Thomas Arno Hellmuth-SanderCertified Lean Green Belt at TNT Express Germany
Introduction
Changes in shifts and the need for cost-effective leadership in operation make it necessary, that changes will be implemented in shifts in real time.
A shift planning must be already at the start of the shift, all changes that have occurred in the personnel and / or technical area must be done before.
This is best possible to do it with the online tools from the mind map area, as these allow you to access at any time, from anywhere and paste short-term changes and adapt plans.
Basics of effective Shift planning
Shift Costs
Advanced options
Software requirements
Used software solution
After tests of different software solution I found MindMeister for the best for my personal daly work.
Building a shift planning with MindMeister
In the following pages, it is the structure which is useful for me.
The shift planning for multiple shifts or different locations must be individually or should even be in different files.
Also, the information content has to be adapted to the requirements of each individual manager.
Of course, the use of MindMeister is only one of many possibilities. The applications should be crucial for each individual in the selection of the software solution.
Organisation
In order to make comparisons with the last shift planning, it is useful to keep the previous week as a file.
The Mind-Map
The structure of the mind map is derived from the required information on the shift. In my experience, it takes a few weeks until to find the optimum to processed the information.
The Mind-Map - Legend
From the legend goes the individual paths. The legend is the starding point in the mind map.
Structure Mind Map - Use of symbols
Through the use of the existing symbols can already be seen at a glance and where appropriate, correct problem areas in shifts.
Structure Mind Map Overview
In the mind map relevant data are fitted with an overview of the shift, this allows a direct comparison with the previous day's figures and shortens the response time to change the next day.
Outlook shift planning
I think it is important that the shift plans are now only cost-effective and effective, if at any time changes are possible, and planned even before the shift starts.
