Description

★ Deploy the Lean Manufacturing to significantly improve the operational efficiency of your Production System: reducing wastes and maximizing profits. This approach is particularly effective in this current period of economic crisis. This will give you a strong competitive advantage.

★ This application allows you to:
- deploy the Lean Manufacturing: tool by tool, site by site, by a business approach,
- continuously treat the production data on the workplace, in collaboration with operators.

★ Deploy the Lean Manufacturing around 4 pillars:
- 5S,
- visual management,
- standardization of operations,
- production leveling.

★ The “how to” part consists of practical explanations, illustrated by drawings:
- Determine where you should start the continuous improvement approach
- Make the work environment cleaner and safer
- Develop communication tools through a visual management
- Calculate the time really available for manufacture
- Learn to identify and eliminate waste of Value Added
- Adjust the production cycle on the need of customer through Takt time
- Assign resources strictly necessary for manufacture
- Build a Kanbans schedule to manage workflow
- Sustain Lean through a structured approach

★ Calculate easily major indicators of Lean: Required Time, Net Time, Fully Productive Time, Availability Rate, Quality rate, OEE Overall Equipment Effectiveness, Average Daily Demand, Takt time, Resources, Kanban.

★ Send data (collected and calculated) by email.

★ No particular knowledge is required to use this application:
- <b>Lean beginners</b> will appreciate: road map to self deploy Lean, topics that may be read independently, explanations with lot of drawings, calculators for main Lean indicators, send questions to authors;
- <b>Lean experts</b> will appreciate: materials to use on workplace, concrete examples.
