Lean on Me

The introduction and implementation of a Just-In-Time (JIT) approach to this production line would be ideal to reduce lead time, minimize inventory on floor and optimize storage area. In particular, adopting a Kanban (card) system would establish lean manufacturing principles that would help streamline the entire process. There is a current card system that is used throughout the production line to monitor the work and parts applied to the aircraft. However, it is difficult in this production…

to be on the rise with the induction of a new principle called Lean and has been very effective in Japan. Since learning of how effective this principle has been to manufacturing industries The Institute of Healthcare Improvement has taken an interest in seeing if applying the same principle throughout the system of healthcare will show the same results or have a definite impact on how health services are delivered. The reason why lean has been successful in the manufacturing industry is,…

During this midyear, I have been working toward a smooth adoption of lean principals and tools. Principals such as creating value for clients by limiting the amount of touches and rework that must be done with any of my work objects in order to see it through to complete- taking ownership of the request whenever possible. I have been striving towards improving my overall quality, with few SDQA findings. Those requests that do come back with less than perfect quality, I have been continually…

In every manufacturing industry, a streamlined workflow is considered a requisite for success. This can only be achieved by using advanced power transmission and material handling equipment. Thus, manufacturers are keen to purchase these equipment from reliable manufacturers and suppliers such as Surfrainbow. The company helps its manufacturing industry clients to streamline their workflows, as well as maximize their production efficiency by supplying industry-leading power transmission and…

From reading the article, I noticed that Lean is an administrative framework initially created as a focused system by the Toyota Motor Corporation. It was developed to be a compelling element of the present-day organization. Also, Lean works by giving an incentive to the client and then recognizing the components that boost that incentive through waste decrease, as well as work process (Rees & Gauld, 2017). For instance, a successful transformation in Lean healthcare activities is embraced by…

motivates me to always be the best presentable version of myself. However, I think it is simultaneously a bad thing because it prevents me from reaching out to people in times of trouble and confusion. I can never seek help when I am going through tough times, or if I need…

When I was a child when someone asked me, "What are you going to be when you grow up?" My answer was always, "I am going to be a nurse." When I attended college the first time, my answer became, "I 'm not sure what I want to be." Right out of high school making the decision of what you are going to do for the rest of your life is scary, so I juggled back and forth from teaching and nursing. I eventually decided to take a break for a while until I knew what I needed to do. In the process of the…

It’s a time boxed, iterative approach to software delivery that builds software incrementally and iteratively. There are many ways of following an agile approach such as Lean, and Extreme Programming but we have opted to utilise the scrum approach. 3.3 Scrum The Scrum Guide tells us that “Scrum is a framework for developing and sustaining complex products.” [41] It’s lightweight, simple to understand but difficult to master…

told my parents I didn 't know how to read. “It’s not your fault, honey, they just didn 't know how to help you,” my mother said to me gently, running her fingers tenderly through my hair. My father, on the other hand, relayed an angry drunken lecture to me almost every night about how that crappy school stole all of his money. Both agreed that the best thing for me was to retake the first grade. It’s been said many times that I was the only thing they could agree on. Still, I heard the…

Businesses to achieve their goal for which they are set up involve number of activities. To better handle or manage these activities or to make the work easier these activities are divided into smaller activities or tasks. A process is simply a well-defined set of steps and decisions points for executing a specific task (Vsellis, 2015). Streamlining these tasks, certain agreed upon steps are followed. So process methodology is an agreed upon way of doing business or running these activities. A…
