Omsk Airline studies lean manufacturing tools

Last week, as part of the implementation of the national project "Labor Productivity", a series of training sessions for the participants of the working group was held on the territory of Omsk airline Veltal-Avia.

Veltal-Avia Airlines provides business aviation and medical evacuation services. The airline's own fleet consists of six aircraft. Together with experts from the Regional Competence Center (RCC), the company plans to accelerate the supply of aircraft spare parts.

Thus, the company's working group received trainings on the following topics: "Problem solving methodology", "Standardized work" and "Equipment efficiency Analysis".

During the training, Veltal Avia employees gained knowledge about the basic concepts of standardized work, learned how to calculate clock time, identify elements of operations, conduct timekeeping and identify employee losses.

"With the participants of the trainings, we discussed in detail the problems faced by enterprises and methods for finding the root causes of their occurrence, as well as tools for developing and evaluating proposed solutions based on a systematic approach. The company's employees learned how to analyze the efficiency of the equipment (OEE) in terms of a comprehensive indicator, what it is needed for, what data this indicator is formed from, and what losses affect the OEE," shared RCC expert, certified trainer Mahabat Sugurbayeva.

The participants of the working group noted that lean manufacturing trainings play an important role in building knowledge and involving employees in the process of transforming processes in the Company.
