Model: sources of variation

sources of variation resources (eg. experience of staff, variation in machines, break down, …) flow units (eg. variation in customer’s direct or indirect needs, human error) external factors (variation in customer demand) (src: Book_ This is LEAN - Niklas Modig & Par Ahlstrom)

Model: superfluous work

Model: superfluous work work devoted to taking care of secondary needs superfluous work is a very sophisticated form of waste, since we often fail to realize that it is waste. We think we are adding value, but we are not. causes of secondary needs Model_ 3 sources of inefficiency example: managing receipts (src: Book_ This is LEAN - Niklas Modig & Par Ahlstrom)

Model: value transfer - resource vs flow efficiency

value transfer when one side (resources) adds value and the other side (the flow unit) receives value high resource efficiency: high % of value adding time high flow efficiency: high % of value receiving time (src: Book_ This is LEAN - Niklas Modig & Par Ahlstrom)

Quote: throughput time in most organisations

most organisations will find it challenging to define process (and therefore throughput time) as starting when a need arises and ending when the need is fulfilled. (src: Book_ This is LEAN - Niklas Modig & Par Ahlstrom)
