Project 4B: DMAIC at Dymo
Define Phase: Executive Summary
Project Status Unable to control Inventory efficiently
Current State
Existing process involves multiple departments manipulating data received from other departments to serve their purposes
Findings Defining product families & market segments is inconsistent across departments
Next Steps Initiate BI project to address efficiency issues
Define Phase: Using BI
Business Intelligence can enhance:
Process Improvement
By creating a central data warehouse to manage each department’s information rather than in multiple places
Leadership Decision Making
By developing standard reports via a common definition of SKU, product family and market segment, etc…
Define Phase: Summary of LSS Tools
“Be the recognized leader in innovative solutions that help people organize & identify their world.”
Customer Requirements Who’s the Customer?: Sales, Finance, Production & Demand Voice of the Customer: Reliable data to assist in decision making

Measure Phase: Executive Summary
Project Status Investigating inconsistency between market segment and product family definitions
Current State
Sales, demand and production plans created are inconsistent, resulting in high inventory levels
Findings Inconsistencies in SKU linkage, product family and market segment definitions
Next Steps Analyze the data collected to validate relationships between variation of inventory and the information gap.
Measure Phase: Using BI
Business Intelligence can enhance:
Process Improvement
A cause and effect diagram shows possible factors that might be causing the inaccurate projections
Leadership Decision Making
By eliminating other causes and narrowing down on the causes that warrant further investigation, Management can then take corrective action

Inconsistent SKU linkage

Analyze Phase: Executive Summary
Project Status Validate relationships between variation of inventory and information gap.
Current State Demand plan is created from sales forecast, which in turn
determines the production plan. Inventory is byproduct of these.
Findings The inconsistency between demand plan and production
plan could be the culprit in inventory spikes.
Next Steps Improve demand and production plan using BI tool
Analysis Phase: Using BI
Provide better understanding of how inventory varies along with a number of factors such as
The gap between demand plan and production plan
The mismatches of SKU among different departments such as marketing department, sales department, production department, and finance department
Enhance Inventory Management Decision Making Enhance Demand Plan Enhance Production Plan
Analysis Phase: Summary of LSS Tools
Qualitative Analysis Cause and Effect Diagram Understanding the causes of inventory variation
Quantitative Analysis Regression Analysis To verify the impacts of inconsistency between production
plan and demand plan.

PlanConclusion
The linear relationship between inventory and gap between production plan and demand plan is significant
However, such a gap doesn’t explain the full variance of inventory as it is proposed to be
Need improvement on both demand plan and production plan
Improve Phase : Executive Summary
Project Status Improve demand and production plan utilizing BI system
Current State Existing process is inconsistent across departments causing demand production plan to be inaccurate.
Findings We are able to reduce touch points and streamline process by making simple changes; This introduces accuracy and efficiency.
Next Steps Create uniform control system to keep integrity of the data/process
Improve Phase: Using BI
BI system streamlines reports and queries that return consistent results
BI system maintains data integrity by making SKU/Material pair unique and define product family and market segment
BI system reduces touch points that can introduce random inconsistency in the current process.
Improve Phase: LSS Tools
Current State Diagram Develop current state Identifying where breaks occur/major opportunities for
improvement Point out key touch points
Future State Diagram Develop future state diagram Simplifies the process with quick/simple changes Creates a desirable level of output
Improve Phase: Current Process Map
Sales Creates a Sales Plan by
market Segment
Demand adjusts sales plan creating a Demand plan by Product group
Production Creates a production plan
based on Demand Plan
Finance creates Budget and Margin at aggregate level.
SKU belongs to which Product
Family?
I need Margin &
Budget by SKU
What group does the material
belong to?
How does material ID tie to SKU/market
segment?

Control Phase: Executive Summary
Project Status Introduce Controls in process management and planning
Current State Existing process contains no control or ownership structure in place which causes defects and mistakes to occur.
Findings By introducing a control priority structure we can measure and control the defects.
Next Steps Continuous improvement and control
Control Phase: Using BI
Use BI system to streamline reports and queries that return consistent results
Exception reporting to show mismatches in SKU/Material linkage.
Exception reporting to show mismatches in supply plan, demand plan and production plan
Control Phase: LSS Tools

detection and prevention methods
