CYCLE TIME MANAGEMENT (CTM)


(PUBLIC / IN-HOUSE TRAINING PROGRAMME)

SBL
Scheme

Introduction

If your manufacturing team can focus on only one kaizen project at a time, then let it be the reduction of
total build/test cycle time. There just isn’t any other more important success factor to pursue than Cycle
Time Management

Long cycle times are a symptom of poor manufacturing performance and high non-value added costs.
Manufacturers need to focus on the continuous reduction of all cycle times. Achieving success requires a
specific management style that focuses on proactive problem solving, rather than "fire-fighting". In this
process, management takes on a coaching roll, bringing all their people into the process and supporting
them in their efforts to improve productivity, customer satisfaction and profitability.

Product build/test cycle time is an important element of the total production flow process and provides an
excellent focus for a process improvement program. Product build/test cycle time is calculated as the
hourly work content through the longest path of the lean manufacturing process. In the sequential
production process, the product build /test cycle time can be calculated by starting at the end of the
process and following the longest, cumulative, single path back through the process, regardless of whether
it traces the main path or trails off to a sub-assembly path. Many manufacturers have increased their on-
time delivery performance and product profit margins by implementing a program of build/test cycle time
reduction. The main focus of such a program is the elimination of all non-value-add activities along the
path of the product build/test cycle.

In a Harvard Business Review article by Joseph L. Bower and Thomas M. Hout, the authors makes a good
case for "Fast-cycle Capability for Competitive Power". They observe that people in fast-cycle companies
think of themselves as part of an integrated system, a linked chain of operations and decision-making points
that continuously delivers value to the company’s customers. In such organizations, individuals understand
how their own activities relate to the rest of the company. They know how work is suppose to flow, how time
is supposed to be used. Many have used our manufacturing simulation game to change old paradigms.

Fast-cycle companies differ from traditional organizations in how they structure work, how they measure
performance, and how they view organizational learning. They use time as a critical performance measure.
They insist that everyone learn about customers, competitors, and the company’s own operations, not just top
management.
