Lean Tools PDSA (Plan, Do, Study, Act) A3 Rapid Improvement Event (Kaizen Event) Value Stream Mapping 2P/3P (Process, Preparation, Production) 5S (Sort, Scrub, Straighten, Safety, Standardize, Sustain) Strategy Deployment 18
A3/PDSA thinking Background Why are you talking about it? Tell the story Current Situation Where do we stand? Goal Analysis What s the problem? Where we need to be? What is the specific change you want to accomplish now? - What is the root cause(s) of the problem? - What requirements, constraints and alternatives need to be considered? Recommendations/Experiments What is your proposed countermeasure(s)? How will you know it is working? Plan What activities will be required for implementation and who will be responsible for what and when? Follow-up/Study/Adjust How we will know if the actions have the impact needed? What remaining issues can be anticipated?
What is a Rapid Improvement Event? A two to five day focused improvement activity It has aggressive, measurable objectives Emphasis on the elimination of unnecessary non value-adding activities Rapid Implementation (during the event) Anticipate the work to really begin after the event followup and sustainment
Value Stream Mapping 2-4 day process to create a future state picture and action plan to create breakthrough and fundamentally change how we perform a process Starts with the customer and their requirements Includes understanding the flow of the product being transformed as well as the flow of information Identifies key problems to be worked 21
2P (Process, Preparation) 2P in Healthcare: Utilizes the current known methods and constructs/organizes them in the least waste way to create performance in defined objectives New Facility Process change or re-location New product or service development or introduction Major capacity rate change Chronic problems/process not meeting targets New Equipment: Process & Layout 22

Leadership The Key to Lean 25
We have been trying to add Toyota Production System practices and principles on top of our existing management thinking and practice without adjusting that thinking and practice. Mike Rother from Toyota Kata 26
Culture is an idea arising from experience. That is, our idea of the culture of a place or organization is a result of what we experience there. In this way, a company s culture is a result of its management system culture is critical, and to change it, you have to change your management system. Creating a Lean Culture by David Mann 27
Jim Womack Lean Enterprise Institute: ThedaCare visit 5/9/08 All processes have a desperate desire to head toward chaos, to get worse fast, and the only thing standing in the way is management. Who is responsible for this process with their team?
Leadership In Lean Lean is much more about transforming the way we lead than any tool. Paradigm shift: leader as a teacher of problem solving instead of solving problems 29

Lessons Learned Adopting lean means adopting a new way of leading Involve customers wherever possible Communicate early and often to line staff Engage key stakeholders Teach people to fish don t just give them the fish (ask questions, don t give answers) Once you ve implemented a change, you ve only just begun (you re only at the D in PDSA) Don t underestimate the pull of process to go back to their original state, regardless of how great the new process seems 41

Where can you get help? Learn from each other! Go and See! Get your hands dirty! 53
Caution when going to see Lean is not about other peoples solutions Focus on how they are leading through the process and on the methods used to create the solutions 54
1. Identify the crisis 2. Create a lean promotion office 3. Find change agents 4. Map your value streams 5. Engage senior leaders early in strategy deployment 6. Acquire and disperse knowledge broadly 7. Teach a man to fish 8. Involve suppliers in lead 9. Restructure your organization into product families 55
