  18. Customer-Defined Value Value-Adding (VA) - any operation or activity your external customers value and are (or would be) willing to pay for. Non-Value-Adding (NVA) - any operation or activity that consumes time and/or resources but does not add value to the product (good or service) the customer receives.   Necessary – support processes, regulatory requirements, etc. Unnecessary – everything else - WASTE 18
  19. Work Effort as Defined by the External Customer Unnecessary Non-value adding Necessary Non-valueadding Value-adding
  20. Eight Wastes (Muda) Overproduction Inventory Waiting Over-Processing Errors © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates Motion (people) Transportation (material/data) Underutilized people 20
  21. Value Stream Defined Value Stream: All of the activities, required to fulfill a customer request from order to delivery (and beyond to cash received). Value Stream Process Process Process Custom er Customer Request © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates Customer Receipt 21
  22. Why Value Stream Mapping? To set strategy before diving into tactics. Enables us to SEE the process. Promotes systems thinking / seeing the whole  Helps us avoid sub-optimizing © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 22

  25. Key Metrics: Time Process time (PT)    The time it takes to actually perform the work, if one is able to work on it uninterrupted Includes task-specific doing, talking, and thinking aka “touch time,” work time, cycle time Lead time (LT)    The elapsed time from the time work is made available until it’s completed and passed on to the next person or department in the chain aka throughput time, turnaround time, elapsed time Includes Process Time, not merely waiting time. © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 25
  26. Lead Time vs. Process Time Lead Time Process Time Work passed to next step Work Received LT = PT + Waiting / Delays Activity Ratio = (LT ÷ PT) x 100 © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 26
  27. Key Metrics: Quality %Complete and Accurate (%C&A)   The percentage of input that’s deemed “usable as is” by the person doing the work % of incoming work where the downstream customer can perform task without having to “CAC”:  Correct information or material that was supplied  Add information that should have been supplied  Clarify information that should have or could have been clearer   Measured by the immediate downstream customer and all subsequent downstream customers. Similar to first pass yield in manufacturing. © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 27
  28. Summary Metrics: Quality Rolled First Pass Yield (RFPY)     The percent of value stream output that passes through the process “clean,” with no “hiccups,” no rework required. RFPY = %C&A x %C&A x %C&A… Common finding = 0-15% Multiply ALL %C&A’s, even if parallel processes © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 28

  43. Lean Transformation vs. “Lean Lite” Lean Transformation “Lean Lite” Full leadership engagement & development 1 or 2 leaders leading the way Improvement heavily strategic; closely tied to business goals “Random acts of kaizen” Full adoption of the Lean philosophy Selective use of the tools Dedicated internal resources Shared resources Significant investment in skill development Expected to “figure it out” Heavy use of external support for first 1-2 years Internal resources only Holistic approach to improvement Silo’d thinking & behaving Frontlines heavily engaged in the improvement process Improvement resources or leadership drive improvement 43
  44. The Transformation Process: Key Success Factors  Strong sense of urgency / burning platform  Leadership alignment around strategy  Improvement priorities are closely tied to organizational strategy and annual business goals.  Value-stream driven improvements.  To avoid change fatigue, improve one value stream at a time.  Heavy use of Kaizen Events in first 1-3 yrs.  4 Events per 100 employees per year  Dedicated improvement resources.  1 FTE: 100 employees  Entire workforce receives exposure to Lean and becomes skilled in problem-solving.  Concurrent leadership development. © 2010 Karen Martin & Associates 44
