects [4]. Figure 2: Picture of a value stream (the so-called value stream map) 4 VALUE STREAM DESIGN AND PROCESS MANAGEMENT 4.1 Value Stream Design VSM was originally developed as a method within the Toyota Production System [5] and is an essential element of Lean Management [6]. It was first introduced as an independent methodology by Mike Rother and John Shook. VSM is a simple, yet very effective, method to gain a holistic overview of the status of the value streams within an organisation. Based on the analysis of the current status, flow-oriented value streams are planned and implemented for the target-status. In order to assess possible improvement potential, VSM considers, in particular, the entire operating time compared with the overall lead time. The greater the distinction between operating and lead time the higher the improvement potential [7,8,9]. By defining future states, VSM uses a 4- Step approach including an action plan to describe necessary actions and activities (what, by whom, until when) to improve the value stream/process. Originally the method was described only for simple and discrete production process chains, but quickly the need for an extension towards mixed model value streams was discovered. Erlach and Duggan described approaches dealing with that [8,10].VSM was primarily developed as a method for the improvement of production processes. Therefore, Rother and Shook have defined seven guidelines for establishing an efficient, customer-oriented value stream. Meanwhile, Fraunhofer Austria has defined eight guidelines to do so [11] and introduced further advancement of VSM by combining it with MTM (Methods-Time Measurement) [12] to increase productivity and lead time. Furthermore, the method VSM has been adapted to the needs of administrative processes. Therefore, alternative guidelines and new ways of visualization have been defined by Wiegand [13,14]. 4.2 Process Management Process Management causes a sustainable improvement of working procedures in the organizational structure: Activities are geared towards the added value. Process Management is the combination of activities which includes the planning and monitoring of a process. It is also the application of knowledge, skills, tools, techniques and systems to define, visualize, measure, control, report and improve processes with the goal to meet customer requirements profitably. This improves the employees incentive to work, because they are able to recognize the importance of their contributions in the overall context. The hub in the Process Management concept is the Process Life Cycle (see Fig. 3 for a basic principle diagram).

The Process Life Cycle defines the steps in the cycle of a process in the Process Management System in form of phases and phase transitions. Phase 1 and 2 represent the design and conception of processes. Phase 3 and 4 specify the recurring work of implementing processes. The entire Process Life Cycle can also be considered as two processes ( to design a process and to operate and control processes ) according to the described phases. Another view is the combination of phase 2 and 3 focussing the management of single processes, the combination of phase 4 and 1 focussing management of multi processes [3]. To define a process in the sense of disclosing and realising potentials for improvement, the 4-Step-Method (see Fig. 5) is used. The 4-Step-Method is a generic approach in PcM and consists of [15]: Step I: Identification and Scope Step II: Analysis of actual (as-is, current-state) processes Step III: Design target (to-be) processes Step IV: Implementation of improvements Step two is keen on coming up with the so-called improvement list (see Fig. 4), which is used for tracking the considered actions for the purpose of improving the process. It is similar to the VSM action plan but covers broader aspects and parameter. The continuous improvement of the process takes place in phase 3 and 4 of the Process Life Cycle in structured Process Jour Fixe meetings [16]. improvement-list process: processteam: 1 2 Figure 4: Improvement list 5 PROCESS LIFE CYCLE AS THE FUNDAMENTAL BASIS TO SYSTEMATISE VSM The 4-Step-Method is an application to design new processes, and it is also used to both modify and to improve existing processes. The result of this procedure is in most cases a fundamentally changed, respectively improved process. The 4 steps are implemented by a sequence of at least four Process Team Meetings (PTM). In addition to the process owner and the members of the process team, a process coach and, depending on demand, people from other relevant areas are attending the PTMs as well. Hence it is tried to ensure gaining valuable proposals to improve processes. The so-called Process Jour Fixe (PJF) meetings are instruments for a current and continuous control of the process in phase 3 and during the transition to reporting and monitoring in phase 4. During the phase 3, adaptations and modifications of the process are continuously happening. Another task of the PJF is to record these changes, thus keeping the process documentation up to date regularly. The ongoing measurement and illustration of process performance indicators is a condition for process teams to influence the process in phase 3 of the Process Life

16 Cycle. Furthermore they are also the general basis for reporting and monitoring of all the different processes. Relevant decisions about necessary improvements taken in the PJF are documented in the improvement list [15]. The 4-Step-Method in the second phase of the Process Life Cycle takes all necessary steps to define the future state of a process. This new process is implemented during the transition from phase 2 to phase 3. In phase 3, the focus is set on meeting the requirements and on identifying and realizing incremental improvement actions. This is called the everyday life of a process. The reporting and the monitoring of different processes and several process goals is taking place in phase 4. Thus, the information available in phase 2 and phase 3 is broadened by relevant, respectively strategic parameters and aspects [15]. All relevant information and performance indicators as well as actual problems in the daily life of the process are conditioned prior to a process management review. Therefore they are, also available for the PJF and the PTM in order to accomplish a successful decision making and to provide the basis for the deduction of necessary improvement actions. 5.1 Comparing the two 4-Step approaches By comparing the two 4-Step approaches (see Fig. 5 and 6) within VSM and PcM, many similarities arise. Figure 5: 4-Step approach of PcM Choose a product family Draw a current state map (Value Stream Analysis) Develop a future state (Value Stream Design) Action Plan Implementation of future state In VSM as well as in PcM, the first step is to limit and define the scope of improvement, by choosing a product family on hand or identifying and encircling a certain process on the other hand. This is in both cases an important and crucial step in order to identify and combine similar processes, but also to separate value streams or processes. Of course this step is also necessary to limit the improvement scope and to make the effort predictable up to a certain degree [16]. In both approaches, the current state is analyzed in step 2. PcM uses flow-charts or similar charts to visualize the current situation, VSM draws a current state map using the typical VSM-symbols. A remarkable difference occurs in the recording and analysis of data. Whereas VSM is quite strongly focused on the distinction between operating and lead time, PcM focuses on different performance indicators as well as on soft facts that cannot be measured with numbers that easily. Although not visible in the figures above, a similarity in step 2 is the focus on customer demand and customer requirements in both approaches. The third step is in both approaches characterized by the design of a future (target) state. Whereas VSM uses eight guidelines to create an efficient, customer-oriented value stream to elaborate the future state, PcM uses a great variety of methods or tools (e.g. FMEA, Q7, Ishikawa- Diagram,...) to identify room for improvement and to elaborate the target state. Similarities are designed first by way of designing a future state that encompasses in both states an ideal state which is free from restrictions (e.g. floor space, availability of qualifies employees, etc. After that, the desired future state is derived from the ideal state, under the assumption that it can be implemented within a reasonable time frame. As visualized in Figure 7, the ideal state is subject to change. Step 4 is again quite similar in both approaches and the planned improvements are implemented. During the execution of the 4-Step approaches (in PcM as well as in VSD) the as is situation is determined and an ideal state is defined as well as a target state is described at point-in-time 1 up to n. Through the realisation of improvements, summarised in the action plan or the improvement-list, a new current as is state occurs at point-in-time n+1, which can be achieved within the economical, organisational and time-delimited requirements. The objective here lies in the transference of the as is situation as described by point-in-time n to the target state described by point-in-time n+1 (see Fig. 7). Based on this step-by-step procedure to achieve the ideal state, the necessary amount of required resources for improving the processes becomes predictable and can therefore be estimated. These two approaches, the 4-Step-Method of PcM and the 4-Step approach of VSD, have been designed to cause a rearrangement of a process. 6 SYSTEMATISATION OF VSM The approach in solving the problem of systematisation respectively of standardisation of VSM is closely related to a common principle of organisation theory, the connection of continuous improvement and innovation. This interplay can also be found in the PcM-System, in phase 2 and 3 of the Process Life Cycle. These phases reflect the change between continuous improvement of a process and the big development leaps. Figure 6: 4-Step approach of VSM

After selecting a value stream in phase 1, this value stream is changed fundamentally in phase 2 of the Process Life Cycle. This innovation step is performed by using the 4-step method of PcM. The new value stream is designed in at least four Process Team Meetings (PTM). The phase 3 of the Process Life Cycle represents the daily life of a value stream. Constantly, small adjustments and improvements take place and the process owner is steering the value stream with the help of an improvement list and regular Process Jour Fix (PJF) meetings. In Figure 7, these incremental improvements are depicted as a stairway. The longer a value stream is improved in such a way, the smaller the improvement steps are usually getting. By no longer than in the case of missing defined target values, it is useful to break out of this behavior. Another»big step«is necessary again, and the value stream has to be transferred back to phase 2 again. Ideal-typically, the performance of a process respectively a value stream stabilizes after reaching a new performance level. Nevertheless, a decline from this performance level is the reality. Phase 3 and the transition to phase 4 are acting against this natural decline. By feeding a small amount of energy the value stream is at least stabilized on the performance level or even improved by incremental steps. Therefore, this systematisation based on phase 3, together with its interplay of phase 4, describes the way of using VSM for incremental improvements. Phase 4 of the Process Life Cycle has a special meaning for the development of a value stream no matter if there are small steps or innovation leaps. The actual performance data of the value streams and current information concerning the organization and the circumstances are collected for the Process Management reviews. Thus, makes the information is provided for the PTM and PJF as well. Process Management reviews help to make the performance level of value streams assessable and controllable. They provide the basis to decide if a re-design of a value stream is necessary. The process monitoring activities, that are performed in phase 4 of the Process Life Cycle, are delivering the data basis for the decision whether the value stream has to be redefined or not. The relevant data and performance indicators as well as actual problems in the daily life of the value stream have to be prepared and edited before a PJF takes place. In a PJF, the decision of sending a process»back«into phase 2, is made. Alternatively small adaptations may be sufficient, and the value stream is just going back to phase 3 and is going to be changed continuously in incremental steps. This swinging back and forth between different states of a Process Life Cycle also represents the connection between innovation and continuous improvement steps (see Fig.7).

18 The systematisation of VSM leads to an enlargement of the 4-Step approach of VSM and is shown in Figure 8. The advantages of this combination are that incremental improvements, thus aspects of process efficiency, are merged with aspects of process effectiveness for greater improvements. VSM provides a more detailed data base of process metrics, e.g. operating times and lead times. It s classical point in time focus is transferred to a period of time application and its focus is widened from a single process to a multi process view. The combination leads also to a more systematic analysis of interfaces in processes.

The result of this theoretically based research is to firmly establish VSM, known for its quick and easy application, as part of the improvement routines of a in the Germanspeaking world well-known and scientifically accepted approach to establish PcM Systems. The systematically embedding of VSM into a PcM System was developed and specified. It provides a solid base for international scientific discourse and relevance tests in practical applications. This approach for the systematical and recurring application of VSM is being tested simultaneously in applied research projects. no PTM/ 4SM PJF yes Process Management Reviews 8 REFERENCES [1], [2], [7] [2], [13] [2], [8] [2], [9] [2], [10] Rother, M.; Shook J.: LEARNING TO SEE (Sehen lernen, mit Wertstromdesign die Wertschöpfung erhöhen und Verschwendung beseitigen, Version 1.2, Lean Management Institut Aachen, Aachen, 2006; p. 29, p.9 Wiegand B.; Franck P.: Lean Administration 1: So werden Geschäftsprozesse transparent, Version 2.0, Lean Management Institut, Aachen, 2006; p.34 Erlach, K.: Wertstromdesign Der Weg zur schlanken Fabrik, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2007; p.36, p. 10, p.92, p ; Klevers, T.: Wertstrom-Mapping und Wertstrom- Design : Verschwendung vermeiden - Wertschöpfung steigern, Landsberg am Lech : mi- Fachverl., Redline, 2007; p.30, Duggan, K.
