Shop floor planning

scheduling, launch and follow-up



Workshop planning is subject to conflicting constraints: meeting deadlines, responsiveness, maximizing productivity, minimizing work-in-process. This training course gives you the keys to managing your workshop on a daily basis, while respecting your own constraints and those of your customers.

Workshop planning is subject to conflicting constraints: meeting deadlines, responsiveness, maximizing productivity, minimizing work-in-process. This training course gives you the keys to managing your workshop on a daily basis, while respecting your own constraints and those of your customers.


Teaching objectives
At the end of the training, the participant will be able to:
Master the global context of planning, in particular MRP
Choose scheduling rules and know their limits
Tools for arbitrating trade-offs between work-in-progress, productivity and responsiveness
Optimized progress monitoring
Continuous improvement of the planning process
Launching pull-flow production

Intended audience
Planners and schedulers, team leaders, anyone responsible for managing production flows and drawing up schedules.

Prerequisites
No special knowledge required.

Practical details
Hands-on work
Practical work, role-playing, quizzes. Final mapping practice session: staking-ordering-launching-final follow-up.

Course schedule

1
Planning and scheduling to guarantee deadlines and responsiveness

  • Some industry background.
  • Take stock of your planning processes.
  • Identify logistics functions in industrial companies.
  • Distinguish between the 5 types of activity and their impact on planning strategies.
  • Mark out, schedule and launch.
  • Understand the influence of staking on inventories and work-in-progress.
Hands-on work
Identify the main hazards in scheduling. Identify what creates WIP. Kanban demonstration: first push-flow simulation.

2
Les bases de la planification : MRP et Approvisionnements

  • Project planning: using GANTT.
  • Master MRP mechanisms: PIC/PDP, CBN.
  • Control supplies.
  • Distinguish between push, pull, tense and synchronous flows.
Hands-on work
Perform PIC and CBN calculations. Visualize influencing parameters. Kanban TD: 2nd pull-flow simulation.

3
Mastering scheduling: tools and settings

  • Apply scheduling techniques, including [[finite capacity]].
  • Arbitrate trade-offs to optimize total costs.
  • Use the QEC (economic quantity to order) model and the theory of bottleneck constraints.
Exercise
Choose the right priority rules for your flows. Evaluate the financial impact of outstandings.

4
Monitoring and improving for better control

  • Responding to workshop issues.
  • Follow: better coordination.
  • Monitor progress: potential drifts.
  • Take action: optimize your work plan.
  • Lead workshop meetings, including progress monitoring and rescheduling.
  • Promote workshop autonomy.
  • Optimize Quality, Costs and Delivery.
Hands-on work
Optimize your work plan. Leading an AIC (Animation à Intervalle Court) workshop progress meeting. Mapping: milestones-ordering-launching-final follow-up. Final quiz.
