4 Center 2700: Neutron Generator Enterprise How are we the same as the rest of Sandia? We have an unwavering commitment to National Security ( Exceptional Service in the National Interest ). How are we different? We design and produce a limited life component. We have responsibility for the entire product lifecycle of our component ( DA and PA ). We have the most advanced Lean Culture in the laboratory (Continuous Improvement, Focus on the Customer, Eliminate Waste). 7 Neutron Generator Role in Weapons Performance A neutron generator produces 14 MeV neutrons The fusion of D2 and T3 gives He4 + n MeV Neutrons must enter the pit at critical mass to initiate the fission chain reaction. Timing Reliability Neutron Generators are Miniature Particle Accelerators 8 4

7 Training System Prior to JI 13 System Flaws 14 7

8 System Flaws No certified trainer requirements other than completion of OJT100 Course No follow-up after Course No oversight of operator training or trainer proficiency One Generic Lesson Guide (plus TWD) for every process Knowledge preservation weak Tribal knowledge used more than TWDs in many instances Training diluted over time First-time production yields < goal for several processes 15 Introduction of JI 2010 Art Smalley (President, Art of Lean, Inc. and Sandia consultant) Introduces JI to NG Management Management realizes Reasons Why vastly missing from TWDs Decision is made to try JI JI implementation assigned to staff member Core training team established Art Smalley Mentor Original Staff Member Lead One or two individuals from each production floor 16 8

9 Introduction of JI First 10-hour JI classes taught by JI Lead Team Leads Technologists Operators Pilot developed for operators to author JIBs Limited JI training begins with operators training operators 17 Introduction of JI cont d. Success was marginal Operator from Team paired with retiring SME (subject matter expert) Tribal knowledge captured using JIB methodology (MS, KP, RW) Some info used to update/modify TWDs New operator trained in three months Gaps still evident between JIBs and TWDs Actual work done by operators and documented work maintained by technologists differed Maintenance of too many documents Experiment begins with embedding JI within TWDs 18 9

10 OJT/JI Becomes Official 2014 New Lesson Plan template developed Satisfies OJT Requirements Embraces JI TWD template developed for ease of embedding JI Management split between use of JIBs or JI embedded TWDs for training 75% of the production operation departments decide on JI embedded TWDs Remaining 25% created JIBs as appendices to TWDs 19 OJT/JI Becomes Official 2016 Process of embedding JI into TWDs now taking place within all departments OJT100 course is still delivered by Sandia s Corporate Training Department Job Instruction Training of trainers and operators remains as recommended by TWI 20 10

11 Benefits of Embedding JI TWD and training documentation automatically remain aligned Standard work implementation becomes a team effort Tribal knowledge captured Maintain and Train to one document, versus several Consistency of training Easier version control of training Less time reviewing Avoidance of audit trap 21 Production Training Requirements Corporate Training Requirements: Trainers shall complete OJT100 class Six-Step OJT lesson plan shall be created and maintained for Medium and High rigor level processes OJT lesson plans are required to be followed and are auditable for Medium and High rigor level processes OJT lesson plans recommended for Low rigor level processes 22 11

12 Production Training Requirements Neutron Generator Production Training Requirements: Plus Trainers and operators shall complete 10 hr. JI training class All TWDs shall be embedded with JI along with implementation of standard work by OJT/JI trained authors One OJT lesson plan shall be created for each TWD TWD training records are maintained in Operator Training & Qualification database Cross Training Matrix is maintained to identify training gaps and management reporting

New TWD or major revision? No Operator trained to previous Rev.? Yes Review changes with Operator(s). Process Technologist Yes Negotiate schedule commitment for OJT/ JI Training with Team Lead, Production Planner and OJT/ JI Training Coordinator (if necessary). May be accomplished during pre-job release meeting. No Train Operator per lesson plan. Communicate progress (plan vs. actual) during daily meeting. Monitor training (every 2 metrics). OJT/ JI Training Coordinator and/ or Team Lead New Operator Assigned TWD(s) in Training Matrix & Training Database. Confirm training in Training Database. Assign Trainee Operator and Exp. Operator (if necessary) for training during AM meeting. Production Planner Provide availability of product and/ or process to train on

20 HOW TO GET READY TO INSTRUCT 3. GET EVERYTHING READY (Per OJT-JI Lesson Plan) The proper equipment, tools, materials and whatever needed to aid instruction 4. ARRANGE THE WORKSITE Neatly, as in actual working conditions

21 HOW TO INSTRUCT 1. PREPARE THE WORKER Put the person at ease State the job Find out what the person already knows Get the person interested in learning the job Place the person in the correct position (during demo) 41 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example (Cont.) 42 21

22 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example 43 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example 2. PRESENT THE OPERATION Tell, show and illustrate one Major Step at a time Do it again stressing Key Points Do it again stating Reasons for key points Instruct clearly, completely and patiently, but don t give them more information than they can master at one time 44 22

23 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example 3. TRY-OUT PERFORMANCE Have the person do the job-correct errors Have the person explain each Major Step to you as they do the job again Have the person explain each Key Point to you as they do the job again Have the person explain Reasons for key points to you as they do the job again Make sure the person understands Continue until you know they know 45 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example Step 4 FOLLOW UP Put the person on their own Designate who the person goes to for help Check on the person frequently Encourage questions Taper off Extra coaching and close follow-up IF THE WORKER HASN T LEARNED, THE INSTRUCTOR HASN T TAUGHT (cont.) 46 23

24 OJT-JI Lesson Plan Example 47 Procedure: OJT/ JI Training Execution Flow Process Technologist Continue training until Trainee passes evaluation AND Trainer and Trainee agree training is complete. Process Technologist and Operator input completion in Training Database (if OJT was required). OJT/ JI Training Coordinator and/ or Team Lead Qualify Operator. Update Training Matrix.
