- Write reports detailing observations, evaluations, and deviations.
- Summarize and prioritize actions, maintaining and managing action lists.
- Evaluate and update Process & Station Readiness plans in alignment with requirements.
- Provide Pareto analysis of deviations, red/white spaces, and defects.
- Translate Non-Value-Added (NVA) activities into measurable financial impact at serial production rate.
Outputs & Deliverables
- Deliver the different reports including:
- VA & NVA time analysis for non-linked operations, cost impacts, etc,
- Operation feasibility within STV or target cycle time
- Workload distribution per station/work package
- Paretos for findings/improvements
- Quantified Right-First-Time (RFT) performance
- Deviations to line balancing (station/area level)
- Identification of VA/NVA with potential gains
- Improvement proposals with impact assessment
