Executive IE Summary – Craft Joinery Main Hall

Generated 1 July 2026 • Confidence 91% • IE Model v1.4

Objective: Increase throughput, reduce waste travel, improve OEE.

Method: TIMWOODS waste analysis, Value Stream Mapping, Spaghetti diagram, Line Balancing, Constraint Theory, 5 Whys, Fishbone.

  • Motion waste 184m/shift – relocate tool cribs point-of-use (5S).
  • Transport waste – U-cell re-layout eliminates 38m backtrack.
  • Waiting – Spray Booth constraint, cycle 480s > takt 412s – SMED 34 min reduction.
  • OEE 71.2% → 83% projected.

Projected impact: +23.4% throughput • €147,000 annual cost saving • Payback 11 days • Capacity +14% without CAPEX.

Implementation roadmap (Kaizen): Week 1 – 5S blitz, Week 2 – SMED, Week 3 – U-cell move (weekend), Week 4 – Standard Work & audit.
