Introduction to Operations management

Toyota Production System

The objective– Continuous improvement of the production

system (Kaizen)

Introduction to Operations management

Toyota Production System

Elements of the Toyota System– Just-in-time

» needed units arrived at the right time in the right amount

– Kanban system» a pull system with tight limit on work-in-process

inventory

Introduction to Operations management

JIT/Lean Production

Just-in-time: Repetitive production system in which processing and movement of materials and goods occur just as they are needed, usually in small batches

JIT is characteristic of lean production systems

JIT operates with very little “fat”

5

Introduction to Operations management

JIT Goals

Eliminate disruptions Make system flexible Reduce setup and lead times Minimize inventory Eliminate waste

6

Introduction to Operations management

Sources of Waste

Waste form overproduction Waste of waiting time Transportation waste Inventory waste Processing waste Waste of motion Waste from product defects

JIT Building Blocks

planning and control

8

Introduction to Operations management

Building block - Product Design

Standard parts Modular design Quality

9

Introduction to Operations management

Building block - Process Design

Small lot sizes Setup time reduction Manufacturing cells Limited work in process Quality improvement Production flexibility Little inventory storage

10

Introduction to Operations management

Benefits of Small Lot Sizes

Reduces inventory

Less storage space

Less rework

Problems are more apparent

Increases product flexibility

Easier to balance operations

Introduction to Operations management

JIT - Variability reduction

Reduction in safety stock

Safety Stock = ROP - = z

13

Introduction to Operations management

Building block - Production Flexibility

Reduce downtime by reducing changeover time

Use preventive maintenance to reduce breakdowns

Cross-train workers to help clear bottlenecks

Reserve capacity for important customers

Building block - Personnel/Organizational Elements

Workers as assets Cross-trained workers Continuous improvement Cost accounting Leadership/project management

16

Introduction to Operations management

Building Block - Manufacturing Planning and Control

Level loading Pull systems Visual systems Close vendor relationships Reduced transaction processing

17

Introduction to Operations management

Pull/Push Systems

Pull system: System for moving work where a workstation pulls output from the preceding station as needed. (e.g. Kanban)

Push system: System for moving work where output is pushed to the next station as it is completed

18

Introduction to Operations management

Kanban Production Control System

Kanban is the Japanese word for card. Paperless production control system Authority to pull, or produce comes

from a downstream process.

Introduction to Operations management

Benefits of JIT Systems

Reduced levels of inventories Reduced space requirements Increased product quality Reduced lead times Greater flexibility in product mix

21

Introduction to Operations management

Benefits of JIT Systems (cont’d)

Smoother production flow Increased productivity levels Worker participation in problem solving Pressure for good vendor relationships Reduced need for indirect labor

22

Introduction to Operations management

Converting to a JIT System

Get top management commitment Decide which parts need most effort Obtain support of workers Start by trying to reduce setup times Gradually convert operations Convert suppliers to JIT Prepare for obstacles

23

Introduction to Operations management

Obstacles to Conversion

Management may not be committed Workers/management may not be

cooperative Suppliers may

resist

24

Introduction to Operations management

JIT in Service

The basic goal of the demand flow technology in the service organization is to provide optimum response to the customer with the highest quality service and lowest possible cost.
