Definitions
Conveyance or Milk Run Route:
• The Conveyance is the designated path or standard
work that a water spider (material handler) takes to
replenish the shelves.
Pitch:
• Refers to the time relating to the cycle the “water spider” has to
replenish the stock.
• Pitch is a lean concept and is calculated by multiplying cycle time
by pack quantity (the number of products per container transferred to
finished goods from the work cell).

Toyota Kanban Timeframe
• Took 12 years to flow down kanban within Toyota
• It then took:
– 8 years to have 60% of first tier suppliers on kanban
– 20 years to get 98% of first tier suppliers on kanban
• Only approximately 50% of Toyota suppliers are
using kanban systems internally today

Implementation keys
•
•
Keep it simple
Develop strategy in phases toward P.O.U.
– Utilize stockroom and warehouse on floor
• Then Eliminate stockroom
• Then Eliminate warehouse
•
•
Have supplier continue to play larger role
Make it very visual. Should not have to count:
–
–
–
–
–
•
•
Label shelves and boxes
Use water levels
Taped /sealed boxes
Color codes, Bar Codes
Egg carton approach, mistake proof system
Continue to reduce quantity and increase
replenishment frequency. Kanbans are inventory
(evil) and need to be constantly minimized or
eliminated
As you move from Kanbans to Job Order (MTO)
replenishment - upstream processes must adapt.
(sets to job order decreases lot sizes i.e. sheet
metal)
