Learning launch 

 Challenge 

 As a member of Sourcing & supply chain in my organisation , I belongs from part development team . 

 I have got the challenge to improve the capability of some of my local suppliers to increase their   output as per desired level to feed our production line without any interruption & without any   quality issues . 

 We have taken this challenge within our sourcing team of particular domain and suppliers team . 

 This project was time bound since either we may have to loose production or to take decision to   induct new supplier nearby which involves cost & time both . 

 Selection 

 Our team has study several tools related to design thinking & tools Learning launch suits as one of   the best & optimum tools to get the desired outcome as it involved past learning experience &   failures to accommodate in next project & get benefits of previous learning to suit the local   environment .   With this tools we can quickly check our ideas and proto type methods to evaluate   the results in better way . 

 Application 

 In our learning launch , we have bifurcated the activities in following structured manner & indicate   the action progressively- 

 •   To collected the production trend of these supplier since last 3 years 

 •   Identified the maximum & minimum output month 

 •   Identified the good & bad things happened during maximum & minimum output month 

 •   Collect the future   projections of these suppliers 

 •   Get the ideas of good things happened earlier & planned to implement those things 

 •   Analysis the bad things & reason of happening the same 

 •   Pokayokas to avoid bad things to happen in design stage itself 

 •   Make small improvement project to make the good practice happen 

 •   Sustenance & monitoring of good projects & reviews & std frequency with the stakeholder 

 •   Identify the bottleneck activity at supplier area 

 •   Time study mapping to identify the bottleneck 

 •   work towards debottlenecking the same by implementing lean manufacturing   implementation at supplier end 

 •   Time study & lean manufacturing implementation at supplier end to identify the bottleneck 

 •   Check the results at fixed intervals 

 •   Standardise the improvement activities by updating necessary documents like Work   instructions , control plan , DFMEA , PFMEA etc . 

 •   Making the sign off with supplier to desired quantity & quality 

 We have conducted 3 - 4 workshops alongwith different supplier & make progress reports on each   criteria . These workshops occurred within a month time . We have modified various process flows &   SOPs at supplier end as per revised guidelines . 

 Insights 

 After 2 weeks we are expecting significant changes in performance of these suppliers . 

 Certain things may not go well as per our plan which will be taken as corrective action to improve   further efficiency . With help of Learning Launch , team will be quite open to demonstrate the   improvement to all the stakeholder with transparency . A sense of ownership will be develop within   team which boost the moral to next level & appreciations from Management . 

 Moving forward , team will review this insights & incorporate into our next projects . 

 Approach 

 Given the case , even though team has study the several design thinking tools , this suits the best   one to utilise the efficiency of team . Another tools used in this project was mind mapping which held   us to create a influencing environment which motivates team as well .
