Process Mapping

By Centre for Competitiveness

Drive improvement with our one-day Process Mapping workshop. Our Process Mapping Training course has been designed as a one-day programme so that your business may use Process Mapping as THE TOOL to drive improvement. The techniques explained in this practical "hands-on" workshop will yield real, timely, and motivating results. A process map is a visual tool used to illustrate your core processes. It is essentially a breakdown of a process to determine how it flows and, ultimately, how effective it is. Those who use PROCESS MAPPING look closely at elements such as the structure of a system and the flow of communication within the system. It is therefore a communication tool, a planning tool, and a tool to drive unnecessary waste and cost out of your organisation. It is also a practical tool to help you identify and address core problems in your organisation. PROCESS MAPPING is an essential and critical stage in the search for performance improvement. Yet the approach is not widely recognized or understood. PROCESS MAPPING will help managers and staff alike discover what the process is currently like, what are the Value Added, the Non-value Added, and the Value Enabling activities, and how to identify opportunities for improvement as you map out how the process should look like Whether delivering a service or producing a product, successful organisations are in continual pursuit of better, faster and cheaper way of delivering satisfaction to their customers. PROCESS MAPPING will provide organizations with an agreed and accurate understanding of their current processes, and will therefore provide new sources of rich stimulation for ideas to solve problems, find improvements, and map what the process should look like. It is therefore a foundation upon which many organizations then develop and implement many other Lean tools. PROCESS MAPPING is also a key tool used in the design and implementation of a robust Quality Operating System. The International Organization for Standardization or ISO 9001 encourages a process approach to quality management as it helps in the understanding of how each process relates to other processes within the organization and how those interactions impact Quality Management. This workshop can also be delivered in-house as a stand-alone training workshop or integrated into wider improvement activities. We are happy to discuss Process Mapping in the context of your own business needs, so please contact us via email at compete@cforc.org or phone +44 (0)28 9073 7950 or our Dublin office +353 8 7224 2575 for more information.

Implementing '5S' in Manufacturing

By Centre for Competitiveness

Having difficulty implementing '5S'? This workshop focuses on how to make '5S' meaningful to people, and how to link it with company goals. “5S, that’s just all about keeping things organized and tidy, isn’t it? Or maybe you have heard someone say: “Why make a big deal out of cleaning up?” But 5S is not really about the aesthetics of the work place, or even about the efficiency gains you will achieve (typically, 10% to 30% can be easily achieved). The real benefit of 5S is the introduction of standardised operational practices to ensure efficient, ergonomic, repeatable, safe ways of working. This brings many benefits: higher quality, lower costs, reliable deliveries, increased morale, and improved safety … to name but a few. It will also result in a highly visual workplace which contributes to achieving one of the most important results of 5S : making problems immediately obvious. 5S works by helping the team eliminate the seven wastes of lean manufacturing: Waste in Transport, Inventory, Motion, Waiting, Over-processing, Overproduction, and Defects.It is therefore one of the most powerful Lean Tools, and provides a stable foundation upon which to build all of your other improvement programs, Lean Tools and Practices. It is also one of the simplest to implement, and can be applied within your manufacturing environment, office processes or even within a service industry. 5S is a team approach and requires the participation of everyone within the area in which it is applied to be effective. Structure of the Course This one day course will provide you with a comprehensive overview of the 5S Process and how you can implement it to your organization. It's approach is based on the experienced gained by implementing '5S' in many organizations. It focuses on highlighting what makes '5S' programmes fail, how to engage your personnel in defining and deploying your '5S' strategy, and how to sustain it over time. This workshop looks at '5S' as an integral part of your day to day operational management system, rather than an activity to be managed as a stand alone project. Who Would Benefit from this 8D Approach? Owner-managers, managers at all levels in the organisation, especially team leaders, supervisors and middle managers. Delivery The workshop is delivered through virtual tutor-led live classes. Cost £200 + VAT Booking terms and conditions If you are unable to attend, please let us know 2 weeks in advance of start date. Refunds will be considered on an individual basis. Failure to attend will still require full payment. Ticket fee provides online access for one person only connected from one device. In-House Option This workshop can also be delivered in-house as a stand-alone training workshop or integrated into wider improvement activities. In-house training also provides the opportunity to tailor training to the specific needs of your organization and use an actual problem to demonstrate the methodology. Contact us for bespoke pricing at compete@cforc.org We will be happy to discuss Problem Solving in the context of your own business needs.
