Finally a powerful, MRP-LEAN, manufacturing transformation seminar that transforms MRP supporters into MRP-LEAN advocates and champions.

Transforming MRP supporters into MRP-LEAN manufacturing cham-pions is a company's primary challenge in implementing and optimiz-ing their MRP-LEAN manufacturing transformation.

To meet this challenge, Enrique Mora and I have developed a 1-Day,
At-Your-Site Seminar, "MRP-LEAN Manufacturing Transformation." The seminar present three of our most effective MRP-LEAN champion training tools:

1. Stockless Production Video
This is the famous "Oldie but Goodie" HP video that demonstrates the Pull (LEAN) vs. Push (MRP) production systems, It helps everyone gain an understanding of lean manufacturing benefits (Like work becomes fun again)

2. The Manufacturing Simulation Game
Participative exercises that demonstrate the benefits of Pull (LEAN) production over Push (MRP) production. The game employs sequen-tial production, kanban and point-of-use inventory and demonstrates how quality, cycle times, and productivity improve while reducing inventory, scrap, rework, and floor space requirements.

  


Game Process Synopsis 

Active participation for 6 to 12 people with sideline observation note taking by up to 20 observers.

Team builds 20 Lego Towers of two configurations, 6 MRP subassemblies... from 320 LEGO Bricks.

MRP (Push) simulation includes stockroom, shop order picking and subassembly production. Time to complete: 15-45 minutes depending on team skill level.

Lean manufacturing simulation sets up a "one- piece" flow production line using JIT and kanbans. Time to complete: 5-10 minutes depending on team skill level.

A post-forum review initiates a discussion of the pros and cons of each methodology.

 


3. A Trio of Training Modules
To help reinforce MRP-LEAN manufacturing transformation best practices:

Lean Manufacturing Training Module - How to to increase speed, improve quality and eliminate non-value-added activities and costs by transforming a MRP (Push) system into a LEAN (Pull) System.

Value Stream Mapping Training Module - How to analyze business processes, identify and constraints and map improvements that improve customer satisfaction.

Kaizen Management Training Module -  How to plan, implement and improve a company's continuous improve-ment program.


Your 1-Day, At-Your-Site,  MRP-LEAN
Manufacturing Transformation Seminar


 

MRP-LEAN champions provide the leadership required to plan, implement, and sustain a company's MRP-LEAN manufacturing initiative. Your "MRP-LEAN Manufacturing Transformation" Seminar would transfer lean manufacturing knowledge, implementation "Know how," and the motivation required for developing your MRP-LEAN manufacturing champions.

Subject Covered:

Information Integrity: Knowledge Transfer: How to gain control of database and record accuracy – a key requisite to optimizing manufacturing performance through SDCA Cycles.

Performance Measurement: Knowledge Transfer: How to develop a performance scorecard that will stimulate innovation and increase the participation and contribution of all employees.

Sequential Production: Knowledge Transfer: The why and how  leading OEM manufacturers stay focused on Cells, Line Flow and the Five Ss.

Point-of-Use Logistics: Knowledge Transfer: How to initiate and/or improve a JIT supply chain development program – a key to getting the right materials to the right place at the right time.

Cycle Time Management: Knowledge Transfer: An understanding of the important roll that team dynamics, TQC and TPM must play if cycle time management is to produce significant improvements in speed, quality and customer responsiveness.

Production Linearity: Knowledge Transfer: We educate our clients in root cause  analysis and the PDCA Cycle that achieve linear production.
