A total quality management excellence-focused strategic planning technique used in Lean manufacturing to promote collaboration among employees and drive continuous improvement. The technique involves walking around the workplace and observing employees at work to spot areas for improvement and areas where improvements can be made.
One key component of a successful Gemma walk is to have a checklist that outlines what to look for during your evaluations. This ensures that you don't miss important details and will be able to provide constructive feedback that is relevant.
Here are some key items to include on a Lean evaluation checklist:
1 Work in Process (WIP): Analyze how much inventory is on hand and whether there is a sufficient supply chain to meet current demand. Consider utilizing tools such as Just-In-Time production or TPS to eliminate overproduction and minimize waste.
2 Underutilized Equipment: Look for equipment that is idle. Identify the root reason of this shortcoming, and implement a plan to streamline operations or phase out underperforming assets.
3 5S Adoption: Evaluate the level of 5S achievement, which involves organizing and maintaining the work area. 5S stood for Categorize, Organize, Clean, Establish, and Maintain. Employees who have mastered 5S can reduce waste and work more effortlessly.
4 Energy Use: Verify whether all appliances and lighting are being used responsibly to minimize resource consumption and minimize the impact of energy consumption on the environment.
5 Material Utilization: Inspect to see if materials and inputs are being used correctly, and whether inefficient materials are available in the area. Consider adoption product Raw Material Kanban to minimize waste and plan suitable stockpiling.
6 Water and Wastewater Management: Recognize potential sources of waste that can be minimized by implementing an efficient water management system, also known as 'water-based waste.' For example, use leak-proof containers and other spill prevention measures can help minimize product loss and waste.
7 Employee Development: Engage with employees about their current condition and problems they encounter daily. Assess their training level, recognize areas where learning and development are required, and implement a plan to address knowledge gaps.
8 Employee Feedback Mechanisms: Assess how employees give feedback on areas of improvement and develop useful communication systems so that they can provide input confidently. It can also be helpful to evaluate employee suggestions to recognize the most effective ones.
9 Regulatory Adherence: Verify whether employees comply with local rules and company policies to ensure compliance.
By following a set of standard evaluation tools, leaders can use the Gemma walk strategy to evaluate specific business operations, supply chains, or teams. By evaluating the day-to-day processes, operations managers are given the opportunity to recommend small or minor adjustments that bring immediate improvements to workplaces.
