This five-day workshop develops knowledge and skills for developing pull-scheduling
systems to be used where continuous flow is not yet possible. Participants will
learn how to determine appropriate levels of inventory needed to maintain production
schedules with minimum waste. Participants will learn how to develop and deploy
kanbans for real-time shop floor production scheduling and inventory management.
Participants will also learn how to determine the cost savings from supermarket-pull
scheduling.
The goals are to:
- Develop knowledge and skills for deploying supermarkets & kanbans to control inventory
levels and to schedule the production and delivery of raw materials, work-in-process
and finished goods inventories
- Develop understanding of supermarkets, pull scheduling
and kanbans
- Provide guided practice in the deployment of supermarket pull systems
using kanbans in a live manufacturing or assembly process
- Identify and quantify
the cost savings from the improved inventory control and production scheduling performance
resulting from the use of pull scheduling
