The document describes a kaizen improvement at a manufacturing plant to better organize the storage of raw materials. Previously, raw materials of different grades and sizes were mixed together, making it difficult to identify materials. To address this, the plant implemented a new storage method to separately store raw materials like flanges and bosses based on grade and size. This allows materials to now be easily identified and avoids mixing of different grades, improving the efficiency and accuracy of materials retrieval and machining for customers who require parts made from specific grades of raw materials.
