Initial Review
- We will meet with plant management to gain an understanding of the objectives and to collate all the information required to conduct our studies.
Review the plant’s performance in the following areas:
- Detailed performance of individual components on the line versus original design
- Mechanical reliability – minor breakdown
major breakdown - People performance – operational issues
skill levels - Process issues – plant/product compatibility
performance measures
standards - Non-productive time – size changes
maintenance slots
start-ups
Present Findings
- Present documented evidence of performance and recommended solutions
Improvement Activities
- Develop performance measures for improvement areas
- Set up teams to work on specific projects – machine-specific issues
maintenance systems
Non-productive time - Develop training programmes covering: – problem-solving techniques
quick size change techniques
machine operation - Prepare detailed design and project costs for machine modifications or upgrades where identified
Final Review
- Review benefits versus original objectives
