BATCHIN!
Why Something So Wrong
Can Seem So Right
Why do so many of us have a difficult time understanding
why Batch Processing is bad and single piece flow is better? Because we
batch so much in our own personal lives!
This energetic and fun training tape will demonstrate
many wasteful batch processing activities in our own home and personal
lives, why they are so prevalent, and why we resist single piece flow
or smaller batches. It then challenges us to eliminate waste in our own
personal lives and bring that spirit to the work environment.
Mike Micklewright shows how to improve one in-home process
– the laundry process – by demonstrating a Current State Map,
a Future State Map, 5S-ing the closet, and a variety of other kaizen events
to dramatically decrease the Lead Time and Cycle Time.
