3 agenda What s a Supply Chain anyway Managing the Lean Supply Chain Focus: extending Lean to suppliers Top 5 Supply Chain strategic imperatives A strategy for competitive advantage: the Supply Chain Quiz Summary

4 Delivering products and services quickly to the end customer with minimum waste.

5 the supply/value chain Your suppliers supplier Your supplier You Your customer Your customers customer

6 in the beginning Ultimate success of your business will be decided by your customers; Customers buying decisions are based on quality, service, price and availability; Customers expectations will change over time; Must clearly define value and add value to what the customers perceive adds value!

7 Do you have standards? Do you adhere to them?

8 What is a Supply Chain anyway? A Supply Chain is an integrated set of key business processes involved in the sourcing, procurement, and logistics activities from end user through original suppliers within and across companies that add value to customers and stakeholders. this includes integration, coordination and collaboration with channel partners: suppliers, intermediaries, third party service providers, and customers. It s a lot. Source: Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals and goldsby OSU

9 Initial Suppliers Consumers/End-customers the Supply Chain: the new domain Tier 3 to Initial suppliers Tier 2 Suppliers 1 Tier 1 Suppliers Tier 1 Customers Tier 2 Customers 1 Tier 3 to Consumers/ End-Customers 2 2 n 1 1 n 1 n n 2 3 n 3 n n 1 2 n 1 n The OEM Company Members of the OEM s Supply Chain thanks to Tom Goldsby and The Ohio State University

10 what are we trying to do? To have the right products in the right quantities at the right place at the right moment at minimal cost translating into customer satisfaction.

11 making supply match demand D I C Where: D = Demand P = Plan P I = Inventory C = Capacity keep in mind: balance is more easily achieved with a shorter board not only can the boxes be altered but so can the position of the fulcrum thanks to Tom Goldsby and The Ohio State University

12 Initial Suppliers Consumers/End-customers who hears the demand signal? n 1 1 n 1 n n 2 3 n 3 n n 1 2 n 1 n P U S H Guess thanks to Tom Goldsby and The Ohio State University P U L L Know

13 Resiliency Natural disasters Terrorist attacks The economy Piracy Swine Flu

14 Volatility An exception or The Norm or Self induced

15 What happens when the signal is suppressed? Retail orders from customers +10% Distributors orders from retailers +16% DC orders from distributors +28% Manufacturing output +40% Baseline forecast Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May June July Aug. Sept.

17 so Supply Chain Management...is the planning, management, and integration of key business processes involved in the sourcing, procurement, and logistics activities from end user through original suppliers within and across companies that add value to customers and stakeholders. this includes integration, coordination and collaboration with channel partners: suppliers, intermediaries, third party service providers, and customers.

19 The practical realities

20 Cash is King

21 Nobel Prize winning economist agree A primary function of a company is reducing or eliminating transaction cost. Financial Times 2008

22 Consider this How do you make money? How do you spend money? Where s the contribution? Where s the improvement focus?

23 does the right hand know? unknown internet source

24 know your cost and there are a lot!

27 managing the chain Strategic Focus Product flow Information flow Material flow Financial flow Location Production Inventory Logistics

28 managing the chain Supplier Relations Open communication of expectations plan, alignment, and deployment a direct communication program A series of standardized processes waste elimination ideal and reliable methods experimentation Building capabilities

29 managing the chain Supplier Relations expectations: Supplier Qualification Standardized assessment of capabilities Supplier Performance Requirements KPI s: quality, lead time, total cost, and participation Supplier Development OEM enablers to enhance competitive advantage

30 Do you have standards? Do you adhere to them?

31 managing the chain Supplier Relations building capabilities Strive for perfect quality Reduce cost of quality Provide prompt feedback Increase flexibility Deliver supplies frequently Lean = Zero waste Make money DFM/DFA/DFC Stable configurations Shorter lead times Zero incoming testing Minimized reporting Lean = Zero waste Make money

33 The Extended Lean Enterprise Capital Suppliers Regulatory Bodies Consortium Companies TECHNICAL Environment and Energy FLOW PULL MARKET IN Value Adding Transformation Process MARKET OUT SOCIAL RESPONSE AND FEEDBACK LOOP

34 an Extended Lean improvement perspective...supply chain continuous improvement to cost, quality, delivery, and capability through the progressive identification and elimination of all non-value adding waste with the involvement of stakeholders at all levels: employees, customers, and suppliers

36 A Lean Transfusion

37 a common theme Activities All work shall be highly specified as to content, sequence, timing and outcome. Reliable, ideal methods. Embed a test in every activity that signals if an activity has been performed in a non-standard way. Connections Every customer-supplier connection must be direct and their must be an unambiguous yes-or-no way to send requests and receive responses. Embed a test in every connection that signals that a delivery did not match customer request. Flows The pathway for every product and service must be simple and direct. Embed a test in every pathway that signals when someone other than an expected supplier does a task. Learning All improvements must be made in accordance with the scientific method, under the guidance of a teacher, at the lowest possible level in the organization. Embed a test in every learning to show evidence of cause and effect.

41 Importance of project management Your business is comprised of projects varying in scope and complexity Customer satisfaction is directly tied to project performance Company profits are directly tied to project performance All projects must align with strategic intent Achieve standard work

42 the attack waste anything that adds cost without adding value the target collapse the time it takes to monitor, order, receive, process products, provide services, complete transactions, make decisions, and deliver the goods

43 waste out: upstream-downstream Employee Involvement Value Stream Management 5S - Visual Display & Control Quick Changeover TPM/Equipment Reliability Mistake Proofing Cell Design Process Flow Kanban Lean Administration Variation Reducton Process/Product Engineering High Performance Work Place Scientific Method Cause & Effect Standard Work A common theme: all lean methods and techniques are scientific and reliable, based upon the principles of system, feedback, and local control.

53 Kanban Literal translation is sign board. In the context of production, it refers to the signal or authorization from a customer to a supplier to produce. Material moves only when the customer signals a need. what s a supermarket? A supermarket ties together two separate processes with a pull system. It controls and levels production upstream. It is used when continuous flow is broken due to distance and/or process technology limitations, and right-sizing is not an option. Downstream customers withdraw items from the front of each supermarket; upstream suppliers replenish the supermarket from behind. The supermarket prevents over-production by upstream processes and replaces costly and inaccurate MRP systems.

54 Lean Administration The lean office goal: to flow the processes and reduce the probability of variances that prevent the organization from achieving its value adding objectives. A systemic approach to integrating people, systems, processes, tasks, procedures, instructions, equipment, physical layouts, and the environment to reflect and build-off each other.

55 Product/Process Engineering A systematic approach to creating a product design that considers all elements of the product life cycle from conception throughout disposal. Multidisciplinary teams co-design all desired product characteristics producing a more robust design that is tolerant of manufacturing and use variation at a higher quality and at a lesser cost.

56 CEDAC Variation Reduction CATEGORY Opportunity PDCA DMAIC FMEA Target: < 50% Fact Idea Analysis Must experiment and have scientific methods for getting to root cause

57 Standard Work Standardization of policy, sequence, timing, flows, method, skills, learning and outcomes for all we do Rules defining standards for how work is to be performed Improvement in the workplace begins with adherence to standard A standard is the documented expression of the best method known at a given point in time; it enforces that method until a better one comes along.
