Our Client needs support with waste analysis of the production operations around the facility. This activity will monitor production in all work areas, record all the activities, record any impacting items to the process, and quantify the time it takes to complete jobs throughout the plant. This effort will be across all departments and programs in our plant.
Deliverables
• Observe operations to create accurate time standards for job phases
• Investigate and implement ways to improve product throughput, recovery, and quality.
• Analyze production processes to identify and quantify waste (materials, time, defects, motion)
• Identify and document operational bottlenecks and inefficiencies
• Conduct root cause analysis to address recurring inefficiencies
• Document and communicate findings to project stakeholders
• Coordinate with HR to ensure observations comply with UAW rules
• Actively investigate and implement ways to reduce costs in the processes observed.
• Review and prepare controls standards.
• Improve controls throughout the site to bring added value to the operations.
• Maintain and develop process flowsheets for site operations
• Develop/generate reports summarizing plant performance.
• Analyze workflows, identify constrictions, and develop solutions to improve production quality, and maximizes efficiency while ensuring compliance with safety and environmental regulations.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement process improvements.
• Assist the Production Coordinators, Supervisors, Sr. Engineers, Production Engineers and Superintendents as necessary.
