Another training session was held at the Process Factory for employees and managers of Metallinvest PC LLC, a participant in the National Labor Productivity Project under the management of the Regional Center for Labor Productivity Competencies (RCC).
Metallinvest is engaged in the reception of ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, recycling and aluminum casting. Aluminum processing has been selected as a pilot production stream within the framework of the national project. During the first six months of the project, it is planned to bring it to a reference state.
In the process of training at the "Process Factory", participants live through three production shifts to assemble a real product. The team has plans to fulfill the customer's order. Between shifts, the working group identifies the reasons for deviations from the plan, works on errors, and forms a plan for the next shift.
During the training, a certified RCC trainer analyzes seven types of losses with examples that participants notice during the shift. The concept of standardized work and its advantages are analyzed. Students also build a "spaghetti diagram" to reflect the sequence of movements of a warehouse employee, his unnecessary actions that lead to chaos and losses, downtime of other employees, and eliminate losses.
"An information stand has been installed at the Process Factory, where all the main indicators present in any production are monitored.: safety, product quality, order fulfillment on time, costs and financial indicators. It also analyzes staff satisfaction with production throughout the game. Metallinvest employees will be able to apply the skills and abilities acquired during the training in production and optimize those work processes that have bottlenecks," said Konstantin Kovalev, head of the RCC.
In the feedback, the participants of the training highly appreciated the work of the "Process Factory" and the trainers, and also expressed interest in continuing to study the topic of lean management.
