Time compression: 7 ways to do
1. simplification – making operations simpler
2. integration – improving information and material
flows
3. standardisation – using standard procedures and
materials
4. concurrent operations – moving away from serial
operations and towards parallel working
5. variance control – ensuring high quality and avoiding
waste
6. automation – to improve effectiveness and efficiency
7. resource planning – to remove bottlenecks and
ensure a smooth flow of materials..
