A performance-driven manufacturing evaluation method used in Lean manufacturing to encourage teamwork among employees and drive continuous improvement. The technique involves walking around the workplace and observing employees at work to identify inefficiencies and areas where improvements can be made.
One key component of a successful Gemma walk is to have a checklist that outlines what to look for during your assessments. This ensures that you don't overlook critical factors and will be able to provide useful suggestions that is actionable.
Here are some key items to include on a Gemba walk checklist:
1 Work in Process (WIP): Analyze how much inventory is on hand and whether there is a sufficient supply chain to meet current demand. Consider utilizing tools such as Just-In-Time production or TPS to reduce waste and minimize waste.
2 Idle Equipment: Look for machinery that is idle. Identify the root cause of this inefficiency, and implement a plan to streamline operations or eliminate underperforming assets.
3 5S Implementation: Evaluate the level of 5S achievement, which involves maintaining and maintaining the work area. 5S stood for Categorize, Organize, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Employees who have mastered 5S can optimize processes and work more effortlessly.
4 Energy Efficiency: Check whether all equipment and lighting are being used responsibly to prevent waste and minimize the impact of energy consumption on the environment.
5 Material Utilization: Evaluate to see if materials and inputs are being used efficiently, and whether inefficient materials are available in the area. Consider adoption product Kanban to avoid item expiry and optimize inventory levels.
6 Water and Wastewater Infrastructure: Recognize potential sources of waste that can be minimized by implementing an efficient water management system, also known as 'water-based waste.' For example, use of leak-proof containers and other hazard mitigation measures can help minimize product loss and waste.
7 Employee Development: Talk to employees about their current condition and problems they encounter daily. Evaluate their training level, identify areas where personal growth are required, and execute a plan to fill skills gaps.
8 Employee Feedback Mechanisms: Assess how employees give feedback on areas of improvement and develop effective communication systems so that they can provide input confidently. It can also be helpful to evaluate employee suggestions to recognize the most effective ones.
9 Regulatory Compliance: Verify whether employees comply with local regulations and company policies to ensure compliance.
By following a set of standard evaluation tools, leaders can use the Lean walk strategy to evaluate specific business operations, supply chains, or teams. By evaluating the day-to-day processes, operations managers are given the opportunity to suggest small or minor adjustments that bring immediate improvements to workplaces.
