LEARNING LAUNCH FOR THE CAFETERIA 

 Challenge 

 I am a third year engineering student in the stream of Industrial Engineering and Management .   We had a self study component in the second year to apply the Industrial engineering concepts   in improving an already existing system ( E.g. The college cafeteria ) . The main challenge here   was that , the students were used to the way it was designed and maintained , and also   convincing the cafeteria owners and the college management was not a child ’s play as they   did n’t want to invest anything on it due to a bigger construction that was going on . 

 So in brief , zero budget and no disturbance to the existing system unless the plan was approved   by the majority of the students . 

 Selection 

 Our project group had gone through several layouts and worked on the best floor plans using   the principles of Industrial Management . Our main aim was to have a continuous work flow in   the cafeteria . We had to make it like a process layout without any delay . We then decided to   create an anonymous survey to get the feedback of the students on our new layouts . Thus , the   design thinking tool ‘ Learning Launch ’ came into picture . 

 Application 

 We collected the college email address of all the students from the data centre and used   Google Forms to circulate the layout plans to all the students with accurate descriptions . The   form also contained our aim of the project and how it ’d be effective for a better and faster   service . The students were requested to answer the question , ‘ Do you think our college   cafeteria requires a makeover ? If yes , please select one of the following three layouts provided   below . ’ ( These designs were approved by the college management ) . 

 Insight 

 To our surprise about 75 % of the students preferred Layout B which made it very easy for us to   narrow down our project , and all the students who responded , were towards changing the   layout . This made it easier to convince the management of both the cafeteria as well as that of   the college , since the entire college was looking forward for a change . 

 Approach 

 Having everyone on our side and after the approval of the respective managements , the   cafeteria got a new makeover , it made the work flow much faster , there were no more hassles ,   looking at our interest in improving the cafeteria , the director of architectural department of   our college told us that their students were willing to help us with the interior designing which   made the cafeteria stand out really well . We were appreciated for our self study project , and   moreover ‘ Learning Launch ’ won the entire game for us .
