2. Lean: LEAN provides a different way of looking at our operations. The aim of LEAN is to reduce our cost base and increase our customer service levels by eliminating non-value added activities. LEAN is a set of principles that requires: Standardized work Visual controls Clean work environment Continuous improvement Associate involvement

Provide the new associate a general overview of LEAN. Lean is derived from the Toyota Production System and is driven by associate involvement, we want your input of how we can work better.
Today we are going to be learning about what the principles of lean are. They are designed to identify value-added versus non value-added steps while eliminating waste in a continuous process. A more succinct approach – it is direct and to the point
Must focus on the steps of a process versus the people within a process: It is important that when looking at the steps that you don’t forget about the entire process and sub-optimize An efficient Supply Chain is one that optimizes the movement of goods and information from the supplier’s suppliers to the customer’s customer. (internal and external) Before showing next slide , ask, “so what have you heard about lean from other employees, companies or in the press?” Record the responses on a flipchart. Likely responses include: It is all about getting rid of people – remind them of the prior slide that talks about a focus on the process not the people It is the current fad in business, and this too shall pass It only works for Japan It only works for automotive companies
There are three basic enemies of Lean - Waste, Inflexibility, and Variability. Waste in general is interpreted as non-value added activities. The acronym is TIMWOOD, which is extra steps in completing a task. Inflexibility in general is interpreted as being set in one’s way and resistant to change Variability in general is interpreted as peaks and valleys, working overtime one week and leaving early the next Lean develops an environment to identify these areas and reduce or eliminate them from our daily lives.
This slide explains why we are starting with 5S first.

As we commented at the start of today’s session……………..
Why are visual controls important? Visual Controls: Provide the ability to determine “status at a glance” No need to refer to computer or handwritten reports No need to ask others for status Make abnormal conditions obvious
Cross-functional – why is this important? Helps remove the bias Adds creativity to the group Promotes the 5 Y’s
The SPIN process is a collaborative process between management and the associates identifying safer and more efficient ways to operate on a daily basis. Explain each letter of SPIN
Let’s have some fun and walk through some issues
Does this classify as a SPIN process? YES Problem: Product is profiled in the wrong area driving up my distance to pick orders and affecting my productivity and my pay. Implication:
Each site should look to implementing Lean Captains in their site. The team should include people from different areas of the facility across all shifts that would fit the Lean Captain characteristics Floor liaison to LEAN Assists in identifying and documenting SPIN ideas Votes on priorities of SPIN prospects Is a leader in implementing SPIN strategies Assists management staff in relating LEAN to daily duties Audits areas for 5S sustainment
It takes all of us working together to achieve our goal. Your input and support are keys to our success!
