Value add vs non-value add

Value-adding processes (~5%) Waste (~80%)


Processes that directly add value to the Processes that don’t add value to the
product product

Objective:
Business non-value add work (~15%)
To maximize the proportion of value
Processes that don’t add value but must be done in
added activity by eliminating waste
the short term to accomplish value-added work in the
and incidental activity
current system

Use the time only for what adds value in the eyes of the customer

The eight types of waste – WORM PIIT

1. Waiting
People or parts that wait for a work cycle to be
W P 5. Processing
Processing beyond the standard required by the
completed customer

2. Overproduction O I 6. Inventory
Material which is not having value added to it
Producing too much, too fast, or too soon

7. Intellect - Skills Untapped


3. Rework - Defects Any failure to fully utilize the time and talents of
Repetition or correction of a process R I people

4. Motion 8. Transportation
Unnecessary movement of people or parts Unnecessary movement of parts or people
within a process M T between processes

Lean aims to reduce these sources of waste

Outputs Customers (SIPOC) – Scatter Plot – 5 Whys – Failure Mode Effects – Control Plans
– Voice of the Customer – Process Map/Value Stream – Hypothesis testing Analysis (FMEA) – Control charts (e.g.,
(VOC) Map Review – Design Of Experiments – Pull/One Piece Flow Statistical Process Control)
– Critical to Quality (CTQ) – Spaghetti diagrams (DOE) – Kanban – Visual Management
Tree – Regression analysis
– Overall Equipment – Mistake proofing
– Defined Metrics and Defects Effectiveness (OEE) – Non Normal Data Analysis (e.g., Poka Yoke)
