Implementing “Lean” can create improved financial and operational results. Many companies are turning to lean manufacturing in an effort to become more profitable. Lean is a management system for satisfying customers on delivery, quality and price. When understood, Lean can become a business system that enables:
As a lean business system, success comes when every single person in the organization understands the philosophy. Not only do they understand, but they practice it as they go about their daily jobs. The system promotes individuals and teams to be involved looking for waste and suggesting for better ways.
The most significant roadblock to successful lean implementation is employee resistance.
Our training simulations are designed to bridge that crucial gap between implementation of "lean" and employee acceptance.
They are a fun, educational way to expose employees at all levels of your organization to the change process and motivate them to desire improvements in their processes. With our simulations, employees quickly grasp lean concepts and overcome their natural resistance to change.
Whether you're implementing an extensive lean program, or simply planning a strategy meeting, brainstorming session, or any other group encounter where change will be a primary issue, our simulations can help break the ice.
We use Lean Zone® Production Methodologies from Visionary Products because they help break down employees' natural resistance to change, making it a practical and entertaining way to introduce new concepts, open constructive dialogue and demonstrate the positive aspects of well-planned directed change. Employees involved in the simulation see why lean production methodologies are necessary. It helps to remove their fears regarding change and encourage them to identify non-value added activity.
Using a fictional aircraft factory, our simulation also specifically teaches advanced manufacturing practices, including:
Six participants operate simulated workstations along the assembly line in their imaginary aircraft plant.
The four-phase simulation begins with participants producing aircraft using a traditional plant layout. In phases two and three, they redesign their work area into a cellular layout and learn to utilize one-piece workflow with a pull system. In the final phase, they experience the concepts of a flexible workforce and load leveling.
Supplier problems, labour skills, deadlines, quality control and other real-life situations have been incorporated into each phase of the simulation. Each phase lasts between six to ten minutes with time for comments and discussion.
