PROJECT
BACKGROUND
This project addresses the application of
“Waste Reduction Management” concepts
to the garment production sector with the
help of lean tools, focusing on the export
houses in India.
Garment production process as most business processes are 90% waste and
10% value- added work (Jeffrey K. Liker)

LEAN TOOL
5S
VSM
WRM
The term lean denotes a system that utilizes less, in term of all input, to
create the same output as those created by a traditional mass production
system, while contributing increased variety for end customer.
(Panizzolo, 1998)

5S Vs VSM
5S VSM
Lean tool for material and process
waste handling.
Lean tool for information and
process waste handling.
Works on 5 pillars related to
physical arrangement activities.
Works on timeframe arrangement of
value and non value activities.
This activity reduces scrap, defects,
raw materials, unneeded items, old
broken tools, and obsolete jigs and
fixtures.
It is the specific activity within the
supply chain required to design
order and provide a specific product
or value

What is 5S?
5S is…
One tool that supports the principle of waste elimination by
organizing the workplace
An integral part of the Lean process
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary companies
If you’re going to Do It, Do It
RIGHT!

VISUALS RESULTS
The visuals presented here are showing the poor state of the
company in terms of 5S.
These visuals are showing the arrangement and placement of
different items like machines, bundles, etc at the wrong place
and stored in inefficient way.
This scenario depicts the necessity of first two pillars ‘sort’ and
‘set-in-order’ of 5S.

SEARCHING TIME
ANALYSIS
The time calculation of the search for bundles, patterns, end
bits, etc. are too high to be comfortable with.
These results shows that
There is no proper place for storing the items like bundles,
end bit patterns etc.
The racks are not labeled due to which operators are
facing the problem of searching the items.

WHAT IS VSM?
The value stream is a collection of all actions value added as well
as non value added that are required to bring a product or a group
of product that use the same resource through the main flow, from
raw material to the arms of the customer.
(Rother and Shook, 1999)
It creates a common language for production process, thus
facilitating more thoughtful decisions to improve the value
stream.
(McDonald, Van Aken & Rentes, 2002)

BENEFITS
It helps to visualize more than just a single process level in production. One can see
the entire flow
Mapping helps in not only to see the waste but also its source in the value stream
It provides common language for talking about manufacturing process
It ties together lean concepts and techniques
It forms basis of an implementation plan

WASTE ON TIME-FRAME
ANALYSIS
The time calculation of process time, waste time and value breakdown
presents requirements for WRM..
These results shows that
Whole process is about 97% non value added and only 3% adds to the
value of customer.
Storage and delay covers major portion of process time waste i.e. 85% .
Most of delay are made in for of inventory and waiting time followed by
transportation.

SIMULATION MODEL
This phase involves the use of mathematical tools to incorporate variation
into the VSM and perform a dynamic evaluation of the function.
This will also provide user friendliness to the model, wherein the user can
input different time values for all the delays and processes in the VSM.
The simulation will then calculate MTTO, MTTT, MTTY, MPLT, non-value
added time , value added time and efficiency of the maintenance function.

products that are ready to be shipped, located

SUMMARY
Major and minor classification of industrial waste is done. This leads to
formulation of a methodology for selection of lean tools for waste reduction
management.
Taxonomy of the garment industry with a view to identifying targets for
handling WRM tools was developed.
Lean methods 5S and Value Stream Mapping was used as a tool, to identify
opportunities for reducing industrial waste from production
From the results obtained from using lean WRM tools at TSIL, an
implementation plan was developed to enhance 5S implementation
methodology and the value stream mapping to evaluate the future state map

LIMITATIONS
Effective implementation is dependent on the attitude of the people
involved
The implementation is impossible without Organization’s
Management Support
Convincing the people for the change is a time taking process
If the implementation shows even a bit of negative impact on the
people, it would be discarded and it will be next to impossible to re-
implement in the future
Implementation requires enrolling the people, rather than ordering
and getting the work physically done
79. 24-May-21

FURTHER SCOPE
Once Lean is achieved in the organization, the Lean approach could
be expected from the organization’s vendors. This all could be
achieved through Value Stream Mapping, facilitated with other Lean
tools.

CONCLUSION
The development of 5S and the future state map is not the end of a set of
waste reduction management activities. It should be stressed that the
whole process should be revisited and reprocessed until the future
becomes the present. The idea is to keep the cycle going because if
sources of waste are reduced during a cycle, other wastes are uncovered
in the next cycle. Lean manufacturing tools for waste reduction
management can thus be adapted in any manufacturing situation albeit
to varying degrees.
