Lean Thinking and the eight - waste Sources

The phrase "do not waste, do not want" is incredibly accurate when applied to organizations. Even in the best-managed companies, waste is everywhere.

Some lean professionals use the analogy of putting on their waste glasses, when they do, they say they see waste everywhere!

  • errors Rework-making
  • Using more space than you should
  • stocks excess
  • takes too long to develop and produce their own services
  • the use of more machines than necessary
  • using too many people.
MUDA

Muda is the Japanese name for the waste and the waste is all around you, in the company you work in, in their own society and in the lives of all the days.

You waste time queuing at the post office or bank, you waste your time in traffic, you waste your time and energy to looking for things in your office, throwing things out of your closet and fridge because they are past their expiration date is a waste!

speaks meager eight types of waste

1. Free-Motion product or material among processing operations. More exercise = more waste. poor layout, if its a factory floor, office or desk.

2. Pending-Each time an employee (or) is idle is a waste. Poor paperwork, lack of education, poor work loads etc.

3. Overproduction producing more of the customer's costs wants.-inventory, transportation, labor, raw material costs etc. etc.

4. Defects- Anything that can not meet the specifications. Any process that fails to transform / alter the product / service, in some way is considered non-value added. However, some non-value added processes are sometimes a requirement.

5. Inventory- inventory is not an added value. It may be necessary, but it is still waste. Consumes finances, space, etc., and is at risk of becoming damaged or obsolete. The food, for example, could ruin, some products may become obsolete. It can also cover other inefficiencies, such as inefficient processes and bad labor practices.

6. Motion-Any movement of a person that does not add value is waste. Walking is the most obvious, but also includes bending, lifting, twisting, reaching, etc.

7. In the processed (sometimes called extra processing) This is talking about all the processes that do not add value to the product. So things like, protective packaging together with processes or say deburring after galvanizing.

8. If not used knowledge / intelligence-not using the knowledge / skills of people within the company.
