HEFF Activity

This case study examines efforts to reduce the lead time for producing beverages at FeVer Beverages from 16.26833 minutes to 15 minutes. Data analysis identified processes as having the largest gap versus the target time. A project was defined to focus on processes and factors affecting average lead time, with metrics of assembly yield and skill quality. Process mapping, a SIPOC diagram, data collection plans, and a waste walk were conducted. Root cause analysis pointed to insufficient materials during preparation extending lead times, which was validated through boxplot analysis. An implementation plan was created to address this through visual management of materials.

DEFINE PHASE
LEAD TIME - Yield Improvement
Lead time Yield Improvement
Business Case Objective Statement
To support the strategic initiative of ensuring product quality and To reach the lead-time yield from 16.26833 mins to 15 mins
reducing lead-time, Yield Improvement projects are being driven which is a difference of 1.26833 mins by the end of week 28
and supported by the Top Management.
Project Scope
As identified using the FeVer Beverage Data, Process has the
largest gap of 1.26833 mins versus the lead-time target of 15 mins This project will focus on the processes and factors affecting
for yield management. the average lead-time.
