LEAN methodology
implementation in steps

 
 
 

Step 1

Process defining by SIPOC model (supplier-input-process-output-customer).

Step 2

Using VSM (Value Stream Mapping) the process is broken down into specific steps and evaluate the value of each of them:

    • With added value
    • No added value
    • No added value, but necessary for the process to take place

Step 3

Classification of wastes according to LEAN into 8 groups (transport, inventory, unnecessary movements, waiting, overproduction, overprocessing, defects).

Step 4

Eliminating activities without added value and minimizing activities necessary for the process to take place.

Step 5

Implementation of a new, and improved process

Step 6

Uspostavljanje mjerenja procesa (KPI- OEE, Lead Time, CPU, WiP...) i kontrolnih mehanizama za očuvanje novog procesa te sprječavanje povratka na staro.

Step 7

Continuous Improvement Initiatives (CI).
