Target: Remove a company 7 kinds of waste

Sun Lin of manager of branch of Kodak China KOS tells daily economy journalist, kodak runs a system run train of thought to come from " Feng Tiansheng produces a system " " seed profit is produced " thought, although use least resources manpower, raw material, device) the product that produces a client need, or the service that provides client satisfaction; From another angle character, put an end to all sorts of waste through managing a resort namely.

Train of thought: To dimensions economy " rebel "

A kind of any new ideas and practice union can be encountered more or less obstruction, KOS system is not exceptional also.

When Kodak just began to carry out KOS, once faced enormous challenge, that is employee is not agreed with to this system. Because KOS system wants to be produced from small lot of mass production return, the dimensions economy that this and modern industry stress appears " run in the opposite direction " .

Sun Lin says, film industry is big batch production commonly, the factory of Kodak produces film previously, no matter how much the quantity of client need is, every one second boiler is about serial production a week is a month even. And after KOS system is carried out, every open boiler to produce a day only normally.

From before in light of the idea, much boil furnace affirms much waste, but go after in KOS system place " seed profit is produced " in the concept, mass production needs to put store space, need raises the hand that runs stock, and time grows film to be able to deteriorate a bit, the devoted far outclass of equipment, field, hand uses the investment of seed profit pattern. Although its unit cost in manufacturing domain is inferior, but right whole supply chain for, the cost that the company pays the cost with managing place of economy of prep above dimensions, created waste thereby.
