The problem!

• “Lean” has become a global movementg

• There is a somewhat standard tool set (VSM, kanban, cells, hoshin

kanri, standardized work sheets, kaizen events…)

• Applying the right tools to the right problem can produce results

BUT:

• The results are rarely sustainable

T t th d l l t h li th t l th

Liker Lean Advisors, LLC

• Toyota, the model, rarely teaches or applies these tools as they are

introduced by consultants

The Secret Sauce at Toyota is Developing Leaders who engage and develop people in problem solving

Example of Toyota Profound Teaching:

Gary Convis (NUMMI): “There has been a mistake in the body h Th hi l t th th i fshop.  The machines are so close together there is no room for inventory buffers.  We will continually shut down the plant.”

Toyota Sensei:  “That was no mistake.  Please fix the problems.”

What is Leader Standard Work?• The repetitive activities are 

designed to identify abnormal situations such as:– Non‐standard work – Non‐standard labor– Non‐standard inventory– Non‐standard output

• This is done where the work takes place, “The GEMBA”

HK Drives Kaizen at all Levels:Toyota Business Practices for Warranty Reduction

TBP Step Warranty Reduction Problem Solving

1. Clarify the Problem vs Ideal State

Ideal is customers who are completely satisfied. Currently some customers are inconvenienced by automotive problems.

2. Grasp the Present Situation and See the Gaps

Too many customers are bringing in Toyota vehicles for warranty work which costs them time and satisfaction and costs Toyota money.

3. Breakdown Problem and Set Warranty problems originate in product development (e.g., poor error proofing), are Targets contributed to in manufacturing (e.g., errors) and discovered in the field.

Immediate focus will be on manufacturing through to customer feedback and response. Target=60% reduction.

4. Analyze Underlying Causes Manufacturing--poor understanding of potential errors throughout manufacturing process and miss defects in inspection.

Feedback and response--Problems in field not well diagnosed and communicated and requests for changes are diffuse and ineffective.

5. Develop Countermeasures Manufacturing--Built-in Quality with Ownership at every work process + improved inspection process.

Feedback and response--System for finding root causes of warranty returns and streamlining feedback to appropriate engineering design function.

6. See Countermeasures Through Deployed through global network of leaders who take responsibility.

7. Monitor Results and Processes Monitored closely over seven years with continual adjustment.

8. Standardize and Spread Many new processes were standardized in manufacturing, engineering and sales. Work progressed further on root cause: better training and development of engineers and standardization in engineering, built--in quality with ownership in manufacturing, and an improved warranty reporting system in sales.
