Standards are rules or procedures that provide clear expectations of quality, quantity, weight, dimension, or action. They produce order and safety in our lives and workplaces by defining what we should do or anticipate in different situations. This Lean Manufacturing training course in Standardized Work begins by defining standards and explains their role in Lean Manufacturing, then discusses types and levels of standards. Learners will also study interpreting a production capacity sheet for manufacturing capacity planning, as well as how to interpret standardized work combination tables, job element sheets, and standardized work charts. This course also covers how standards are created, communicated, and improved. Finally, learners will delve into Genba Kanri and associated techniques like the Gemba Walk, which preaches that the best improvement ideas will come from managers being present on and walking around the manufacturing environment.
