Text: Plant has been experiencing high premium transportation over the past 2 years. 2003 premium was over $220,000 and 2004
premium is over $250,000 thru July. In addition to high premium, Plant 11 has experienced internal and external delivery issues to
several customers. Delivery Performance has created several concerns from the DCS Business Line because of the impact to their final
customers.
The goal of this project is to reduce Premium by 40% and reduce IPM by 45%

Analyze Take - Aways
- Maintenance Response Time is a significant contributor to
Time to Fill Back Order (Y)

- Tool & Die repair time is a significant contributor to Time to
Fill Back Order (Y)

- Both Maintenance Response Time and Tool & Die Repair
Time impact Uptime but Uptime alone is not a significant
factor

- Other potential causes (Xs) did not show significant impact
to Time to Fill Back Order

- This statistical data indicates that in order to reduce the Time
to fill a Back Order, which potentially leads to premium, we
must reduce the Maintenance Response Time and the Tool
& Die Repair Time

Next Steps
- Continue in the Improve Phase

- Develop solutions to improve Maintenance Response Time
and Tool & Die Repair Time

- Collect Data from the Recommended improvement plan

- Evaluate if corrective actions reduce or eliminate the impact
of Maintenance Response Time and Tool & Die Repair Time
on the Time to Fill a back Order / Premium

Timeline for Full Solution Implementation
- Department 11xx was the first module installed.

- Implementation of the remaining modules that will utilize
these solutions are as follows:

- Department 11xx will be completely installed by 5/15/xx
- Department 11xx will be completely installed by 6/1/xx

- Department 11xx will be completely installed by 8/1/xx

- Department 11xx (Low Volume) will be completely installed by 10/xx

- Department 11xx will be replaced by 11xx (8/1/xx)

- Department 11xx will be replaced by 11xx (6/1/xx)

Financial Impact
- January April of 200x compared to January April 200x indicates a
reduction in premium of 16%, 80%, 84.5% and 31.4% respectively.
- This equates to a 61.9 % reduction in premium over the same four month period.

- Over the last two months departments without the improvements have
accounted for significantly more premium than department 110x.
- Dept 110x Non-Improved Depts
- March 18.0 % 52.0 % (1119)
- April 27.8 % 58.9 % (1116)

- Our implemented solutions improved our process by 30 %
- From 1.4 Sigma to a 2.0 Sigma

- Our implemented solutions reduced our median time to fill a back order
by 41.6 %
- From a median of 2.4 to a median of 1.4

- Based on these improvements we conclude that the plant 11 premium
will be reduced by approximately 34.0 %

- Based on 200x premium of $308,940, the financial impact will be a
reduction in premium of $105,040.00 per year.

Control Plan
- Plant xx team should monitor Maintenance Response Time
and tool & Die Repair time.
- This should be monitored on a monthly basis.

- If Maintenance Response Time or Tool & Die Repair Time is
greater than 4 hours, plant should investigate root cause

- Need to determine responsible person (s) to monitor these
issues

- System generated reports for Maintenance Response Time
and Tool & Die Repair Time will support in this effort

Intangibles
- Breaking down old barriers and avoiding finger-pointing by
using real data collected by a true cross-functional team
- Excellent cross functional team that was represented by manufacturing, PC&L,
tool engineer, Quality, IT, Terminal Store Supervisor and Manufacturing & PC&L
Master black belts

- Dispelled many theories about causes for premium and
allowed us to focus on real root cause

- Provided additional data for the manufacturing team to focus
on the real causes for premium and other machine down
time / Uptime issues

- Processes across all functions are interrelated but not all
controlled by the plant manager
- Good cross functional support is required for the plant to be successful

- Excellent job by IT support to provide accurate real time
data.
- Every black belt project should have an IT person on the team

- Excellent data collection and support by all team members.
