Defining Value
13
Muda ≡ Waste
• Muda means waste, or any activity
for which the customer is not
willing to pay
• Muda is the opposite of value,
which is simply what a customer is
willing to pay for
• Human motion can be divided into
three categories:
• Actual work: Refers to any
motion that adds value to the
product or service
• Auxiliary work: Motion that
supports actual work; usually
occurs before or after the
actual work
• Muda: Motion that creates
no value

The 7 Waste Model:
TIMWOOD
Inventory Too many finished goods in inventory, WIP inventory, • Batch Production The inventory must be dimensioned based on the real
raw material inventory • Longest set-up time actual and on the supplier delivery time
• Bottleneck
• Lack of continuous flow
• Push organization
Motion Not Value-Added movement of people and machines • Inefficient layout and process flow Remove unnecessary motion and improve disposition of
• Lack of standardization material in the workplace
Waiting Customer waiting, waiting for materials, waiting for • Bottleneck Maximize “Value Adding” time to reduce waiting and to
employees • Lack of continuous flow arrange processes in a continuous flow approach
• Lack standardization
• Unbalanced workload
Overproduction Overproduction happens when a process produces • Batch Production Produce just the necessary, in the right time at the right
more products/services than necessary • Production on Forecast quality
Overprocessing Unnecessary processes or operations • Not value added activity Optimize value added activities to remove all unnecessary
• Lack of investigation of customer needs steps
• Activity by tradition
Defects Production of defective Parts/Services that can’t be • Lack of standardization Produce “right first time”
sold to the customer. Defects can be scraps or • Lack of training Stop the process when the defects occur, solve the problem
reworks, which add tremendous cost to organization • Lack of error proofing system in order to remove it definitively
• Poor quality of supplies
• Obsolete process

• Inadequate tools or jigs,
• Unclear specifications, …
