LEAN ASSIGNMENT – 4
You are the CI manager and you have been asked by the CEO to improve the lead time for the Tail Gate production line.
(1) Develop a Current State Value Stream Map base on the information below:
a. Customer name: Ford Motor
b. Supplier name: Eaton Yale Ltd (Tail Gate manufacturer)
c. TW steel (raw steel plates) provides raw steel to Eaton Yale
d. Eaton Yale Products: Tail gate for F -150 and F- 250 pickup trucks
i. Part number for F-150 TG – 150
ii. Part number for F-250 TG – 250
e. Ford Motor scheduling department provides monthly forecast to Eaton Yale
f. Ford Motor scheduling department provides daily requirement to Eaton Yale every Monday at
11:00AM for the next 10 days
g. All companies work 20 days per month (weekday only)
h. Eaton Yale Calculate the raw steel requirement and fax to TW steel weekly
i. TW Steel ship raw steel plate via rail twice a week (Monday and Wednesday)
j. The agreement between TW Steel and Eaton Yale is to have 5 days Raw steel inventory
k. Ford Motor assemble
i. F -150 1200 per month
ii. F-250 600 per month
l. Ford Motor operate 3 shifts per day
m. Each shift has two 15 minutes break and 30 minutes lunch

(2) Answer the eight questions of Future State Value Stream Map and develop a Future State Value
Stream Map
(1) What is the Takt time?
(2) Build/process directly to shipping or to a Finished Goods supermarket?
(3) Where can continuous flow be used?
(4) Where are supermarket or FIFO pull systems needed?
(5) At what single point (the pacemaker) in the Value Stream is processing/production triggered?
(6) How is production mix leveled at the pacemaker?
(7) How is production volume leveled at the pacemaker? (i.e. Pitch: what increment of work will be
released and taken away at the pacemaker process?)
(8) What process improvements are necessary for the Future State to become a reality? (e.g. uptime,
changeover, training)
Solution:
1) Takt Time = Time Available / Demand
TT = (21hrs/day) / (90 ) = 14 minutes
2) Build/process directly to shipping or to a Finished Goods supermarket:
