There are various lean programs, one of them being world class manufacturing (WCM), and that is what we’ll be focusing on here today.
Fiat, an Italian automobile manufacturer, and the best European and Japanese experts came together with the goal of enhancing production standards to a recognized world standard. As a result, that is how world class manufacturing came to be.
WCM is a systematic approach based on the minimization of the seven types of wastes with the help of everyone in an organization and the proactive application of various techniques and standards.
Moreover, WCM applies its concepts to all aspects of the manufacturing plant (or factory) organization, in terms of continuous improvement. That is to say, it aims to continuously improve areas such as safety, quality, maintenance, and logistics.
WCM uses various techniques and standards in one combination or another to continuously improve products, processes, and services. For example, some of the techniques and standards include:
However, to start working on world class manufacturing, some methods you can implement include:Â
The world class manufacturing way involves seven steps. They are:Â
World class manufacturing foresees 10 pillars that represent the “Temple of WCM”. Moreover, its purpose is to visually teach users that to achieve the standard of excellence, a parallel development of all 10 pillars is essential. Additionally, each pillar represents and focuses on a specific area of the production process and uses relevant tools to achieve global operational excellence. Essentially, the 10 WCM pillars focuses on “Zero” — what this means is:
