Error Proofing and Problem Solving Simulation

Kit includes simulations for both Error Proofing and Problem Solving. The kit is designed for up to three teams (six associates per team) who have been trained in Problem Solving Tools, and should be facilitated by an experienced Team & Problem Solving Trainer. The Simulation Kit gives the team a chance to use their Problem Solving Tools and Error Proofing techniques in a simulated, yet "business-like" environment, and confirms their understanding of these techniques through the use of team "report-out" activities.

Problem Solving:
This simulation kit provides an opportunity to actually use the following tools:

- Problem Definition
- Fishbone Diagram and Multi-voting
- 5 Whys
- Brainstorming
- Developing an Action Plan

This exercise takes approximately 3 hours to complete.

Error Proofing:
After teams have been trained in Problem Solving, this Error Proofing Simulation is to be used as part of an Error/Mistake Proofing class. This exercise teaches the team how to apply the following Error Proofing techniques:

- Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFMA)
- Detection in Station
- Successive Checking

This exercise takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete.

This videotape shows application of many different mistake proofing devices in operation at Ford Motor Company, United Electric, and TRW. Mistake proofing or poka-yoke, is implemented as an important part of these companies quality process. Some of the devices in this video are quite complex, like the one used by TRW to make sure the air bag is packed right, and others are very simple and can be made for very low cost. This video explains how you can design mistake proofing devices and put them to work in your operation today. Mistake proofing is a system that eliminates defects without the use of statistical process control (SPC), or complex solutions. By its nature, this zero defect tool will also aid in the process of continuous improvement and worker involvement.
