What is Process?
• Process is everywhere…everything is a process• Process = a series of actions or steps taken in order
to achieve a particular end
![Page 12: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

So What is Process Excellence?
Improving the way that we create and deliver value
It’s about what we do for the customers, not to them
![Page 13: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Why Does Process Excellence Matter?
• In our industry what we provide is not the differentiator
• It’s what we do and how we do it
• We must understand and deliver what our customers need better than our competitors
• Process Excellence can help you achieve that
![Page 14: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How Does It Help Us?
• Process Excellence isn’t just about lower operating costs, it’s about aligning our organization to achieve success
• That means…– Less Complexity– More Time– Improved Service– Lower Costs
– Increased Revenue– Better Lives– And Happier Customers
Process = The work we doExcellence = The way we do it

What is a Kaizen Event?
• A Kaizen event follows the DMAIC road map
• Kaizen event(s) are a three to five day event of intense improvement activities directed at a specific area of a business
• It is a process based on improving Safety, Quality, and Delivery, by the elimination of waste in its many forms
Define Measure Analyze Improve Control

What is the Focus of a Kaizen Event?
• Kaizen events are a way of accelerating business process improvements– to enhance Safety and improve productivity – helping management to find new ways to gain savings in
time, space, and labor output – to reduce cycle times– to reduce work-in-process– to reduce scrap and defects while minimizing the need
for capital

What is the Define phase about?
In the Define Phase emphasis is on the current state:– Where the problem is occurring– Duration of the problem– What the problem is (in numbers)– What is the KPI / financial impact of the problem– What is the scope and who are the key stakeholders
• Tool application in the Define Phase– Review Charter (Understand scope, issue and benefit)– Prep for Kaizen Event (Identification of Identity flow)– Walk the Process (backwards)
![Page 23: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What Concerns Does a Project Charter Address?
• Using a simplified form of the Charter that your project is based on …
• Describe ideas in terms of a problem statement• Situation – What is the current opportunity?• Objective – How do we measure success?• Benefits – What value does it provide?• Team Members – Who should be involved?

1) Review situation and gain a solid understanding of the problem at hand to address the following concerns:
• What is Current Situation / Opportunity?
• How Do we Measure Success?
• What are the Right Metrics / Measures?
• How Do We Calculate and Capture Business Impact? (Financial Gain)
![Page 26: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Situation – Opportunity Statement
What is the current opportunity?
• In a few brief sentences explain:– What the opportunity is– How long it’s been occurring– Any specifics that narrow the scope
• Specific service• Specific shift• etc…
![Page 27: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Objective Statement
How do we measure success?
• Gain insight into our current processes– How good is it (Baseline)?– How good could it be if perfect (Entitlement)?– What is limiting it from getting better?– How can it be improved
(Closing the Gap)?– How much of the gap do
we want to close during this project (Goal)?
Reduce/optimize/increase: (project Y) from (current value) to (goal level) for (specific area) while holding constant (constraints)

Financial Assessment Statement
How do we document benefits?• This needs to be objectively defined, mathematical
description (if possible) of how to calculate the business impact ($$$$)
• This must be accepted and supported by the Controller / CFO
• If this is not defined well in the beginning of the project, you will struggling at the end to determine the financial impact
28
![Page 29: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Team Member Statement
Who should be involved in this improvement effort?• Carefully consider the Makeup of the Team
– Core (Full-Time) team members are those who will stick with the project from start to finish
– Identify experts or other specialized people you’ll need for the project as extended team members
– Ideal team size is 3-5 people– Do not forget the Process Owner and any other
Key Stakeholders!

30
What Are Some Project Review Considerations?
• Does charter state what the project is trying to accomplish, in measurable terms?
• Is the project worth doing? • What happens if the project fails?• Does it fit within Ports Americas business initiatives?• Is this a customer-oriented project?• Is it properly scoped? Boiling the ocean or right sized?• What are the specific goals of the project?• Who owns the process? • What’s the probability of success?• Can we get benchmark information? If so, where?• What resources are available in the team?• What is the actual process we are working to improve?
![Page 31: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
How is a Process really a “System”?
• What is a Process?– A series of actions, having a beginning and an end, that
are directed towards achieving an outcome– A simple model of a process
• The process changes the inputs to produce an output(s)

![Page 32: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
What are some Elements of a Process System?
Below is a list of major elements of a process system:
When the system fails, it is usually the result of one or more of these elements
• Purpose• Entities• Tasks or Activities• Sequence or Flow• Materials• Resources• Decisions• Queues• Arrivals• Duration
• Feedback• Communication• Information• Schedules
32
![Page 33: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
How do Processes Exist to Fulfill Needs?
• Questions to be Answered About Needs– What are the needs which are addressed by this
process?– Who or what created those needs?– Is this a need of the Customer or of the Business?– What constitutes successful “fulfillment”?– How do I know if my process is working right?– If you can’t define the purpose, why are you doing it?
33
![Page 34: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Steps to Garner Facts (Walk the Process)
1) Interview those who work in the process to help document the various needs / process issuesS - Enter conversation at a Social levelO - Explain the Objective of documenting the processL - Listen to what they have to sayA - Advise and AskR - Record
2) Validate the input / data3) Verify information with several sources
– Allows any oversights to be corrected
34
![Page 35: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Steps to Garner Facts (Walk the Process)
4) Starting at end (back) of the actual process, the team follows a typical flow (or tracks a service) from end to the beginning to understand need(s).
5) Map major steps in Pencil. (Don’t be too detailed)6) Start with a quick walk, to get a feel for the flow
and sequence. Then, go back and talk to the right people at each step and explore the “fulfillment” of need(s).
NOTE: Don’t map the organization, document theneeds within the organization. Address the
need(s).35

What is the Measure phase about?
The Measure phase is about understanding the current state and collecting data to establish a baseline:
– Key inputs or outputs that have a heavy influence on the process or are the result of the process
– Consideration is taken into account on how accurate and reliable the data is
• Tool application in the Measure Phase– SIPOC (scope)– Detailed Map (something flowing through process)– Data (determine overall health of a process)
![Page 37: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
General Purpose of Mapping
• Everything we do is a process… some processes are straightforward… other processes can be chaotic
• Process Mapping – Allows people to illustrate what happens in a process– Demonstrates scope of a project– Is an excellent visual aide for identifying the “hidden
process” or waste– Identifies all the potential inputs that may affect the
output– Identifies all the decision points that may impact a
transactional process

39
Steps to Create a SIPOC
1) Name the process (Use verbs/adjectives)2) Indicate the start/stop, or the scope of the process
(What are the triggers that initiate and end the process?)
3) Indicate the five to seven highest-level steps in the process as they exist today (Use verb/adjectives – how does this process operate?)
4) Indicate the output(s) of the process (Use nouns – what is it this process does?)
![Page 40: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
40
Steps to Create a SIPOC (continued)
5) Indicate the customer(s) of the process (Whom does this process affect/benefit?)
6) Indicate the input(s) of the process (Use nouns - what is needed to execute this process and deliver the outputs?)
7) Indicate the supplier(s) of the process (Which individuals/teams provide inputs into this process?)
![Page 41: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
What are some Process Mapping Pointers?
• Go to the place where the process is performed• Talk to people involved in the process and get the real facts• Observe and chart the actual process
– Reality is invariably different from perception; Few processes work the way we think they do
– The purpose of process mapping is to identify waste, not to develop the perfect process map
• Process map what is, not what you would like the process to be
• Process Mapping is dynamic, so use Post-it notes, dry erase markers, pencils, etc…
• All Process Maps must have start and stop points
![Page 42: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
42
What does Detailed Process Mapping Provide?
• A detail process map is a pictorial representation of the flow or sequence of actions that comprise a process
• It differs from the High Level Process Map previously created, in that it’s a lower level map actually detailing how the work gets done
![Page 43: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
43
What are the Different Views with Process Maps?
There are usually three views of a process:
What you THINK it is..

What are the Symbols Used to Process Map?
• Start & End: An oval is used to show the materials, information or action (inputs) to start the process or to show the results at the end (output) of the process
• Activity: A box or rectangle is used to show a task or activity performed in the process. Although multiple arrows may come into each box, usually only one arrow leaves each box
• Decision: A diamond shows those points in the process where a yes/no question is being asked or a decision is required
• Break: A small circle with either a letter or a number identifies a break in the process map and is continued elsewhere on the same page or another page / or map

What is Purpose of ‘Brown Paper’ Process Map?
• Describes in detail the process as it works today• This is the “as-is” model• Shows the big picture but, with all the details• Is high touch, low tech• Identifies strengths and opportunities• Captures the complexity and disconnects of key
operational issues• Identifies outside areas involved in the process
It’s called Brown Paper because of the color of the paper that is typically used, you can use any color paper… flip chart paper is also commonly used
![Page 46: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)

Why use Brown Paper (Kraft paper) Mapping?
• Provoke thought for improvement opportunities• Promote common understanding• Increase cross-functional learning• Train new employees• Use as a presentation
![Page 47: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47
Brown Paper Versus Flowcharts
• Brown Paper (Kraft) Mapping– Capture formal, informal and emotional processes
• Are self-explanatory• Include “live” or operational documents / forms/ procedures• Capture important data
– Quality levels– Volumes (Inputs, throughputs, outputs, backlog)– Labor hours
– Elicit high employee involvement and ownership– Highlight opportunities for improvement
• Key difference is the level of detail and the ability to add documents and data directly on the map itself

Flow versus Performance (Data Usage)
• Process mapping helps us understand process flow• Now we must collect data to more objectively evaluate
and measure process performance (metrics)• To be successful, we must meet both Customer and
Business requirements– Customer (VOC) - effectiveness measures– Business (VOB) - efficiency measures
• A good measurement system incorporates both
![Page 51: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

What is the Analyze phase about?
The Analyze phase is where the team does a deep dive on the data collected in order to determine the root cause of the problem:
– Analyze the process maps and data looking for waste an/or anything that does not add value
– Determine where the gaps are to provide biggest impact
• Tool application in the Analyze Phase– Perform Value Analysis– Complete Waste Walk– Identify Root Causes
![Page 61: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
What is Value?
• Definitions:– “Relative worth, merit,
or importance” – “Estimated or assigned
worth”– “The worth of
something in terms of the amount of other things for which it can be exchanged…”
Definitions from Dictionary.reference.com
61
![Page 62: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
What is the Definition of Value-added Work?
• Value Added– Any activity or operation performed that helps transform
a product or service– Completed right the first time– Any activity customer is prepared to pay for or activities
required to ensure that a product or service is delivered in conformance to specification
62
![Page 63: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)

65
Steps to Determine Value-Add / Non-Value Add
1. Using your process map, identify Lead times for process steps– Work Time– Wait Time– Transportation Time
2. Classify each step as Customer VA, Business VA (not value-added, but necessary) or NVA
3. Calculate the total VA to NVA Ratio– Total Customer and Business Value Added Steps– Divide by Total Time– Get % Value Add

What is a Waste Walk?
• A planned visit to where the work is being performed to observe what’s happening and to note the waste
• Objective – Validate the problems pointed out in the development of
the current-state map– Provide a format to continue to socialize the redesign
effort.– Provide an initial opportunity to gather staff ideas about
the current-state problems.
![Page 71: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
71
Steps to Conduct a Waste Walk
1) Huddle with your team members– Describe the purpose,– Describe the various forms of wastes and examples,– Pass out copies of the current-state map and identified
problems, and– Assign areas to walk to you team. It’s usually better to
have a pair of people for each assignment.
2) As a group walk the whole value stream depicted on your map to confirm the areas of the individual/pair assignments.
![Page 72: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
72
Steps to Conduct a Waste Walk (continued)
3) Explain to the people in the area of observation what you are doing.
4) Share the map and waste examples and describe the objectives of the observation activity.
5) Move to areas for individual assignments, and study the areas for 30–45 minutes.
6) As you see work that appears to be waste, jot down the example you see.
7) Return to the team and discuss what you have seen.
![Page 73: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
73
8) As a team, match the wastes you see to problems previously identified in the current-state map.
9) If other significant problems are identified during the walk, place them on the map.
10)Put the results of the waste walk next to the current-state map being shared in the area and use the examples to continue to socialize the current state and the system-level problems that frustrate the people and process.

What is the ‘5 Why’ Analysis technique ?
• Question asking technique used to explore the cause and effect relationships underlying a particular problem or situation
• Five iterations of asking why is generally sufficient to get to a root cause, but it may go as far as six or seven
![Page 75: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
Is there an Example of 5 Why’s ?
• The vehicle will not start. (problem statement)– Why? – The battery is dead– Why? – The alternator is not working– Why? – The alternator belt is broken– Why? – The belt was beyond its useful life – Why? – The vehicle was not maintained per the
recommended schedule
• Root cause appears to be the lack of scheduled maintenance… this is a process that can be improved.
![Page 76: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
76
Tips For Successfully Using 5 Why Analysis
• You know when you have gotten to the root cause when answer points to a process that is not working or does not exist.
• The root cause generally is not time, money, or manpower.
• Processes fail, not people or money, so ask the question “why did the process fail?”.
![Page 77: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
77
What is a Fishbone Diagram?
• The Fishbone diagram (or Ishikawa) is used to identify possible causes for an effect.
• Causes are grouped into major categories to identify the sources of variation through the 6M’s:– Manpower– Machines– Materials– Methods– Measurements– Mother nature [environment]
![Page 78: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
78
Why Use a Fishbone?
• Groups potential causes for defects into logical categories
• Team works together to get to root cause• Highlights where additional data gathering needs to
occur
![Page 79: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/79.jpg)
79
Step 1: Determine the Problem/Issue
• To construct a fishbone:– Start with stating the problem in the form of a question,
such as “Why is crane production low?” .– Agree on the problem and place it in a box at the “head”
of the fishbone.
Why is Crane production low?
![Page 80: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
80
Step 2: Establish the Categories
• Determine which categories you will use to find causes and draw the bones.
• Feel free to modify the categories for your project and subject matter.
• Category Examples:– 6M’s
• Manpower• Machines• Materials
• Methods• Measurements• Mother nature
[environment]
![Page 81: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/81.jpg)
81
Step 3: Brainstorm Causes
• For each category brainstorm possible causes of the problem that may be related to the problem/issue.
• For each cause identified, continue to ask “why does that happen?” and attach that information as another bone of the category branch.
![Page 82: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/82.jpg)
82
Step 4: Review Diagram
• The diagram should now show all of the possible causes of the problem that you can think of.
• Prioritize the key causes identified on the fishbone.• Agree on which of these possible causes are
actually contributing to the problem and begin to investigate those further.
![Page 83: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)

What is the Improve phase about?
The focus of the Improve phase is to implement improvements that were brainstormed and agreed to in the analyze phase.The improve phase typically involves ideas being piloted with the results being validated to ensure that no adjustments need to be made.
• Tool application in the Improve Phase– Select Improvements– Indentify Future State– Perform Risk Analysis– Pilot and Implement Solution
![Page 84: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/84.jpg)
What is Brainstorming?
• A group creativity tool used to generate a large number of ideas to solve a problem
• There are many techniques:– Round Robin: move around group in turn– Shout Out: as it comes to you– Silent: write down ideas on slip of paper– Post Up: Pin ideas / suggestions on board so all can see
and add to – good for getting inputs from different departments, the weekend crew or multi-shifts
84

What are some Idea Generation Tips?
Ideas and inspiration come from association – build on words, themes, topics:
• Use reverse thinking: how can we make this worse? then turn it around
• Ask why, then ask why again• Avoid idea assassins, eliminate the “can’t” word
from your group• Watch out for the “expertise” trap, challenge every

What are some Rules for Effective Brainstorming?
• DO– Understand the focus– Allow individuals to complete their thoughts– Record all ideas– Build on existing ideas, this is the power of
brainstorming– Strive for quantity– Organize, categorize, and evaluate LATER!

Rules for Effective Brainstorming (continued)
• DON’T– Criticize ideas (consolidation and evaluation
come later)– Use idea assassins, clarify LATER– Make judgments, verbal or visual, as ideas are
being offered– Allow any one person to dominate the session– Stop when the page is full, keep pushing for
more ideas

What are some Helpful Hints in Brainstorming?
• Save an idea or two for the session. When things slow sown, throw these ideas out to get the process going again.
• Read back ideas from the list to rekindle team energy.
• Take a Break, encourage team members to stand up and walk around or think about something else, then resume the session.
• Determine how many ideas you want to generate during the session, encourage the team to persist through lulls to reach this goal.

What are Techniques to Stimulate Insight?
• Changing patterns—unexpected juxtaposition• Looking at things in different ways—making the strange
familiar and the familiar strange• Adaptation—changing the context• Imagining—asking “What if?”• Reversal—looking for the opposite• Connection—joining two unrelated ideas• Comparison—building a metaphor• Elimination—subtracting something or breaking rules• Parody—making fun, looking for the humor

What is the Purpose of a ‘PICK’ Chart?
The purpose of the PICK Chart analysis/ activity is to decide which improvement ideas are most worthwhile (impact), based on expected benefits and ease of implementation (effort).

Steps to Use a ‘PICK’ Chart
1) Write each idea on a sticky note and place in one of the four PICK Chart boxes.
2) Decide whether each idea is hard or easy to achieve. Think in terms of hours, manpower, expertise, and other factors that make the implementation easy or difficult.
3) Choose a payoff category.– Determine if the improvement idea will result in a high or low
payoff
92
![Page 93: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/93.jpg)
Steps to Use a ‘PICK’ Chart (continued)
4) Place the sticky note with the idea written on it into the most suitable PICK Chart quadrant.– Don’t put an idea on a line between two quadrants – this only
encourages the team to avoid making a decision about the idea
5) Choose improvement ideas based on their placement on the Chart.– Possible - ideas that are easy to implement but have a low payoff– Implement - ideas that are easy to implement and a high payoff– Challenge - ideas that are hard to implement and difficult to
determine payoff– Kill - ideas that are hard to implement and have low payoff

What is a Future State Map About?
• Future State Map is next increment of performance improvement
• Helps define specific activities for Kaizen effort• Marries together mapping efforts, process
analyses, and the vision of an ideal state• Improvements you select become foundation for
your planning and improvement activities
![Page 95: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/95.jpg)
95
Steps to Develop a Future State Map
Future State begins as a markup of Current State:1) Don’t start with clean sheet, make changes directly
on the Current-State map.2) Identify where and what type of improvements you
intend to make.3) Draw “burst” at areas or steps you wish to improve.4) Identify how many / how much NVA steps will be
reduced (Red/ Yellow/ Green), and how much process time reduced – estimate improvement goal. (quantify waste reduction effort, if possible)

Steps to Develop a Future State Map (continued)
5) As soon as you have identified the changes, create a new Process Map / VSM draft.
6) Picture what the Process Map / VSM will look like after implementing the improvements.
7) Leave the Bursts for reference on the new map.

What are some Qualifying Questions to Consider?
Indicate answers directly on the future-state map:– What is the Customer demand? (takt time)– Where is the bottleneck operations?– Where can flow happen?– Where will you utilize a ‘pull’ signal? (kanban signal)– Where do supermarkets need to be located? (stores)– What is the right lot size between processes?– What are the current set-up / change over times?– How can schedule be smoothed?– How is time being utilized?

99
How Does the Kaizen Team Plan Improvements?
• Take actions identified on the Future-State Map and establish an implementation plan
• Plan should be concise• Scope individual improvement activity
– Include timing and responsibilities
• Maintain scope and focus– Address minimum number of key metrics– Don’t try to solve everything at once– Prioritize the changes– Follow through!
![Page 100: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/100.jpg)

What is Risk?
• Risk is the potential that a chosen action or activity (including the choice of inaction) will lead to an undesirable outcome.
• Common risk categories– People– Process– Cultural– Environmental– Systemic– Legal & Regulatory
![Page 101: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/101.jpg)
What is Risk Mitigation?
Risk Mitigation is about proactively eliminating sources of variation that cause defects – process based failure prevention.
• What does it do?– Helps to evaluate how a process or design can fail – Helps to quantify risk factors assisting in prioritizing
current or future changes– Can act as a forum for process or design improvements
and preventative actions– Assists in identifying weaknesses in current control plans
101
![Page 102: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/102.jpg)
When Do We consider Risk Assessment?
Risk Priority Number (RPN)• The ‘RPN’ calculation is a dynamic process:
– They can begin as soon as a project is selected for a certain process, system or design.
– First one usually started no later than Measure Phase, or beginning of the Analysis Phase.
– Should be revised as improvements or changes are made to a process to assess risk.

What are factors of a Risk Assessment Team?
• This is a team process, members should be familiar with the process.
• Team sizes may vary, but recommended size is approximately 3 - 5 members.
• Depending upon the type of analysis being done, members may come from:
• Labor• Engineering• Supervision• Customer Support• Planning / Sales / Marketing• Human Resources• Maintenance

Focus on Prevention of Errors / Defects
The Risk Priority Number (RPN) --- allows the team to quantify various failure modes to assist in prioritizing the team’s improvement efforts
The RPN is the product of: Severity x Occurrence x Detection
The higher the RPN, the higher priority the potential failure mode becomes, prevention becomes the focus of the team
NOTE: The value of each of these characteristics is determined by the team, guidelines are provided on following pages

What is Risk Assessment Need During Kaizen?
• Our main need for risk assessment is to evaluate the risk of our proposed process improvements before we put them in place.
• Risk assessment [w/ associated RPN] helps us:– Analyze new processes– Identify weaknesses in the control plan– Establish the priority of actions– Evaluate the risk of the process changes– Identify other potential areas to consider for process
improvement

What are the Characteristics of a Pilot Test?
• A pilot is a test of a selected solution• Has following properties:
– Performed on a small scale (limited in scope, budget and time)
– Used to evaluate both the solution and the implementation of the solution
– Used to make the full-scale implementation more effective
– Provides data about expected result– Exposes issues in the Implementation Plan

119
What is the Control phase about?
The focus of the Control phase is to establish how the results are going to be sustained and monitored.The control phase typically involves the creation of metrics and plans to be executed when the performance measures indicate the process is not behaving as expected.
• Tool application in the Control Phase– Demonstrate Improvement– Mistake Proof– Implement Control Plan
![Page 120: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/120.jpg)
120
What is Baseline Data?
• Initial collection of data which serves as a basis for comparison with the subsequently acquired data– Captured during the Measure Phase– Used to identify improvement opportunities during the
Analyze phase– Consists of inputs and outputs of the process
• Compare Before and After (Collect same way)
= Baseline vs. Final

121
What is Purpose of Displaying Improvement?
• Final data must be compared against the baseline data… before and after comparison– Demonstrates improvement or change within the
process in a manner that is easily understood by all– Generally done using tables and graphs that show side-
by-side the change that has taken place as a result of the project
![Page 122: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/122.jpg)

124
Why is Mistake-Proofing Important?
• Sustain the Gain!• Lean Thinking / Practice does not allow extra
inventory to compensate for scrap.• Lean ideology focuses on speed ...
And, speed cannot exist when defects and rework prevail.
• Cost pressures don’t tolerate continued mistakes: for example - scrap, rework, lateness.
“Our Customers rightfully expect defect free services / products and … traditional 100% inspection won’t provide 100% defect-free output.”

A ‘poka-yoke’ or mistake proofing device eliminates defects by preventing errors.
• poka – error (foolish action); yoke – to avoid• Replaces earlier version baka yoke (fool proofing) – a more negative
connotation

• Following process produces defects
• Change process, defects go away• Generally, easiest to change
Incorrect Process
• Process hard to follow consistently
• Process problem, not people problem

129
What are common “Red Flag” Conditions?
1. Adjustments
2. Unclear or no instructions
3. Undefined process
4. Many units/mixed units
5. Multiple steps
6. Infrequent production
7. Ineffective or lack of standards
8. Multiple handoffs
9. Hand processing

130
Steps for Mistake-proofing
1) Identify and Describe the defect/ red flag condition
2) Determine root cause (where the defect is discovered or where it is made)
3) Detail the sequence of events in the standard procedure
4) Review the steps that differ from the standard (deviations) (identify contributing conditions or potential failure modes)
5) Identify the mistake-proof device type required (S,C,W)
6) Create device(s) and test for effectiveness (incorporate into Standard Work)

131
Why the Need For Control Plans?
• Control Plans are about sustainability• Control Plans exist to ensure the process maintains
the gains seen from the project• Control Plans provide predictive information, such
that adjustments can be made before the output deviates from the plan
• Good control plans, ensure improvements stay in place
• All too often this is where the fun ceases, the real work starts
![Page 132: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/132.jpg)
132
What are some Control Plan Elements?
In preparing a control plan, concentrate on:• What needs to be monitored?• Who is going to be keeping the process functioning
properly?• How are they going to monitor?• Where will the monitoring be conducted?• Where should the plan reside?• What will be done if the monitoring detects a
condition outside of the Customer’s specifications?

133
Why an Improvement Hierarchy?
So you don’t have to “fix” the problem again!Full
Automation
Awareness
Fail-Proof
Simplification
Training
Behavior typically reverts back
The process is changed to be less dependent upon people
Most Desired
Least Desired
• No Manual Intervention
• Impossible to Fail
• Eliminate Activity
• Certification and Audits
• Notification

134
Are there Tips for a ‘Reaction’ Plan?
• Be pragmatic!• Actions should be the responsibility of people
closest to the process• Secure process owner’s approval• Document in detail, and identify the person
responsible for, reacting to unacceptable variation• Incorporate procedures by reference in the control
plan• Build control plans from the updated Risk
Assessments

135
What is the Hierarchy for Reaction Planning?
Some reactions are better than others
PREVENT Root cause identified and permanently correctedCORRECT Root cause is identified
and corrected temporarily COMPENSATE Making adjustments – without identifying root cause

137
What is Purpose of Process Documentation?
• General purpose:– Ensure compliance with relevant standards and procedures– A means for implementing a company’s objectives and policies
• General rules:– Compliance is easy to check– Employees can:
• Understand them• Understand their individual responsibilities• Respond to all situations that might arise
– Are practical and economical
![Page 138: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/138.jpg)
138
What are Attributes of Good Documentation?
• Clarity and Comprehension - Suitable for the Reader– Provides information to be used– Is not meant for enjoyment or mere learning– Read only to be able to carry out the instructions they
contain or to check that someone else is carrying them out correctly
![Page 139: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/139.jpg)
139
Attributes of Good Documentation (continued)
• Clarity and Comprehension - Suitable for the Reader– Questions to ask:
• Do they have sufficient background information to absorb the information at this point of the procedure?
• Will they retain sufficient interest at this point to keep up the required concentration?
• Is there superfluous information• Can information be found and extracted quickly?
![Page 140: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/140.jpg)
140
Attributes of Good Documentation (continued)
• Correctness– Is the information accurate and consistent?– If the documents are inaccurate, resulting in mistakes or
distrust by the employees, the basis of quality crumbles
• Structure of the Documentation Set– Structure (hierarchy, classification and sequence) is
essential for making documentation accessible– EXAMPLE: The procedures for filling a Purchase Order
can extend across Purchasing, Contracts, Accounting, Invoicing, Transport, and so on. . .
![Page 141: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/141.jpg)
141
Attributes of Good Documentation (continued)
• Compliance with Standards and Regulations– Must be able to demonstrate that the best available
practice was followed and that applicable regulations were complied with
• Suitability for Audit– Must be visible and straightforward– Auditing addresses accountability– The objectives of the procedure must be stated clearly so
that an audit can determine if they are being achieved
![Page 142: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/142.jpg)
142
What are Process Documentation concerns?
• Process Map or Flow Chart– Consider at what level to map - High, Detailed– What type of map will you use?
• Traditional Process Map, Swim Lane, VSM
• Procedures / Instructions / Planning Documents– Develop a sequence of steps and other instructions
• Who, What, Where …– Be specific, clear, realistic– Highlight potential pitfalls to performance– Note any common exceptions
• Note how to obtain or find the document
![Page 143: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/143.jpg)
143
What are some Improvement Documentation Tips?
• Use your team and / or affected individuals• Test the procedure exactly as it is documented• Be complete, but concise
– Do not assume prior knowledge
• Place the procedure where it is readily available• Outline a method for updating procedures for
continuous improvement• Date your new procedures• Removed obsolete procedures
![Page 144: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/144.jpg)
144
What are methods for Checking Procedures?
• Directly– By Observation
• Are people actually doing what the procedure says?• Are all the steps being followed?• Are people referring to the procedure?
– By asking those using the procedure• “Is each step in the procedure clear?”• “Are you having difficulty in following the
procedure?”• “Could we improve the procedure and still get
results?”
![Page 145: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/145.jpg)
145
Checking Procedures (continued)
• Indirectly– By Observation
• When was the last time the instruction was revised?• Is the Control Chart being used as a signal for
investigation?
![Page 146: Kaizen Team Primer Meeting Date Team Members. Team Launch 1)Get team together for the first time to Launch project 2)Use suggested agenda for a Kaizen.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062500/5697bf811a28abf838c85521/html5/thumbnails/146.jpg)
146
What are Common Pitfalls with New Procedures?
• Not involving affected employees in creating the new procedure
• Not testing the procedure• Omitting information - results needed or how to do
a step• Lowering the importance of procedures - either by
not having them or by management ignoring need• Putting procedures on the shelf - not tracking actual
use, regular maintenance, destroying obsolete procedures
