Radical vs. incremental

The challenge
Consolidation of oral solids blister packaging operations from 3
plants into a new packaging center
Build up a center of
excellence for blister
packaging in the group
Threats:
 Increased throughput time due to no direct connection
between bulk manufacturing plants and Packaging Center
 Starvation of packaging lines due to increased lead time of
bulk supply and capacity restrictions of bulk manufacturing
 Reduction of “flexibility” and back up sites
Opportunities:
 Facilitate late stage packaging given the high number of
SKU’s for a same molecule (thus improvement of finished
good inventory, and, consequently, service level)
 Enhancement of Demand Planning & Plan adherence
 Creation of a new way of working in order to increase and
sustain long term productivity of packaging assets

 Characterizing, understanding and
managing capacity is fundamental
to operational excellence success
 Failure to understand and manage
capacity = eventual failure of the
system
Decision-Making is about Trade-offs
Capacity management as a key driver for the Packaging Center
Service Cost
Flexibility Efficiency
Dedicated lines
Optimal allocation and
prioritized sequence
Trade-offs
No dedicated lines
No standard allocation

 Capacity loss1 ► no bulk reliability ► no optimal sequencing:
 Synchronisation between end of
manufacturing and start of packaging
(SAP)
 Optimised sequence of orders from
“packaging point of view” (pacemaker)
 Equipment is less flexible than people
1 Example from Plant A: UHL1 from Oct. to Dec. 2015

Simplified Future VSM
Design improvement on paper as the blueprint for implementation
PageVSM to support Production Planning │ 13th OPEX in Pharma and Biotech Hannover │ 28th September 2017 14
 Simulations have to be done whenever a new
Forecast is released
 Back up lines to be pre-defined in order to avoid
occurrence of “last minute allocations” and
creation of chaos in long run
 List of products and number of batches in
Supermarket have to be updated as per
fluctuations in demand
 Simulations are only valid with a sound data basis
 Consistency of the plan has to be validated in real
life:
• Line allocation is not static
• “Standards” should always change

Final Thoughts
What we have learned when drawing the Value Stream Maps
 Like many other lean tools, doing value stream mapping for the
sake of doing the map wouldn’t help us much
 It is fundamental to have a clear understanding of the goal of the
mapping; in our case, we had a problem that we wanted to fix
 A simplified version of VSM worked out quite good, because we
wanted only to comprehend the main road blockers to our
allocation strategy, and interfaces between plants and systems
 Be careful not to turn your VSM into a wasteful theoretical exercise,
especially when one picture is not enough to capture the process:
• When product mix changes frequently
• When there is high variability in processing times
• When route selection varies
• Equipment is shared by more than one product family
 Our downstream processes are still not reliable enough and
packaging centre had to be decoupled from the continuous flow
 Basic Improvement Framework: Look at capacity first
 We are now substituting capacity for inventory buffers, aiming to
reduce variability. Hopefully, we will be capable of reducing
capacity buffers in the future
 Select a cross-functional team, whose members are familiar with
the process

  • 15. PageVSM to support Production Planning │ 13th OPEX in Pharma and Biotech Hannover │ 28th September 2017 Final Thoughts What we have learned when drawing the Value Stream Maps  Like many other lean tools, doing value stream mapping for the sake of doing the map wouldn’t help us much  It is fundamental to have a clear understanding of the goal of the mapping; in our case, we had a problem that we wanted to fix  A simplified version of VSM worked out quite good, because we wanted only to comprehend the main road blockers to our allocation strategy, and interfaces between plants and systems  Be careful not to turn your VSM into a wasteful theoretical exercise, especially when one picture is not enough to capture the process: • When product mix changes frequently • When there is high variability in processing times • When route selection varies • Equipment is shared by more than one product family  Our downstream processes are still not reliable enough and packaging centre had to be decoupled from the continuous flow  Basic Improvement Framework: Look at capacity first  We are now substituting capacity for inventory buffers, aiming to reduce variability. Hopefully, we will be capable of reducing capacity buffers in the future  Select a cross-functional team, whose members are familiar with the process 15
