Gemba Kaizen, Group Technology and Hoshin Kanri (HK) - 8

Gemba Kaizen:

Gemba – means Workplace where the real action takes place. Gembutsu means real problem piece. Gemba Kaizen means continuous improvement done at workplace in real time (i.e. Genjtsu)

Kaizen philosophy warrants going to gemba in real time whenever there is a problem. Take a look at the corresponding Gembutsus to collect data. Make on-the-sport improvements rather than sitting in ivory tower and make a plan for improvement. Normally plan remains plan without any action on it. Gemba Kaizen stresses action with plan.

Group Technology:

Group Technology is to do with forming processing cells on the basis of similarity of form, shape and operations. It facilitates High variety Low production batches.

Hoshin Kanri (HK):

Hoshin means objectives or direction. Kanri means control or management. In essence, Hoshin Kanri means policy management or management of objectives. This is in stark contrast with management by objectives approach in the Western corporate environment.

The committee first met in June 1983 and has established 6 subcommittees. These subcommittees are developing standards on auditing, labeling, life cycle analysis and performance evaluation.

A draft of the International Specification for Environmental Management System ISO 14001 was released for comment in October 1994. Later this was developed to be an International Specification, an accompanying Guidance Document (ISO 14000), for Environmental Management System.

Before developing ISO 14000 standards, the first of the national standards British Standard BS7750 (a specification for an environmental management system aimed at ensuring and demonstrating compliance with a company’s own slated environmental policies and objectives) was the most widely used standard for Environmental Management System.
