The Lean Enterprise All About Kaizen Another methodology: Kaizen Within the Continuous Improvement tools arena, perhaps none is more critical than Kaizen events. While other lean tools may stand alone, Kaizens seek to change culture and processes through the utilization of many of the lean enterprise principles Kaizens seek small daily improvements resulting in large yearly savings Compared to a large-scale DMAIC project, Kaizens focus on short-term “blitzes” to make immediate impact and change (change for the better) The process of leading a Kaizen however, follows the DMAIC format Learning Objective This section seeks to standardize the process of Kaizens in an attempt to provide useful tools allowing ‘first-time’ facilitators to ‘hit the ground running’ with a project of their own. One important concept is to start small and tackle the more complex problems at a later date - once momentum is built and the Kaizen process has been understood Some of the tools include a Kaizen Schedule, Kaizen Area Improvement Sheet, 7W and 5S forms, Area Action Form, Prioritization Matrix, and a Problem Record Sheet (These are embedded in the presentation and located in forms section …) Overview Kaizen is one of the critical tools within a Continuous Improvement Process (CIP) Overview What is Kaizen ? Overview Benefits of Small Daily Improvements can Add Up DMAIC and PDCA Overview What is a Kaizen event? A Kaizen event is a planned event (2 - 5 days) of intense improvement activities directed at specific areas of the business toward a larger goal Kaizen events are essentially narrow-focused, short-term DMAIC projects. These can ALSO be done as part of any Lean, BB or GB project A Kaizen event is a cycle of improvement How do I do a Kaizen event ? You do a Kaizen the same way as a DMAIC project and using PDCA as your guide Cycle of ‘Continual’ Improvement Overview Benefits of a Kaizen Teamwork Everyone is able to participate and make improvements No o
