Elements and Performance Criteria

  1. Design the JIT system/system improvements
  2. Implement the JIT system/improvements
  3. Monitor the JIT system

Range Statement

This field allows for different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Competitive systems and practices include one or more of:

lean operations

agile operations

preventative and predictive maintenance approaches

statistical process control systems, including six sigma and three sigma

JIT, kanban and other pull-related operations control systems

supply, value, and demand chain monitoring and analysis

5S

continuous improvement (kaizen)

breakthrough improvement (kaizen blitz)

cause/effect diagrams

overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)

takt time

process mapping

problem solving

run charts

standard procedures

current reality tree.

Procedures (written, verbal, visual, computer based, etc.) include one or any combination of:

work instructions

standard operating procedures (SOPs)

safe work method statements

formulas/recipes

batch sheets

temporary instructions

any similar instructions provided for the smooth running of the plant.

Key measures include one or more of:

inventory levels

lead time

in full, on time and in specification (IFOTIS) delivery

productivity/production rate

other measures of pull through the value chain

quality.

Knowledge Evidence

Must provide evidence that demonstrates sufficient knowledge to interact with relevant personnel and be able to develop a JIT system, including knowledge of:

needs of internal and external value chain members

principles of JIT

reasons for delays/storages/inventories in the value stream and methods of reducing/eliminating them

methods of identifying and filling skill gaps

key business objectives associated with implementing JIT

principles of the operational processes relevant to the JIT implementation

production data generated by the process and its application to JIT.
