Sources of Hidden Capital
And Costs
1. Inventory (RM, WIP, FG )
2. Consignment Stock
3. Old Inventory
4. Excess labour
5. Waste in all forms
6. Product made greater than EPR
7. Debtors > Creditors
8. Interest rates overdraft > borrowings
9. Repairs and rework and errors
10. Defective product and process.
11. Not optimizing cycle time and lead time etc…
Lessons from The Best
Companies in the World
1. John Blakemore recently visited some of the
best companies in the world including,
Honda, Toyota, Canon, Mazda, Kawai,
Panasonic as part of an investigation to add
to our understanding of Creative Lean Flow.
2. These lessons can be applied to all
Enterprises for both information flow and
product flow.
3. To the list of TQM, and Lean we now need to
add Kyosei, and the German Meister system.

Culture Change
Improving the way we do it.
Change is successful when people:

Understand the reasons for the change

Understand

how the change will work

what their role in it will be

the anticipated consequences.

Influence the planning, implementation and control of the change

Trust the initiator of change is acting in their best interests.

See that top management genuinely supports the change and acts
in the same way.

See the benefits are worth the cost paid.

See it as being gradual with team members becoming leaders.

Use good communication skills

Encourage participation in change

Use pilot studies to demonstrate benefits.

The Chief Executive sets the Culture of the organisation
25 Lean, Green, Rules
1. People (1,2,3)
2. Integration (4 to 9)
3. Planning(10 to 16)
4. Operations(17 to 25)
Cochlear and Toyota
1. Cochlear is Australia’s most innovative company.(Ibis
2005)
2. Blakemore Consulting consults to Dr Chris Roberts
and has redesigned all major manufacturing systems
using Lean
3. USA hospitals were losing money fitting Cochlear
Implants until they studied the Toyota system in
Japan…now profitable.(ref Chris Roberts 2005)
4. GM was the world’s biggest carmaker but Toyota
could have bought all of GM with last years profit
alone (Ref The Australian 2005)…since then GM, Ford
and Chrysler are virtually bankrupt
