Lean Setup!®

This kit teaches how to operate a stop watch, conduct an observational study with clipboard and excel study sheets, time each task, identify each task as Value, Essential or Non-Value added, work as a team to analyze and brainstorm lean solutions, separate internal vs external activity, and finally reinforces the Lean principles of setup time reduction in a kaizen setting.

In only one to two hours your team will obtain business fundamentals, have a fun time, and retain the knowledge of key LEAN principles.

• Setup time is everywhere! Setup time is 100% waste!
  
• Setting up surgical rooms 4 to 20 times per day!
  
• Avoiding setting up production machines because it takes hours or days!
  
• Turning-around hundreds of blood lab results daily, and living with the delays!
  
• Employees arriving hours before shift start to “Set Up”!

How did we reduce surgical room turnover time 75%, from 2.5 hours to 35 min?

How did we reduce a machine’s changeover time 70%, from 20 to 6 hours (pineapple, soup & drink can machines) and gaining one month of annual capacity?
