F-22 Lean • Concept • Why Lean? • What does it mean? • Progress To Date • Boeing • LM Ft Worth • LM Marietta • Challenges
F-22 Lean: The Concept • Why? • To save the program money • To save the industrial base • (To save the program) • What is it? • Mindset, cultural change • Common sense, real means to improve • AIWs, Kaizens, Kaikakus, TOC, 6 Sigma, etc • And everything Snod said F-22 Can Be More Affordable Through Lean

Fort Worth Lean Blitz events in 2000 • Mate Longeron Installation (Build Team) • Operator travel reduced 84% • Span time reduced 50% (from 6 to 3 M-days) • Touch labor reduced 47% • Tool Trial Run (Airframe / Production Control) • Span time reduced 95% • Tools tracked and scheduled in MRP • Eliminates post inspection tasks • Module 4 Upper Surface (Build Team) • Optimize workstation design and layout • Conducted 19-26 June
Current Process - Bore Fixture • Process Baseline was 14 M-days • Boring/Spotfacing - 3 days • Hinge Installation - 11 days • Boring must be complete prior to working hinges on structure • Two fixtures required to meet planned rate • Boring/Main Weapons Bays Hinges on critical path for Mid Fuselage

Fwd Fuselage Build Improvements Overhead utilities improve safety and improve quality by providing light, air,vacuum, electricity right where it’s needed. Storage racks for POU alignment tools eliminates walking for retrieval and storage Work / storage tables provide locations for all parts and kits needed to perform work in area. 6 S's Point of Use Kitting Work Sequencing
Challenges • Visionary Leadership • Middle-management (IPT) buy-in • Cultural Change • Supplier Partnerships (e.g. LM-Boeing) • Leaning out Suppliers Supply Chain Must be Lean from Top to Bottom
