Why are we here?
• Lean concepts starting to be noticed in the
  software world
• But not everyone has had contact with Lean
  principles and practices

Lean?
• Toyota Production System
  – Revolutionized manufacturing (Ford vs. Toyota)
  – Started to be applied to different areas
    •   Google, Dell, Zara, …
    •   Product Development
    •   Supply Chain Management
    •   Software

Hands On – 1st Step
• Let’s simulate a production line…



  Task 1      Task 2          Task 3             Task 4     Sell house



• 4 Teams                                • Follow the instructions
• 4 rounds of 40 seconds                 • Build houses
                                         • 1 Piece = $ 1.00
                                         • 1 House = $ 25.00

Waste
• Visible Inventory
• Over/Under Production




                    © ThoughtWorks 2008
7 Wastes of Manufacturing
•   Overproduction
•   Waiting
•   Unnecessary Transportation
•   Overprocessing
•   Inventory
•   Motion
•   Defects

Push and Pull Systems
• Push System – upstream information

    Expected          Mass                Economies
    Demand         Production              of Scale

                     © ThoughtWorks 2008
Kanban
•   Physical device
•   Signals demand to downstream processes
•   Regulates demand on a pull system
•   Limits Work in Process (WIP)
•   Aids visual control
•   Self-directing

Process A




            Idle                                               Working
                   Buffer   Full




                             © ThoughtWorks 2008
Hands On – 2nd Step
• Using Pull and Kanban
  – Setup minimum buffers at intermediate steps
  – Demand comes first
  – Items are produced to fill gaps in the buffers


 Sell house   Task 4        Task 3             Task 2   Task 1



• 4 rounds of 40 seconds

Unleveled Process
•   Another type of waste
•   Some people working more than others
•   Mura (Unevenness)
•   Heijunka




                      © ThoughtWorks 2008
Flow
•   Final goal is a leveled process
•   Production line must be a continuous flow
•   One piece is bought when one piece is delivered
•   Sustainable pace




                       © ThoughtWorks 2008
Systems Thinking
• Why does it still feel wrong?
• What are the other teams
  doing?
• What’s the purpose of the
  system?

Let’s Experiment
• Do we need 4 teams to build a house?
• Teams 1 and 2 have overlapping tasks




                    © ThoughtWorks 2008
Yatai (Work Cell)
• Multi-skilled worker
• Single piece flow




                         © ThoughtWorks 2008
Hands On – 3rd Step
• Using Work Cells
  – Each person builds a house
  – Round of 160 seconds
  – Signal (raise your hand) if you finish your house



            Sell house                         Build!

Hands On – 4th Step
                            • Discuss your own
                              process
Team   Team                 • 1 round for each

Is That All?
• We saw some of the practices
• Practices are contextual
• Underlying principles must be understood
  – Like agile!

A management project or program                A total management philosophy
A set of tools for implementation              Focus on total customer satisfaction
A system for production floor only             An environment of teamwork and
                                               improvement

  1. 35 min
  2. Lean came with definition of waste Everything that is done but not necessary for the final productThere is one visible kind of waste now: inventory How may houses produced x 25 Pieces x 1Compare inventory accumulation with chartShow over/under production in the example Houses produced but not sold Houses demanded but not produced
  3. Overproductionproducing items when orders have not been received.Waiting People waiting to have their setup readyConveyance Unnecessary transportationOverprocessing More work than necessary Inventory Example cited beforeMotion Time lost in moving parts of the system/productDefects If in the end we have a defect in the product, everything was thrown awayIt could be argued that the work done is going to be useful in the future But how about if the market changes?
  4. PushFord: demand was not an issue. Sell everything that is produced. Goal: maximize productionEver cheaper labour, ever faster machines  ran out of both
  5. TaiichiOhno went to the US to study the cars industry, and said that wanted an industry that worked like an american supermarket
  6. PullSupermarketProduce based on demandNeed a way to signalize when more work has to be done
  7. You need somehow to signalize that more work is needed
  8. 55 minExplain how the process should work
  9. Break after retrospective
  10. One solution: balance number of people based on constraints
  11. Video: Production line of BoingBalance people based on constraintWhat’s the ideal scenario?
  12. 1:55
  13. Discussao sobre como modificar o processo
  14. 2:30
  15. On a practice level Pull system/Kanban (Later section)On a principle level Challenging status quo Inspect quality in Competing against yourself Empowering people
  16. Predictable and Repeatable (as in Manufacturing): Build process / Deployment processCreative / Information Flow / Create Knowledge (as in Product Development)
