IV Optimized Flow & Pull

Systems

2. Method: Synergy of Optimized Flow & Pull systems

• Business benefits:

Reduce lead-time

Increase capacity

Established by

Workload balancing• Produce faster by reducing work in progress time.

• Producing more with the same workforce.

• Producing the same and free up resource capacity to let knowledge workers

participate in other processes, such as continuous improvement projects.

Waste elimination• Eliminating problems (bottlenecks) faster by making them visible.

• Twelve best practices

2. Method: Case study (Calamity)

• Calamity:

• Permanent staff: 200 employees

• Summer months ultra busy

• World-wide coverage

• Assistance and service around the clock

• Twelve best practices

• Five best practices covered by Calamity.

• Case information should be stored in the case itself

• Production should be triggered by downstream

• One best practice to improve Calamity with current solution

• The case flow should be continuously monitored.

• Six best practices in which ways Cordys can improve its product

• The customer demand should be leveled to protect a balanced flow.

• Lean designer should be supported by an online interactive

simulation capability
