2.3. VSM Implementation and Kaizen activity
SMC and the kaizen group studied the Current State map onto the D45T assembly line. A set of kaizen activities initiated
and implemented in effort to optimize the productivity of the assembly line. The assembly process is monitored and during
the monitoring phase, continuous evaluation on any discrepancies or imperfections on product are being addressed
immediately. Necessary counter measures are made to ensure the effectiveness of the new Future state VSM and line
productivity stability is achieved.
2.4. Performance analysis.
This analysis was conducted by comparing performance of the assembly line before and after the implementation of the
kaizen in terms of output per man hour and backlog quantity on daily basis.
