Classification of "eight wastes" checklist of pharmaceutical logistics center

[technical article of chinapharma.com] in our daily life, "waste" is everywhere In the pharmaceutical logistics operation site, "waste" also exists This phenomenon is a non value-added link in all business links of an enterprise (especially in the production management link) If we stand in the perspective of customers, it refers to all non value-added activities of an enterprise According to the characteristics of the medical logistics operation site, the waste on the operation site is classified, so that the logistics operation personnel and managers can better find problems, identify waste, propose solutions, eliminate waste, and make the company benefit and employees benefit (picture source of "eight wastes" checklist of medical logistics center: Baidu picture) the waste at the medical logistics operation site mainly includes the following "eight" aspects: first, the waste waiting for waste refers to the waiting for nothing due to unbalanced operation and improper planning, which is also called stagnant waste Its specific performance is as follows: the workload changes a lot every day, when the workload is small, there is nothing to do; information systems, machinery and equipment often fail; upstream work is not completed on time, resulting in downstream work waiting; pipeline fails to achieve balance 2 Space waste from the financial point of view, the more the unit volume inventory of the logistics center, the higher the utilization rate and the higher the rate Due to various reasons, the space is not fully used to store the effective goods (such as packaging materials, not effective goods), resulting in the waste is space waste Its concrete performance includes: the space is not fully utilized; the inventory turnover is slow; third, the waste of action waste refers to the unnecessary repetitive actions of employees due to the production department of the enterprise does not adopt the corresponding standards and norms to restrict the action behaviors of employees in the production process Most of these repetitive actions belong to the scope of production preparation, so they are non value-added The more they are repeated, the greater the action waste Specifically, the definition of action waste includes the following three contents: none of these actions produce value; all of these actions violate the economic principle of action; all of these actions are avoidable by means The so-called action economic principle is a very old knowledge - a technique in Industrial Engineering (ie), which stipulates the principle of action grading For any action, it can be divided into the following six levels: Level 1, finger movement; Level 2, finger and wrist movement; Level 3, the whole fist is in motion; level 4, the whole arm is in motion, doing things or completing homework within this range; level 5, the activity is extended to the waist and upper body, and the activity range is wider; Level 6: the body's center of gravity moves up and down or left and right; 4 The actions of taking and placing, stacking, arranging, moving, and arranging waste goods are mostly actions with no added value The waste caused by these actions is the waste of transportation 5 The narrow definition of inventory waste refers to the opportunity cost of overdue, damaged, stored and occupied due to excessive operation auxiliary materials (various consumables, computers, RF, printers, etc.) It broadly defines the long lead time, obsolete products, damaged products, transportation and storage costs and delays caused by too many raw materials, work in progress or finished products 6 Energy consumption waste the waste of energy consumption of pharmaceutical logistics refers to the waste of unreasonable use of energy and consumables 7 Process waste the waste of pharmaceutical logistics process is caused by unreasonable business operation process VIII Rework waste rework waste refers to the waste of rework caused by the operation not in accordance with the standard process, or the operation quality is not qualified due to the subjective reasons of the operators or the service is not provided according to the needs of customers Rework waste needs to pay a high price, so we should take various measures to eliminate rework waste Good practice case: 1 Before the improvement of the shelf in the plane area: the area was originally a crossbeam type storage location (4-layer storage location), which could store 64 storage locations; after the improvement, it is now changed to a 3-layer drive in storage location, which can store 99 storage location improvement results: the storage location is up to 35, which can generate 34492.5 yuan of economic benefits in the whole year Application methods: Kanban management, visual management, QFD (house of quality), 5S II Before the improvement of the outbound label: operation steps: take the carton → find the label → judge the address → judge where to put it → put the carton sorting efficiency 8s / after the improvement of the carton: operation steps: judge the line number → judge where to put it → place the carton Improvement results of sorting efficiency 5S / container person: About 5h man hour can be saved in the whole day, and the calculation and application methods of 6000 containers per day are as follows: anti stupidity method, action analysis, time analysis and process analysis
