Lean production Organisation Production control methods LP211 Article number Most production schedulers are probably sick of hearing about inventory reductions. After all, inventory levels cannot be reduced indiscriminately without jeopardising the ability to deliver at short notice. Nonetheless, production schedulers have the great responsibility of striking a balance between ability to deliver, inventory reduction and capacity utilisation in order to achieve the optimum outcome for the company. If they can master their control process well, lead times will decrease and there will be more room for flexibility when configuring manufacturing processes. However, many production schedulers are not adequately prepared for their tasks. Often new schedulers get their initial training by looking over the shoulder of experienced employees. That can be helpful, but also means that more suitable methods of control are not considered.

Organisation Lean production Analysing and designing value streams LP161 Article number Industrial products are created in processes that divide up tasks. Significant losses frequently arise at the interfaces between these processes, that is at the boundaries between departments and areas. These losses manifest themselves in large stocks of semi-finished products, delays, quality defects and additional work spent finding, scheduling, transporting or coordinating. As a result, investigating the value added process as a whole by means of value stream mapping is indispensable as a means of improving your company s performance. The map of the current-state value stream reveals the causes of excessive inventories and long lead times, high production costs and quality problems. These should then be eliminated in a second step in which the future value stream is mapped.
