TIMWOOD
The "D" in TIMWOOD stands for
What is Defects
The rate at which you need to produce to meet your customer demand
What is Takt
The most basic cause that, when fixed, will prevent the problem’s recurrence
What is Root Cause
Sort and Set are elements of this foundational process
What is 5-S
Within a process, these kill flow
What are Decisions
This waste is caused by disorganization, poor work sequence, poor process or poor layout
What is Motion
Taking ownership, dealing with abnormalities and not walking past problems are all concepts within this principle
What is On-The-Spot-Responsibility
This action is intended to eliminate a root cause from recurring
What is Corrective Action
This metric measures how well we manage the time we have available
What is Utilization
We need to shift the _______ , to achieve our annual goals and mission
What is Paradigm
This waste is caused by unnecessary movement of parts, double-handling of materials, or shuffling of inventory to get access to the right components
What is Transportation
Removing waste, reducing non-value added and challenging value added activities is the basis of this principle
What is Zero Waste
By repeatedly asking this question, it’s possible to learn a process or discover a root cause
What is Why (5-Why's)
This metrics measures how capable we are at achieving the “ideal time”
What is Efficiency
This philosophy is used to systematically eliminate waste
What is Lean
This waste is the "best waste" and the easiest to reduce or eliminate
What is Waiting
This principle uses Visual Factory and 5-S to make abnormalities apparent
What is Transparency
This will potentially stop a production system
What is a Defect
This eliminates tribal knowledge, reduces variation within a process and provides a baseline for continuous improvement
What is Standard Work (tWO, eWO, Work Instructions, etc.)
Transportation, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Over-processing, Overproduction and Defects can be summarized as this
What are the 7-Wastes
This waste occurs when you are doing more work than required to meet specification
What is Over-Processing
This reveals errors within the system/process
What is Flow
This concept plugs holes or prevents alignment within the system or process
What is Error Proofing (Swiss Cheese Model)
Use this concept to divide work evenly across multiple work stations to maximize output and achieve takt
What is Line Balancing
The concept of identifying and eliminating waste while incrementally improving processes
What is Continuous Improvement
