Lean Concepts "8 Forms of Waste Cause & Effect : How to Eliminate / Reduce Wastes" By SN Panigrahi
Lean Principles
Lean is a business philosophy, not just a tool set or method for improvement. This business philosophy was derived from Toyota experiences and in particular from its Toyota Production System (TPS).
The focus is on reducing waste in all business processes. The result is reduction of cost and lead-time as well as an increase in quality.
The seven wastes originated in Japan, where waste is known as “Muda."
"The seven wastes" is a tool to further categorize “Muda” and was originally developed by Toyota’s Chief Engineer Taiichi Ohno as the core of the Toyota Production System (TPS), also known as Lean Manufacturing.
Lean implementation focuses on Reducing the Seven (now expanded to 8 wastes) types of Waste (or Muda, which is the Japanese word for waste).
The 8th waste added is non-used employee talent (N), so that the 8 wastes can be easily remembered via the mnemonic “DOWN TIME” (Defective Production,Overproduction, Waiting, Non-used Employee Talent (the 8th form), Transportation, Inventory, Motion, and Excessive (Over) Processing)
Seven wastes
1. The document identifies the seven types of waste or "muda" in lean manufacturing systems: overproduction, processing, transport, waiting time, inventory, motion, and defects. These wastes take away value without adding value for the customer.
2. It provides examples and causes of each type of waste. Overproduction waste occurs when more goods are made than can be sold. Processing waste comes from unnecessary processing steps. Transport waste is unnecessary movement of materials, tools, or equipment. Waiting time waste is idle time for workers or machines. Inventory waste is excessive raw materials or work-in-process inventory. Motion waste is unnecessary bodily movements by workers. Defects waste results from rework or repair of defective items
7 waste in the production
In all reality, there are the production waste. Here I explain the 7 wastes from most towns elliminare. Based on the TPM and Lean Management.

8 Wastes in Lean
Lean thinking aims to remove wastes from work processes. Before diving into the 8 wastes, it is important to understand what waste is. Waste is any action or step in a process that does not add value to the customer. In other words, waste is any process that the customer does not want to pay for. The original seven wastes (Muda) was developed by Taiichi Ohno, the Chief Engineer at Toyota, as part of the Toyota Production System (TPS). The seven wastes are Talent, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Overproduction, Over processing and Defects. They are often referred to by the acronym ‘TIMWOOD’.
The 8th waste of non-utilized talent or ‘Skills’ of workers was later introduced in the 1990s when the Toyota Production System was adopted in the Western world. As a result, the 8 wastes are commonly referred to as ‘TIMWOODS’.

Muda
Muda refers to any activity that does not add value, according to Toyota production system founder Taichi Ohno. He identified seven common forms of muda, or waste: overproduction, waiting time, transportation, processing defects, unnecessary inventory, unnecessary motion, and overprocessing. Reducing or eliminating these wastes improves productivity and efficiency. Strategies to address each type of waste include improving production planning, minimizing movement of materials, reducing defects, and optimizing processes. Muda can occur throughout manufacturing and office operations, so eliminating it requires analyzing processes across the entire organization.
The Role of Minigrids in Energy Access and National Electrification Planning
This document discusses developing a national energy plan that promotes energy access and economic growth. It argues that energy access means more than just basic lighting and must provide equal opportunities to improve quality of life. Mini-grids can play a role but must be planned to connect and grow with communities' increasing energy needs over time. A comprehensive plan requires in-depth data collection and should facilitate connecting mini-grids to each other and the public grid to efficiently meet energy demand and allow communities to develop.
Fighting Forks
The document discusses how open source software licenses keep software open and accessible. It notes that licenses are the only tool available to ensure openness. However, government procurement processes often result in open source software being closed off or having restricted access. The document provides suggestions for improving government processes to better support open source principles of evolution, participation, and value.

Presentation by Rajesh Kumar Mudiakal
The document discusses using an agile approach called Hybrid ASAP methodology for SAP implementations to overcome the limitations of the traditional waterfall approach. Hybrid ASAP combines aspects of ASAP methodology and agile methods like Scrum. It involves dividing the project team into smaller groups to work in parallel sprints. An initial product backlog is created using SAP accelerators and baseline builds. Then a lean business blueprint is made along with a release plan. Multiple sprints are conducted with dynamic updates to the product backlog at each sprint completion to deliver incremental working software. This allows for faster deployment, reduced risks and improved customer satisfaction over the traditional waterfall approach.
Six sigma
Six Sigma is a data-driven approach and methodology for process improvement originally developed by Motorola. It aims to reduce defects and variation in manufacturing and business processes. The document discusses the history and key aspects of Six Sigma such as the DMAIC approach, tools used in each phase like process mapping, root cause analysis, and improvement techniques like 5S, poka-yoke, and FMEA. Implementing Six Sigma through the DMAIC approach can help organizations optimize processes and improve quality, productivity, and customer satisfaction.

"We are doing it wrong."
The document discusses problems with traditional software development approaches and proposes an alternative approach focused on continuous delivery. It argues that current practices prioritize resource utilization, projects, and technical possibilities over delivering value. Instead, it advocates for minimizing work-in-progress, focusing on flow over batching, establishing stable teams to continuously deliver working software, and making decisions based on learning rather than upfront estimates. The overall message is that software development needs to shift from a project mindset to prioritizing the delivery of valuable, working code.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
