Zero-Defect Operations by Mistake-Proofing the Process
This workshop will examine the nature and types of human errors involving human-machine interfaces and provide the approaches to eliminate or avoid them through system improvement. The facilitator will employ actual cases from personal experience and everyday examples to add to the effectiveness of the learning session. The power of this workshop is that, participants have testified how ideas and solutions came up even while the seminar was still going one.
Poka-yoke is Japanese for mistake proofing. It was first proposed in 1961 by Shigeo Shingo and developed by him as an integral part of the Toyota Production System. It is indispensable to achieving zero defects and enabling Just-in-Time production operations and Six Sigma initiatives.
Objectives: At the end of this seminar, the participants will be able to:
- Understand the basic principles and concepts behind poka-yoke
- Apply these principles and concepts to the development of a poka-yoke solution to an actual operating problem.
