How to Analyze Abnormalities in the Industry Through Daily Management

When an “Abnormality” Occurs, Corrective action (To Prevent Recurrence) and Preventive Action (To prevent Occurrence of Similar abnormality) Needs to be taken………!

How?

CAPA includes control points, control levels, etc. This step is the key to the improvement of your performance.

To Prevent recurrence of the abnormality, you need to understand the situation in great detail, analyze the causes at a deep level, and take action to eliminate the cause.

To prevent the occurrence in similar areas, you need preventive actions. These actions include revision of SOP’s, control points & control levels along with regular skill updation of the concerned.

Abnormality Analysis Framework

When any abnormality occurs, the root cause(s) of this abnormality must be known or analysis to be done & necessary corrective actions are required to be taken to prevent the recurrence of this particular abnormality. This corrective action brings in a gradual improvement in the performance level.

The occurrence of the abnormality can happen due to the following reasons:

SOP’s are not available

SOP’s are available, followed by the people but still, abnormality occurred.

SOP’s are available but not followed by the people

Analyze Abnormalities in the Industry Through Daily Management- Once an abnormality occurs, an analysis of the same must be done to conclude one of the above reasons due to which the abnormality happened.

Let’s Understand all the above three reasons:

a) If the conclusion is that the abnormality occurred because the SOP for doing the job was not available and the job was not done as per the standardized way, requisite standards operating procedure must be prepared by the concerned persons, all the people who are required to do this particular job must be trained and a system should be incorporated to ensure that jobs are done as per the standardized procedures.

b) While standards are available and followed, these are not adequate to achieve the desired level of performance. Therefore, these standards should be reviewed for adequacy and requisite modification should be made in these standards & training to be provided to all the concerned members.

c) While Standard operating procedures are available, these were not followed by operating people, further analysis should be done to find out the reasons behind people not following the standards

These reasons Can be:

People are not aware of the standards.

Standards are too difficult to follow.

People are aware of the standard but difficult to follow.

People are aware of the standards but knowingly not following.

Tips for Choosing a CMS for Your Website

What is CMS?

A content management system (CMS) is a software application or set of related programs that are used to create and manage digital content. CMSes are typically used for enterprise content management (ECM) and web content management (WCM). An ECM facilitates collaboration in the workplace by integrating document management, digital asset management and records retention functionalities, and providing end users with role-based access to the organization's digital assets. A WCM facilitates collaborative authoring for websites. ECM software often includes a WCM publishing functionality, but ECM webpages typically remain behind the organization's firewall. 

Tips for Choosing a CMS for Your Website:

If you are interested in creating a website, you probably want a content management system (CMS). While you can code a website from scratch if you know how, a CMS lets most people easily add content, format their websites, and add and arrange content how they see fit. However, selecting the right CMS can be challenging and many get overwhelming.

There is nothing wrong if you want to use WordPress, but it may not be the best choice for your particular website. Every organization needs something different, whether that difference comes down to personal tastes or what resources are available. Here are some tips and factors to consider for your website so you can get the CMS that is just right for you.

1. Figure out why you want a website

Different CMSs are built for different websites. For example, an e-commerce website should consider Magneto.

In addition to figuring out why you want to build a website, you need to define what constitutes a successful website. For most websites, simply attracting visitors is enough. But if you are running an online business or charity, you want to measure how much money you are receiving from the business. While this may seem to be a basic step, knowing what you want from your website is the first step to determining what CMS will work.

2. Understand open source vs. proprietary CMS

There are many different CMSs out there, but they can be generally divided into free, open-source CMSs like WordPress or Joomla or paid, proprietary CMS like Ghost or LightCMS.

You may think that the paid CMS will be better than a free one, but that is not the case. In fact, open-source CMSs are generally more flexible, have more design choices, and are more affordable. The catch is that an open-source CMS is a general template that is suitable for a vast array of websites, while a proprietary CMS can be customized for your specific design or business. Also, a proprietary CMS is normally safer.

Cypress North has a good guide if you are still unsure whether to pay or not. But in general, go for an open-source website if your organization is completely new and you are unsure about what you want the website to look like. Open source CMSs like WordPress are best if you want to set up a blog. Use a proprietary CMS if you are in a more niche field, know exactly what the website’s design should be, and have the cash available.

3. How easy is it to use and restrict?

If you have some computer expertise and are the only person managing your website, then you can use a more complicated CMS. But if you have multiple users and editors, then you need a CMS that is more user-friendly. In this regard, WordPress is a good starting point for your website, as you can figure out what your peers are capable of doing or not doing and adjusting your website and its coding appropriately.

But while you want a CMS that your peers can use easily, you also need to be able to control who can post what as the website grows larger.

For example, a news website may have bloggers who can post an article, but only after an editor checks over and approves it. Make sure that the CMS allows for multiple roles and different kinds of permissions, enabling you to limit where users can post.

4. Check the search function

When someone visits your website looking for relevant content, they will often hit your website’s search engine to find something they are interested in. It’s most likely that 30 percent of site visitors will use a website’s search bar on their first visit.((Agility: Why it’s Important to Have a Search Bar On Your Site—And How to Leverage It))

This obviously means that you want to make sure your CMS has a search bar option, but that is not enough. Make sure that the search has good speed, checks all of your website to find relevant content, and understand how it shows its rankings. If you are using an open-source CMS, look at search plug-in options that can give users more advanced search criteria or speed up searching.

5. Understand the relationship between CMS and SEO

Every website wants to attract people, and a strong SEO strategy is critical towards getting viewers. Consequently, any CMS must have options that can help your website on the search rankings.

Some things to consider are the URLs, as you want your web pages to read well. Also check to make sure that the CMS will let you customize page title, keywords, and the meta description. Higher Visibility also has some good pieces of advice for other ways which your website’s CMS can improve your SEO such as breadcrumb navigation and a 301 redirect.

Designing a manufacturing System through Lean Layouts and Cellular Manufacturing

Traditionally, many conventional factory design had common manufacturing method of Job shop which is organised based on the concept where all similar operations are grouped and put in one room with a supervisor or a manager.   High batch size, high volume transportation, high need for storage space and aisles/pathways flooded with materials resulting safety compromise. Factory design in the form of Lean layout with cellular manufacturing concepts helps in improving productivity, reduction of Lead time, improves Quality and improves ontime performance.

As per new manufacturing  system design, cellular manufacturing concepts can have several types

The following are some of the key objectives of Lean layout:

Smooth flow of work

Machines in sequence with operations

Minimum Operator Inconvenience

Easy Material Handling

Elimination of unnecessary material movement

Space for storage of materials

Space for storage of tools close to the machine

Space for operator movement

Space for easy maintenance

Space for holding maintenance equipment

Parking space for manual trolleys, fork-lifts,

Trucks, Power Trolleys etc

Clear aisles for safe movement of trolleys.

Space for operators tool-kit, gauges, measuring instruments

Proper location of inspection facility

The following are the steps involved in creating Lean Layout from a running factory.  

Current Layout

Draw current layout to the scale to create template for the entire plant.  This includes machines, storage places, gangways etc.

Draw flow diagram on the layout to understand the material movement.

List down the constraint in the existing layout like movement, storage space, critical machines etc.

New Layout

Analyse possibility of creating cellular manufacturing concept.  Design of new layout depends on cellular manufacturing / non cellular manufacturing.

Create block layout in the new available space allowing space for expansion.  Create at least two alternatives, discuss with management and select best one.

Draw detailed layout showing gangways, WIP storage and all equipments. Remove constraints from the existing layout.

Show material movement from RM store to FG to understand the flow.

Factors influencing plant layout:

Material   :  Variety, Quantity, Operations, Sequence of operations

Machinery : Equipment, Tools

Man Movement : Operators, Supervisors, Inspectors, Services Staff Material handling methods, Clear space for movement & safety of personnel.

Storage  : Storage  of In-Process & POU material

Services : Power  Lines, Air Lines, Water Lines, Exhaust Lines, Inspections, Maintenance, Process Scrap, Tools  Storage, Other Special Requirements.

How to Analyze Abnormalities in the Industry Through Daily Management

What is the Need for Standard Operations?

It  happens that the most important elements in the daily activity of manufacturing begin with the letter “M.” In factories, we are trying to find the best possible combination of Men, Materials, Methods, Measurements, and Machines, so that we can make the best products while spending less cost. Standard operations can be defined as an effective mode of workers, materials, and machines for the sake of making high-quality products at low cost, quickly, and safely.

How To Customise TPM Implementation To Suit Your Organization Culture

Designing a manufacturing System through Lean Layouts and Cellular Manufacturing

TPM was developed in Japan between 1950 to 1970.  Like TQM, Lean and Six Sigma, TPM also one of the proven strategies for Operational Excellence.  Seiichi Nakajima is regarded as Guru of TPM. The Core of TPM is Machines and Equipments.  Some people called TPM as Medical Science for Machines.

Similar to Lean, TQM and Six Sigma; TPM is also expanded beyond manufacturing Industry. Today even healthcare Industry, Hospitality Industry and Service Industries are exploring the possibilities of Integrating TPM in to their Business Excellence Strategies.

While more details on TPM are available in many websites and Wikipedia, the purpose of this blog is to provide our insights on how to make it work in different Countries, Industries and cultures.

Managing Change is a challenge from Centuries. One of the TPM principles says Operators responsible for maintaining their own machines by doing daily Cleaning, Lubrication, Inspection, Tightening and Adjustment (Popularly known as CLITA).It is easy to sell this concept in Japanese Auto companies like Toyota Honda and their subsidiaries in other countries.  But think about taking it beyond Japan and Automotive Industries. It will be a very tough task. The first resistance comes from Production Managers and Supervisors (not from Operators!)

Based on decades of our experience in implementing operational Excellence in various cultures, we suggest the following steps to make your TPM Journey successful.  These steps are based on a simple and yet powerful tool called 5W1H (What, Why, Where, When, Who and How)

First ask WHAT are the strategies which helps you to achieve your organization goals. If one of the answers is TPM go to next Steps .My post in LinkedIn Synergy of TQM, TPM, LEAN and SIX SIGMA simplified! I tried to explain the application of different methodologies https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/synergy-tqm-tpm-lean-six-sigma-simplified-ramesh-p-r-/

The second question is Where you can implement TPM and WHY. TPM can be implemented only to certain areas to solve some chronic problems OR this can be adopted at the top level as a Strategy. If your objective is Cultural transformation, TPM need to be adopted by the Top Management as a Key strategy

Once it is decided to implement TPM, the next questions are WHO and WHEN. This again depends on Step 2. If it is a top level strategy, then Steering Committee (High Level) should own the responsibility.  The roadmap answers the question WHEN?

The last question Left is HOW? . To answer this, we need to refer JiPM’s 12 Step methodology.JiPM – Japanese Institute of Plant Maintenance is the organization provides complete guidelines TPM implementation.

Below are some of the reasons for Failure of TPM implementation.

TPM is just adopted as a problem solving tool by Maintenance department – The core ideology behind TPM is Total Employee Involvement. Many people mis-understand the letter M in TPM as Maintenance department. It is wrong. T stands for TOTAL meaning 100 % involvement including top, middle and frontline management. P stands for Productivity of all functions and processes and M stands for Maintenance or Sustenance of the gains through standardization and cultural transformation.  The secret of TPM’s success is commitment from leadership team.

TPM is used a Flavour of the Monthconcept – Successful implementation of TPM need minimum 3 years of consistent efforts. Some organizations shift gears from TPM to LEAN to Six Sigma. This problem occurs typically in the organizations where Leadership changes within a span of 1-2 years. Every new CEO comes with his own thoughts , ideas and jargons which confuses people and make them cynical.

Try to solve all Problems through TPM – “If hammer is the only tool you have, you tend to see every problem as a nail” – Abraham Maslow. Different problems need different approaches.  Identify bring those tools under TPM umbrella. For example; Tool Changeover is a problem, SMED or Quick Changeover is the solution. This is considered as a Lean tool but can be brought under TPM umbrella. Similarly Six Sigma has good tools to solve issues related to variation (ex: Statistical Process Control) and those tools can be brought under TPM umbrella.

Implementing TPM just to satisfy Customers – Some organizations implement TPM because of customers pressure. This just wastes time and money. It may help in short –term to make customer happy but it seriously affects in the long-term. Both customer and organization play very important role in overcoming this issue.

Not linking TPM to companies Balance Sheet and P&L – The popularity and success of Six Sigma (particularly in companies like GE) can be attributed to its linkage with financial statements. Though we can expect little financial impact during first 12 months, at some point of time, we need to link TPM with financial results. After all every investment need to be justified by ROI!

Not aligning TPM with Management Systems – Management Systems like ISO 9001, IATF 16949, AS 9100, and ISO 14001 etc should be linked to TPM and brought under TPM umbrella. For example Quality Management Systems can be linked to QM pillar of TPM and ISO 14001 and ISO 45001 can be linked with SHE pillar.

Trying to copy and paste – “One size fits all” will not work for Operational excellence. Best examples are the organizations that tried to copy Toyota model and failed. Customization is very important based on Industry and culture.  This requires much broader and innovative thinking particularly by the leadership team. Taking the help of a Sensei (Guru) will shorten the lead-time for customization.

By overcoming the above 7 issues organizations can successfully implement TPM and reap the benefits.

How To Sustain Daily Operations In Lean Practicing Companies Through Application Of Standard Work Methodology

Standard work is one of the fundamental Lean tool for defining the best combination of man and machine activity for the best productivity.  It consists of timing for different elemental activities, the path to be followed by the operator in doing the activities.

Standard work has 3 elements:

Takt time

Standard sequence for doing the work

Work In Process to produce products without any stockout situations

Takt time is the time within which the product to be produced to meet the customer demand.  For example, if a customer wants 420 products per day and available time for production is 420 min/day after deducting break times, then

Takt time is defined as

= Total time available per day/Total demand per day = 420/420 = 1 product/min.

The meaning of the above formula is we have to do complete one product within a minute to meet the customer demand.

There are other terminologies used in the production of a product, “total processing time” & “cycle time”.  Total processing time is the time it takes to make the product. If total processing time is more than takt time, then we need to put more than one person to produce the product by splitting the operations to so that product can be produced within the takt time.  In this case, time taken by each operator is called “Cycle time”.

The main objective of dividing the total processing into small times by putting more operators is to make

Cycle time is < Takt time so that we can meet customer demand. When more than one person is involved in producing a product, timings among the operators to be balanced for better productivity.

By applying the standard work concept, we can reduce the idle time of any activity or get the highest production.

Standard work is applied in:

Designing a manufacturing cell

Designing a production line

For manpower calculation for meeting a targeted production

For product costing

For assembly line operations

Loading & unloading activities

Changeover time

Building quality into the process

Employee performance measurement

And for many more manual activities

Companies who are not familiar about the Standard work concept and not applying to the operations/processes are facing a low productivity scenario.

Without the standard work, it is difficult to measure improvement activities.  Only with standard work, we can compare benefits before and after improvement.

There are some forms that are used in defining standard work.  They are time study sheet, standard work combination sheet, standard operations analysis sheet & Capacity analysis sheet. Standard work is incomplete without these forms.

All the above charts to be displayed in the near to the process or work cell. All the operators connected to the operations to be trained on Standard work by applying the concept of Training Within Industry (TWI) using Job Instructions (JI).

Related Article– Skill development for employees through effective Training Within Industry – TWI training in India

Also, Standard work is the basis for training new employees quickly.

In the SDCA (Standardise, Do, Check, Act) cycle, it is the main role of Supervisors to ensure operators are aware of existing standards, they carry out the work as per standards(check) and Act i.e take actions where actual is deviated from the standard.

Generally, there will resistance for standard work if the operators do not understand it.  Once they understand, and the standard work in place, productivity, job satisfaction, and improvement increase.

Once the standard work in place, Kaizen should be done to improve the current standard work by involving all the employees.

There are Six Characteristics of Standard Work

– Standard Work Must Be Current – Standard Work Must Be Complete – Standard Work Must Be Clear – Standard Work Must Be Correct – Standard Work Must Be Concise – Standard Work Must Be Communicated
