3. Japanese are good at manufacturing.
They will probably tell how the Japanese captured a large share of the
global-market by creating world- class standards in design, materials, and
management.
The concept of time-based management is nothing new for managers outside
of Japan and has been in practice for many years
However, the Kanban process involves more than just in time deliveries and
inventory controls.
This will focus on interlinked components and features which constitute the
japanese Kanban process of time-based management
5. 1. History of Just-in-Time
Incorrectly rumored to have been invented
by Henry Ford.
Actually invented byTaiichi Ohno ofToyota.
Ohno’s system designed to handle varying
volumes/various parts.
Nothing more than good, common sense
manufacturing.
6. 2. From Supermarket to Shop Floor
Ohno is believed to have gotten his JIT idea from U.S.
supermarkets.
Customers pull items from shelf.
Empty space on shelf is signal for stocker to replace item.
If items are not bought, no replacement required.
When item become low, stocker reorders from supplier.
Customers take only what they need because they know items will
be restocked.
Ohno applied the same concept to manufacturing.
7. 3. What to Expect
JIT is more than an inventory system.
It is an operational philosophy which includes:
A set-up time improvement system.
A maintenance improvement system.
A quality improvement system.
A productivity improvement system.
A properly implemented JIT system should:
Produce products customers want.
Produce products only at the rate customers want them.
Produce with perfect quality.
Produce instantly with zero unnecessary lead time.
Produce with no waste of labor, material or equipment.
8. Respect for the contribution that Employees can make.
Good relationship with suppliers.
Reduction of set up time.
Flexible work force.
Reduce lead time and preventive maintainence.
A demand pull system in which material only flows when needed.
9. Involves keeping stock level to a minimum.
Stock arrives just in time to be used in production.
Works best where there is a close relationship between
manufactures and suppliers.
Goods not produced unless firm has an order from a customer.
Aims to get highest volume of output at the lowest unit cost.
10. Materials purchased just in time to make component parts
No demand – no production
Finished goods assembled just in time to be sold to customer.

12. Increase in cash flow.
Reduced in deterioration.
Reduction in stockholding costs.
Less space required for stock.
Closer relationship with suppliers.
13. Dangers of lost sales.
May lose bulk-buying discounts.
High dependence on supplier.

15. Just-in-time (JIT): Pull vs. Push System
In a push system, such as an Material
Requirements Planning (MRP) system, we look at
the schedule to determine what to produce next
Driven by pre-determined production
schedule
In a pull system, such as JIT, we look only at
the next stage of production and determine what
is needed there, and then we produce only that
Driven by demand
JIT uses Kanban system to implement a pull
system
16. What is Kanban?
“card” or “visible record”
Kanban is a simple part- movement system that
depends on card and boxes to take parts from
one work station to another on a production
line
How to use it?
A Kanban is attached a container, when the
container is filled with items produced
When the container is free up, the Kanban is
removed from the container and put back to the
receiving post
17. Kanbans are used to control flow of production
A free kanban at the receiving post signals need
for production
Production stop, if all kanbans are used
Kanbans are recycled when a container is
unloaded at the next step of production
More kanban more containers used at the
same time larger WIP
18. The Kanban process utilizes two different kinds of cards- transport and production
kanban.
Both of the cards do not have to be used simultaneously in a production process.
The Transport Kanban contains information from where the parts originated and its
destination. When only this card is used, it is know as a simple Kanban process. In
this
system component are ordered and produced according to a daily schedule
The Production Kanban, on the other hand, outlines to what extent and when work
has to
be accomplished by a specific station on the production line. Together with the
transport
Kanban, it is known as an integrated kanban process.
Toyota of Japan has taken the example discussed above one step further. Here,
certain
component are directly supplied from suppliers to the production line.
The transport Kanban is simultaneously used internally between the warehouse and
the
production lines. This is an excellent example of the integrated Kanban system.

26. 1. Each container must have a card
2. Assembly always withdraws from fabrication (pull system)
3. Containers cannot be moved without a kanban
4. Containers should contain the same number of parts
5. Only good parts are passed along
6. Production should not exceed authorization
27. A simple and understandable process.
Provides quick and precise information.
Avoids overproduction.
Is minimizing waste.
Provide quick response to change.
Low costs associated with the transfer of information.
Control can be maintained
28. A breakdown in the Kanban system can results in the
entire line shutting down
Keeping the Kanban resized as demand changes can
be slow and difficult to manage
29. KANBAN Vs OPENAGILE
Compared to Kanban, Open Agile takes a more philosophical approach to
project
management as can be seen from the three rules it is built on11:
1. Truthfulness
2. Consultive Decision-Making
3. The Learning Circle
Hence, Open Agile compliments the more process oriented Kanban with respect to
employee morale.
KANBAN VS. SCRUM AND XP
In Scrum, the use of a Scrum-Board is prescribed, whereas Kanban enforces
Kanban-Boards. Both are basically card walls, either physical or virtual. In
comparison, Kanban adds WIP limits which we will discuss in the next rule.
XP does not make any prescriptions on using visualisation techniques or
even attributes any big importance to workflow visualisation as it would take
too much time from programming tasks.
30. Another difference between Kanban and the other two is that Kanban uses
these work in progress limits to change the basic project management
paradigm from pushing work downstream, i.e. from development to testing, to
pulling it from upstream.
KANBAN VS. THE REST
We could go on comparing Kanban to many other agile development methods,
as for example Dynamic Systems Development Method (DSDM)
In any case, Kanban makes no restrictions or assumptions other than to apply
the principles mentioned in this document.
31. 1. MONEYSUPERMARKETING
Moneysupermarkting is one of the United Kingdom’s leading comparison
website.
This case study shows how they were able to improve their delivery process
through the introduction of kanban.
In some way other software companies were facing too many simultaneous
tasks
Through adopting kanban, they were able spot the bottlenecks and blockers
within there system and to address the issue’
The visualization using kanban board gave an end-to-end flow and allowed the
resolution of bottlenecks as soon as they occurred.
David Anderson presents a case study from 2004 on how Dragos Dumitriu managed
to improve the processes of a Microsoft development team based in India.
This team had the reputation of having the worst customer service within Microsoft
and Dumitriu was determined to change that.
By applying the Kanban method, i.e. workflow visualization and limitation as well as
mapping the value stream and implementing the pull-system, Dumitriu was able to
spot and solve most of the problems faced by the Indian team.
They were able to detect and solve bottlenecks
2.FROM WORST TO BEST IN FIVE QUATERS
32. In the end, even though they did not implement all the possibilities of Kanban, the
results of these few small changes were impressive:
•They managed to eliminate an originally overflowing backlog entirely in just over
a year.
•They reduced the lead time from an original 155 days to 14 days.
•The due-date performance on the 25-day delivery time target was 98 %.
•The throughput of requests had risen more than 300% and lead times dropped by
more than 90%.
3. KANBAN AND SCRUM - MAKINGTHE MOST OF BOTH
The second part of the previously introduced book “Kanban and Scrum – making the
most of both” provides an exhaustive case study about a Swedish game development
company’s transition from Scrum to Kanban.
The case study introduces how they set up teams, addressed stakeholder needs and how
they established the Kanban boards and WIP rules.The results presented were that they
managed to resolve bottlenecks, achieve a constant work flow and most importantly
that by adopting Kanban they were better able to meet deadlines
33. 4.CONVERTING A SCRUM TEAM TO KANBAN (CRISP CASE STUDY)
This industrial success story is about a Swedish consulting company named
Crisp and a French software company named Nuxeo
Before this conversion, Nuexo’s Scrum team had major problems in meeting
deadlines. As a result, the main client was not satisfied and a project failure
was certain. As the development team was using Scrum, their burn-down-chart
confirmed the issues and provided evidence that Scrum was not the way to go
in this case.
After transitioning to Kanban, improvement results were visible after only two
weeks.
Progress occurred also in another form, meaning that a previously unknown
bottleneck was detected. For the first time, employees were able to see that the
testing department couldn’t handle the work load
