Single Piece Flow Training and Consulting
Grupas Gelişim's Single Piece Flow program makes the lean manufacturing method — based on the principle of transferring each workpiece one by one to the next workstation in the production process — applicable in your business. In the classic batch-and-push flow, moving batches of 10 pieces through 3 consecutive processes takes 30+ minutes, whereas with the "make one, move one" logic the same job can be completed in 12 minutes. The program builds the knowledge and implementation discipline needed to create this difference on the shop floor; it also openly addresses the constraints of the method (balancing workstations, employee skills, demand fluctuations, equipment and technology needs) to offer a realistic implementation roadmap.
Benefits for Your Company
- Less inventory: Accumulating and holding workpieces becomes unnecessary, reducing inventory volumes and inventory costs.
- Shorter lead times: Thanks to uninterrupted flow, the production process speeds up and flow time is noticeably shortened.
- Early detection of defects: Errors become visible at every processing stage; quality improves and scrap and recall costs decrease.
- Workforce productivity: Operators work with greater focus, moving from one workpiece to the next without waiting, which raises productivity.
- More flexible production: Rapid adaptation to demand changes is achieved and the production process can be shaped easily.
- Balanced line design: Provides the perspective needed for workstations to operate at a harmonized pace with a balanced workload.
