Course Outline UCLA Extension Department of Engineering, Information Systems & Technical Management Course Number & Title: X 428.68 Lean Operations Course Instructor: Saeed Madjidi, BSIE, MBA Phone: (C) 310-663-8878 Fax: 310-808-1405 E-Mail: madjidi@cmtc.com Course Catalog Description: Lean has proven itself in many different manufacturing and service industries to be the dynamic leap in production efficiency needed to excel and survive in the world marketplace. The fundamental principle of Lean is the continuous recognition and elimination of waste in operations and reducing time from order to delivery while maintaining or improving product quality. This course focuses on gaining an understanding of Lean principles, practices, and techniques from both a technical standpoint and the people perspective needed to effect the change and sustain the improvement. Emphasis will be placed on developing the individual skills needed to become a Lean thinker and champion and on building a roadmap for transitioning your organization from its current state to one of being a Lean operation. Classroom sessions will include exercises designed to simulate real world applications to clarify concepts and techniques. Prerequisite: Experience in a manufacturing or service organization and a strong desire and commitment to learn Lean to improve its performance. Location & Meeting Times Wood Land Hills - Northrop Grumman Thursday, October 4th thru December 13 2012, 5:30-9:00 P.M Course Goals and Objectives: Participants will learn to: Discuss the basic principles of Lean operations Explain and demonstrate Lean tools and techniques Identify waste in production systems Map a current and future state value stream 1
Develop a Continuous Improvement (CI) plan for an existing operation Identify steps necessary to implement a Lean system Facilitate teams in making the change to the Lean culture Course Major Topics: Short History of the Industrial Revolution (How we became this way.) What is Lean Manufacturing? What is Waste? The Eight Wastes. What is Value-added Vs. Non Value Added?

mastery of the subject matter; B work is of superlative quality showing thorough competence in the subject area, approaching brilliance; C work is well above simply acceptable, going beyond standards, but not striking quality; D work is minimally acceptable, satisfying the stated objectives; F work is unacceptable without satisfying the stated objectives. Final Grade Composition (Approximately): Attendance/Participation 20% Project 30% Mid term Exam 20% Final Exam 30% TOTAL 100% Overall Course Grading Points as a Percentage: Course Standards 90 to 100 = A 80 to 89 = B 70 to 79 = C 60 to 69 = D Below 50 = F The University of California Adult Teaching/Learning Model specifies that in preparation for every course, students will satisfy all prerequisites. During the course itself, all students achieve certain outcomes. All performance assessment depends upon the accomplishment of these outcomes. Students are graded on achievement rather than effort. It is the responsibility of the student to come to class prepared to participate. The University trusts each student to maintain high standards of honesty and ethical behavior. All assignments submitted in fulfillment of course requirements must be the student s own work. All assignments except those designated as group is meant to be individual efforts. Group efforts are meant to be equal efforts by all group members. It is assumed that all students will perform professionally in preparing work required for this class. All assignments must be submitted by their due dates. Late papers will only be accepted when approval is obtained from the instructor prior to the due date. Students are expected to attend all sessions and arrive for class promptly. Students are allowed two absences during each course. Session-By-Session Outline: Topics 10-04 Introduction to the Course.
