Most lean manufacturing simulation
games fail to meet
expectations... we guarantee that our simulation
game will exceed your expectation or
you'll get a full refund.
The Time To Get Lean and
Then Get Leaner... Is Now
A while back, the Aberdeen Group, published their “Lean Benchmark Report.” Of close to 300 manufacturers that participate in this study, 90% reported that they are committed to Lean. However, further analysis found that less than 20% of these companies can be considered best-in-class.
Why Most Lean Initiatives Fail to Meet Expectations
The primary reason for a lean initiative failure is not enough training. It's not an "add water and stir" initiative. You can't just decide one day to become lean and think it will happen overnight. You need to determine what constraints are impeding your ability to increase speed, improve quality, and eliminate non-value-added activities. And, then you need to develop and implement Kaizen events for identifying and eliminating their root causes.
It's time to wake up to reality and participative
game are providing the wake up call. Simulating sequential production and point-of-use logistics can transform MRP supporters into lean advocates and champions. Its methodology has proven to help manufacturing companies decrease cycle times, improve on-time deliveries, decrease operating costs and improve customer satisfaction. Companies that understand how to integrate LEAN into their manufacturing systems consistently outperform their com-
petitors. "Lean manufacturing simulation
game" add pizzazz and effectiveness to a company's training program and gain company-wide commitment and support of their lean manufacturing initiative.
What Manufacturing Leaders and
Their Teams Need to Understand and Master
* How to convert a "push" into a "pull" manufacturing systems
* How to eliminate shop floor chaos and workplace stress
* How to introduce and apply demand flow technology
* The power of sequential production and point-of-use logistics
* How to move from "firefighting" to proactive problem solving
* How to implement a sustainable, lean manufacturing initiative
* How to reduce scrap, rework and work-in-process inventory
* How to
think-outside-the-box... creative
thinking at its best.
The Lean Manufacturing
Simulation Game-Plus
Finally, a training package
that
transforms MRP
supporters into lean advocates and champions.
Bill Gaw's Lean Manufacturing Simulation
Game compares batch or push production (MRP) techniques to one piece pull production (LEAN) using sequential production and point-of-use methodology. It shows how quality and productivity improve while reducing WIP inventory, scrap, rework, and floor space. The
game has been designed for 6-12 participants with unlimited observers. It is based upon each participant taking an active role in running a production line where ‘real’ products are manufactured.
Who Needs it?
* Manufacturers that need to increase their competitive edge
* Organizations dissatisfied with their lean initiative results
* Individuals responsible for lean initiative success
* Manufacturers and Individuals in pursuit of growth and earning
* Consultants that present lean manufacturing seminars
* Academia Lean Manufacturing training specialists

One of our customer saying it better than we can:
"Your manufacturing training materials are the easiest and fastest way to understand
the practicalities of lean manufacturing that I have seen in
many years of management consulting activity. I intend to use them
in my practice, if you are agreeable, since I am now extending into
new consulting areas."

Action-Learning Featuring:
MRP and LEAN simulation exercises
The Popular Lean-LEGO Tower Game
What I hear... I forget,
What I see... I remember,
What I do ... I understand
Detailed instructionsthat describe how each exercise is set up and carried out. Also instructions on what non-participants should be watching and recording for the "after
game forum."
Hands-on participation by teams that will setup MRP and lean production factory simulations for comparing the effectiveness of two distinct production
methods:
Game Process Synopsis
Active participation for 6 to 12 people with sideline observation note taking by up to 20 observers.
Teams build 20 Lego Towers
in two configurations from 320
multi-colored LEGO Bricks. A
timer records the cycle
times and observers record
pros and cons of the two
methodology (MRP and LEAN).
MRP (Push) simulation includes stockroom, shop order picking and subassembly production. Time to complete:
25-45 minutes depending on team skill level.
LEAN (Pull) manufacturing simulation sets up a "one- piece" flow production line using JIT and kanbans. Time to complete:
15-25 minutes depending on team skill level.
A most important 30 to
60 minute, post-forum
initiates a discussion of
the pros and cons of each
methodology.
This is where the learning
process takes hold.
The Lean Manufacturing Simulation
Game will clearly demonstrate the complexity of shop floor control under a standard MRP (Push) production system. The opening of shop orders, picking of parts, building of assemblies and the final product production process are carried out in real-time.
The Lean Manufacturing Simulation
Game is a demonstration of how sequential production and point-of-use logistics can turn a marginally successful product line into a huge winners.
Cycle Time Management is demonstrated and recorded, pros and cons of each methodology recorded and a post exercise forum drive home the lean manufacturing paradigm.
Simulation Exercises
are easy
to set up and facilitate. Detailed
instructions for each are included
for each of the exercises.
