SUMMARY:Half-Day Lean Process Improvement Class - Pulaski Innovation Center
DESCRIPTION: Dive Deeper into Process Improvement with GENEDGE: Master the Mechanics of Manufacturing!\nREGISTER HERE\nJoin us at the Pulaski Innovation Center in Fairlawn\, VA for a transformative half-day lean overview paired with hands-on simulation\, this interactive training accommodates 10-13 keen learners. \nWhat’s In Store? \n\nParticipants will go through three quick simulation rounds to teach concepts. Operators will build K’nex “Widgets” to simulate a traditional manufacturing operation.\nA Training overview will address standard lean tools and improvement methodologies\, including lot size reduction\, single piece flow and simulation results will demonstrate impacts to business in lead-times\, profitability and productivity.\nIn the simulation’s third-round the team applies concepts of kaizen and process improvement to create their own process flow\, which they can see the results of the changes and improvements over the three rounds.\n\nWitness Remarkable Results in Just Three Rounds! \nCycle time reduction of 80%\n90% reduction in WIP\n60% reduction of floor space\nUp to 150% increase in number of units shipped\n70% Increase in profit. \nTopics covered include: \n• Definition of Lean\n• 8 types of waste\n• Value add vs non-value add activities\n• Standard work\n• 5 S and visual management\n• Batch manufacturing and lot size reduction\n• Pull systems and Kanban\n• Point of use storage\n• Line balancing\n• Teamwork and kaizen\n• Plant layout \nReserve Your Spot & Ignite Operational Excellence With GENEDGE!\nINSTRUCTOR: Cheryl A. Carrico\, PH.D.\, P.E. \nCOST IS $275.00PP \nREGISTER HERE
