Optimizing Production Flow through Value Stream Mapping PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 155-slide Lean - An Introduction to Lean Management PowerPoint presentation, presents a detailed overview of value stream mapping, specifically focusing on Kaizen events, also referred to as “bursts.” It outlines the flow of materials and information from the raw material supplier to the customer, emphasizing critical processes involved in production and shipping.

Starting from the top, the slide indicates a six-week forecast that drives production planning and scheduling. It highlights the importance of Kanban scheduling, which is crucial for managing inventory and ensuring timely production. The segment labeled "Cutting" shows key metrics such as cycle time (C.T.), changeover (C.O.), and uptime, which are essential for assessing operational efficiency. Notably, the cutting process has a cycle time of 1.5 seconds and a 75% uptime, indicating areas for potential improvement.

Moving to the "Printing" section, the slide notes a cycle time of 2.5 seconds with a 95% uptime, suggesting a highly efficient process. However, the changeover time of 65 minutes indicates a bottleneck that may require focused Kaizen efforts to reduce. The "Binding" process follows, with its own metrics, including a cycle time of 4.0 seconds and a 55% uptime, further illustrating the need for continuous improvement in this area.

The slide concludes with the shipping process, which has a cycle time of 2.0 days. The overall flow is designed to meet customer demands, with a daily order of 7,500 pieces, split between red and green items. This structured approach to value stream mapping highlights the interconnectedness of various processes and the importance of ongoing improvements to enhance efficiency and responsiveness to customer needs.
