KAIZEN’
Continuous improvement
What is Kaizen ?
• Any Improvement activity done in a structured
manner is a KAIZEN.
What is Kaizen ?
Kaizen – A regular habit of thinking new ideas !
• The birth of Kaizen as Management concept is
closely bound up with Japan's recovery and
growth after world war-II.
• Basically Kaizen is for small improvements, but
carried out on a continual basis and involve all
people in the organization.
•Kaizen means simply continuous improvement.
•In other words, carrying out small, gradual, incremental
improvements in large numbers with total
employee involvement, on a continuous basis over a period
of time .
• It must be achieved with 100% participation.
• It is better implemented by a person himself / herself
who has created the improvement idea.
• It is still better if the improvement idea is carried out in
his / her own workplace.
What is Kaizen ?
Kaizen – A regular habit of thinking new ideas !
Main three reasons are :
A. Competitive Quality pressures
Focus of the organizations from “Quality” to
“Competitive Quality”
B. Fast changing industry conditions
Globalization, changing customer needs and company
own.
C. Complacency with present performance
constructive level of dissatisfaction with the present
performance.
Why Kaizen ? (need of Kaizen)
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
• It is used to identify the waste and eliminate
it
• It is used to add value for the customer
• It focuses on each and every process &
operation .
Purpose of Kaizen .
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
These continual small improvements add up
to major benefits.
– Improved productivity.
– Improved quality.
– Better safety.
– Faster delivery.
– Lower costs.
– Greater customer satisfaction.
Benefits resulting from Kaizen.
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
• Value is the worth of a product or service
delivered to a customer, it is the degree to
which customer need or desire is fulfilled and
may include Quality, usefulness, functionality,
availability, price, beauty etc.
• Value added refers to any operation is a
process that changes raw material into value
for the customer..
What is Value & value added ?
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
• Waste is any operation that adds cost
or time but does not add value to
customer.
What is waste?
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
1. Over Production (producing more than what is
demanded by the customer)
2. Inventory (Storing more than the absolute minimum
needed)
3. Transport ( The unnecessary movement of material)
4. Delay (waiting for the next process step)
5. Operation itself(Due to poor tool or product design)
6. Movement of worker( Unnecessary reaching, walking or
looking for parts, tools, prints, information etc)
7. Defective products (Scrap and rework)
What are the Different types of wastes ?
Kaizen – for combined change and survival
1. Look at the three real things
The factory
The facts
Work in process
2. Ask What?
Ask what the operation is about
3. Ask Why?
Ask why the operation is necessary
4. Everything that is not work is waste
Once you have found out what the operation’s essential function
is, you can properly identify as waste everything in the
Operation that does not directly execute the function
5. Ask “Why?” at least 5 times to find root cause
Ask why at least 5 times concerning each wasteful part of the
operation. This will lead you to the real waste
Five key steps for discovering waste

Kaizen : Implementation of 3phases
1. Planning and preparation phase
2. Implementation phase
3. Documentation, Presentation and follow up Phase
Kaizen : Steps in phase 1
1. Select a area
2. Select problem for improvement
3. Select the team leader
4. Select team members
5. Prepare the area
6. Schedule the event
Phase 1 – Special considerations
in choosing a problem for improvement
1. Implementing 5S
2. Eliminating bottlenecks or improving changeover times
3. Implementing cell design, line balancing, or KANBAN
Kaizen : Steps in phase 2
Orientation:
-Introduce the team and assign roles
-Introduce the event objectives and procedures
-Distribute team resources
-Conduct training
Understand the current situation:
-Observe the selected area and gather data
-Map the process
-Do time studies of all operations
Kaizen : Steps in phase 2
Make the improvements:
-Develop improvement ideas
-Implement the new plan
-Test improvement ideas
-Develop new standards
Kaizen : Steps in phase 3
The Documentation & presentation
-Prepare a documentation of all data and event results
-Circulate and Display results

Taboo Phrases
When talking about improvements – never say:
• “Do it yourself”
• “We can’t get costs any lower”
• “This is good enough”
• “I’m too busy to do it”
• “That’s not part of my job”
• “I can’t do it” or “It won’t work”
• “It’s your responsibility, not mine”
• “We’re already doing fine. We don’t need to change”
“ONLY YOUR WHOLE
HEARTED PARTICIPATION
WILL MAKE THE
DIFFERENCE ”
“It isn’t enough to be going fast in the right direction.
If you’re not going fast enough, you can still get run over.”
