Definition of Lean
Quick history:
• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v2KN8CCfu_E
• https://sixsigmastudyguide.com/history-of-lean/
Definition
• Lean is a methodology that focuses on minimizing waste within a business or process while working to
maximize quality and productivity.
• Define value
• Map the value stream
• Create flow
• Establish a pull system
• Pursue perfection (continuous improvement)

Value vs Waste
*As a customer, define what value means to you (raise hands)
Value
• Anything the customer is willing to pay for.
• Process: must change the form or function of the product or service.
Waste (aka Non-Value Add)
• Any expense or effort that is expended but which does not transform raw materials into an item the customer
is willing to pay for.
• Essential waste is any waste that cannot be removed from the process. It must be done, but the customer
doesn’t value it.
The goal in lean is to eliminate as much waste as possible. So, how do we do that?

Understanding the types of waste
*Give me examples of waste in your processes. (chat)
The 8 Wastes of Lean
• Defects - Products or services that are not acceptable to the customer.
• Overproduction - Making products faster, sooner, or in greater number than needed.
• Waiting - Employees waiting for products to be worked on or for information to be processed.
• Transportation - Transportation as a waste means that products are moved from Point A to Point B without
adding any value.
• Inventory - Materials, information, work in process and finished goods that are not stocked and supplied in
the most efficient way possible.
• Motion - Wasted movement that does not add value.
• Extra processing - Doing more steps than required within a process or more than what customers will pay
for.
• Non-utilized talent - Not using everyone’s talent to solve challenges, or even worse, not consulting them at
all.

Value Stream Maps
Value stream mapping (VSM) is a visual lean tool that utilizes a standardized flowchart documenting system to
capture every step in the lifecycle of a process. It is a fundamental tool to identify value, waste, ownership,
and implement process improvement.
The map enables a team to:
1. Analyze the current state.
2. Identify waste and problems.
3. Design the future state to eliminate waste.
4. Work through change management.
5. Measure changes and adjust.
6. Hold everyone accountable.

Six Sigma
Six Sigma is a lean methodology that focuses on the reduction of variability to increase quality and productivity.
Six Sigma is rooted in a quantitative set of tools to drive process improvement. Such tools include statistical
process control (SPC), control charts, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), and process mapping. The
intent is that decisions are made using verifiable data and statistics, rather than assumptions.
Creating consistency and reliability within the business, which builds quality, efficiency, and trust.
Sig Sigma uses the DMAIC process
• Define
• Measure
• Analyze
• Improve
• Control

Six Sigma
Six Sigma is highly dependent on math and data. A six sigma process is one in which 99.999% (often called 5
9’s reliability) of all opportunities to produce something is statistically expected to be free of defects.
What does 5 9’s reliability look like? It means 5.25 minutes of downtime per year, or 3.4 defects in a million
opportunities.
*What types of business require Six Sigma quality? (chat) What products or services does your company
produce that meets that? Which ones do not?

Quick Response Manufacturing (QRM)
Summary: Manufacturing approach focused on reduction of wait time within internal and external lead times.
1. Time has value
2. Org Structure
3. System Dynamics
4. Must be Enterprise-Wide
Principles can apply to the office in the form of a Quick Response Office Cell

13
Quick Response Office Cell (Q-ROC)
Example: Server Manufacturing – Standard Product Line
Traditional Linear Release Process = 12 weeks
Departments Involved:
• Customer Service
• Purchasing
• Project Management
• Design Engineering
• Materials/Inventory Management
• Manufacturing Engineering
• Production
Customer wants a quick time to market on slight modifications.

Quick Response Office Cell (Q-ROC)
Example: Server Manufacturing – Modification to Standard
3 team members cross trained in all processes.
Team members rotate roles (PM, Engineer, Operations)
Co-located in the same "Office Cell"
Q-ROC Release Process = 2-3 weeks
Goal/Metric = 10 business days or less
Departments Involved:
• Q-ROC
• Production

5S
Originated from "Just in Time" manufacturing concepts developed in Japan.
• Sort (seiri)
• Remove any unnecessary items from the workspace
• Set in Order (seiton)
• Optimize placement of needed items for optimal efficiency
• Shine (seiso)
• Sweeping, cleaning and inspecting tools or machines consistently
• Standardize (seiketsu)
• Establish expectations and metrics for the prior 3.
• Sustain (shitsuke)
• Training, reinforcement of expectations and celebrate success

5S
The spirit of 5S is “a place for everything, and everything in its place”.
What areas of your business (or home) do you think could use some 5S?

Nominal Group Technique
When trying to solve a problem, especially a complex one, there is a set of tools
that when brought together make a powerful process that can draw out ideas,
create natural groupings, and determine the best solution options. The more
cross functional the team involved, the more successful this process is.
4 Step Process:
1. Brainstorming (Ideation)
1. A means to draw out both problems and solution ideas from the team.
2. A freethinking process intended to get outside the norms to discover
“how might we” define and solve a problem.
3. Team members briefly present their ideas to group with a small amount
of time allotted for clarification.
2. Affinity Diagram (grouping)
1. A team-oriented process of finding natural groups and relationships of
the brainstorming info.

Nominal Group Technique
3. Decision Making (impact analysis, ranking, and voting)
1. This process uses the information from the Affinity
Diagram and steps through a simple analysis to
understand things like probability, risks, how
solving the problem might positively impact the
business, and how much effort it will take. Then
then team can rank the solutions and vote on
which actions to move forward with.
4. Execution
1. Now the team can use whatever project
management techniques they are familiar with to
execute the actions, along with measuring the
results over time and reporting with some regular
frequency back to the team and leadership.
Learn it. Lead it. Live it.

Kaizen - Definition
改善 *What does Kaizen mean? (chat)
Change – Good
Lean tool used for continuous improvement and waste elimination.
“Change can be threatening when done to us, but exhilarating when done by us.”

Kaizen Event - Definition
A kaizen is a highly focused event aimed at producing a step-
function process or performance improvement in a short
amount of time, in a narrowly targeted area.

Kaizen Event – The Spirit of Kaizen
1. Applies almost anywhere.
1. *Building a Deck analogy.
2. Kaizen example.
2. Make an improvement in a short amount of time and make your world better
now!
3. Team oriented

Kaizen Event – Team Rules
The following team rules are a best practice guideline and can be adjusted as necessary for each
event. In some cases, the team rules can be created by the team themselves with guidance from
the leader.
• Titles are checked at the door
• Participation is required
• Be honest and respectful
• There are no stupid questions
• Be on time
• Complete the kaizen goals!
• Have fun!
• Or else!

Kaizen Event - Phases
There are 5 phases to running a successful kaizen event:
1. Charter (Evaluation/Approval)
2. Planning
• Plan the work…
3. The kaizen event itself
• …work the plan
4. Report out
5. Follow-up (actions and communication)
Learn it. Lead it. Live it.
