• A series of activities that transforms a set of inputs, into a specific set of outputs. Workforce, instructions (SOP) and equipment are involved in these activities and required forequipment are involved in these activities and required for information flow and material treatment.

• A process can be analyzed with respect to:Cost– Cost

Benefits of Process Maps

• Basis for the Cause & Effect matrix

• Basis for the FMEABasis for the FMEA

• Inputs for the capability summary

• Inputs for Multivari Studies• Inputs for Multivari-Studies

• A living document

– Process description (ISO …)

– Basis for “on the job training”

Practical Exercise with the Catapult

King Louis has an strong interest to conquer the castle Frankenstein This castle is a strategic important point andFrankenstein. This castle is a strategic important point and gives his enemy King George currently the opportunity to control a part of King Louis kingdom.control a part of King Louis kingdom.

The master carpenter of King Louis has developed a new prototype of weapon a catapult The King wants to usenew prototype of weapon, a catapult. The King wants to use the catapult to take over castle Frankenstein in order to ensure independency and freedom.depe de cy d eedo .

Your assignment is to create a process map for the installation process and the launch process The King willinstallation process and the launch process. The King will specify later where the catapult has to be set up in relation to the castle. The condition may change from day to day, so that y g y y,the shooting distance to the castle will vary as well.

Reduction of Cycle Times – Process Analysis

Definition:• A step is value adding if:• A step is value adding if:

– the customer recognizes the value– the product changes, ande p oduc c a ges, a d– when it is done the first time

• A step is waste if:– it needs more than the minimum of equipment, material, parts,

d k ti th t i b l t f lspace and work time that is absolute necessary for value adding.

• A step is needed / necessary if:– it is required due to law, a regulation or a contractq , g– it is required for health, safety and environment or for ethical

reasons

Create a Functional Process Map

• The top level diagram is the foundation

• Select a team

• Team tasks:Team tasks:

– Collection of all process steps (Hint: Post It‘s),

Grouping in accordance to functions– Grouping in accordance to functions,

– What is running parallel or what depends on each other,

– Collection of inputs and outputs for each step,

– What are the min - max times for each step,

– Important: all rework loops have to be included

• After completion a practical check is neededp p

• Get feedback from others involved in the process
