This working group will focus on 'SMED – Continuous Improvement Tool Review'

Single Minute Exchange of Dies (SMED)

A quick changeover methodology developed by Shigeo Shingo of Toyota over 50 years ago that is still applicable today.

This is a tool that should be in every leaders toolbox if they are responsible for productivity and customer satisfaction improvements.

In this working group we will break down the elements, discuss the best approaches to apply the steps and also what challenges we may face in applying this approach with our teams.

We can share successes and challenges we have faced.

Also, important when having any tool at our fingertips is to know when and where to use and when and where to not use. This will take us into a discussion around our value stream and TOC.
