FACTWISE REPORTONFACILITY LAYOUTFOR NEW VIEW TECHNOLOGIES CHANDRASEKHAR GANDURI ROHAN GAVANDE KRISHNAN V KUMAR SAMIK RAYCHAUDHURI
Methodology SUBDIVIDED INTO 3 PHASES • PHASE-I: Rough-cut calculations for giving a basic idea of number of machines, number of operators, shifts per hour, number of cells, batch size and total cost. • PHASE-II: Simulation for fixing number of machines, number of operators, level of cross-training, buffer-size and operator assignment. Preliminary calculation of initial cost and operating cost. Rough layout of cells. • PHASE-III: Finalizing overall layout and detailed layout for cells and office spaces. Finalizing material handling method. Projecting cost estimates.
Operations Policy Cells are operating 1 Shift per day of 8 hours each. 1 Hour overtime for 3rd Year in Cell# 1 (For model# 860) and Cell# 3 (For model# 1080). 5 working days per week, 50 weeks per year : Total 250 days. Cross-training level of operators are same, with additional cross-training in after 2 years. Buffer sizes between machines are kept to 20 units. Batch size is equal to a day’s order.
Anatomy of the Facility • Layout • Material Handling • Communication • Utilities • Building
Layout Four Phases of Systematic Layout Planning • Location • Overall / Block Layout • Detailed / Cell Layout • Implementation
Communication • Computers and modern information system are used for storage and retrieval of data. • One Information Systems Manager • Digital Information access to managers and above. • For production support, open office structure facilitates communication.
Utilities • Maintenance, compressors and spare parts. • Maintenance and Facilities Supervisor. • Auxiliary utilities like recreation room, training rooms, conference rooms, medical facilities, cafeteria are provided.
Material Handling and Storage Four Phases of Material Handling Analysis • External Integration • Overall Handling Plan • Detailed Handling Plan • Installation
MH : Overall Handling • Based on: • basic system of moves • Type of equipments • Transport unit or containers • Equipments used are: • Walkie-Pallet Truck • Gravity-roller conveyor • Wooden and Steel Pallets
MH : Detailed Handling • Material Control System • Material Handling Dimensions: Movement, Quantity, Time, Space & Control
MH and Storage Statistics and Cost • Battery powered Walkie-Pallet Truck : 1 @ $5000 • Steel Pallets : 15 @ $150 each = $2250 • Wooden Pallets : 21 @ $120 each = $2520 • Gravity Roller Conveyors : 205 ft. @ $8 /ft. = $1640 • Conveyor Kits : 600 @ $5 each = $3000 • Storage Shelves : 20 @$30 each = $600
Operation Policies Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both. - Robert Frost, The Road not taken
Performance Measures Tell me how you measure me and I will tell you how to behave. If you measure me in an illogical way do not be surprised by illogical behavior. - Dr.Eli Goldratt,The Haystack Syndrome
Performance Measures • External Oriented Measures: Cost based : Cost to Customer Investment indices–ROI,Payback Inventory Operational expense other financial accounting measures
Performance Measures • External Oriented Measures: Non cost based : Lead times Delivery Reliability Flexibility in production
Performance Measures • Internal Oriented Measures: Should be process oriented than result oriented. - Work In Process - Scrap Costs - Cell Throughput - Unit cost - Quality related Measurements - Cell team performance - Space utilization
Performance Incentives Motivation is the art of getting people to do what you want them to do because they want to do it. -Dwight Eisenhower
Performance Incentives Rewards need to be more monetary and non monetary Monetary rewards : Team based awards : Skill Based pay Schemes Non-Monetary rewards : Public recognition Best cell teams
Training Policy • Operators are cross-trained to minimize costs and obtain benefits that come with knowledge. • Initial cross-training level is based on operator background and projected operator idle time. • Operators who jell together as a team should be cross trained • Consultants with proven experience in successfully implementing CM should be hired to educate operators and managers about CM and their broadened job roles. • Operators should be encouraged to take initiative and experiment with new methods to solve the problems.
Quality Policy • Strict quality policy is followed. • Separate manager for Quality Assurance : One technician and one co-op to help him. • Strategies like TQM should be implemented to get the full benefits of CM • Cell teams should be encouraged to come up with innovative solutions to tackle quality problems • Quality problems in incoming material is routinely communicated to suppliers.
Shipping, Receiving and Loading • Inbound and outbound shipments are outsourced. • Quality of inbound raw material and outbound finished goods are responsibility of freight forwarders. • Choice of shipment agents are fixed for three months, and reviewed after that on the basis of performance.
Scrap Policy • Present scrap rate is 7-8% of production, which is uncontrolled random scrap. • Scraps were reduced by removing setup and implementing SPC and PM. • MH equipment also handle scraps produced by the workstations: § Pallets have colored shelve for scraps. § Space between gravity conveyors are used for scraps too. • Company has a environment-friendly recycle policy.
Maintenance Policy • Separate Supervisor for maintenance. • The Preventive Maintenance will be done in machine idle time to allow for undisrupted production. • Cell teams will be trained to look for potential problems and focus on finding the cause of breakdown quickly and develop measures to prevent its reoccurrence.
Inventory Policy • Separate warehouse for incoming material and finished LCD’s. • Company tries to maintain minimum raw material inventory: 2-3 days of inventory is stored in warehouse. • Incoming material and finished product inventory are monitored using software. • 3 days of production capacity is stored in finished good inventory.
