Transactional Lean: Preparing for the Digitalization Era: A Systematic Approach to Industrialize Office Processes

This book goes beyond searching for Muda by Gemba walk; the aim is to industrialize the office environment in view of the new digitalization challenge by applying the same principles of Lean industry. Whereas the basic process theory remains valid, the Lean tools have to be adapted and transposed to the office characteristics where not machines but employees are at the center of the transactions. Here, a new, already successfully applied, integrated, industry-derived, and systematic approach is presented. It will not only boost office effectiveness and productivity as well as shortening lead-time of office routines far beyond simple Muda elimination, but it will also prepare the processes in view of the upcoming digitalization era.

This book is the continuation of the textbook&nbsp;Lean Compendium - Introduction to Modern Manufacturing Theory. It extends the theory of mathematical modeling to batch & queue-based cyber-physical production systems. To facilitate learning, the book continues to develop a Cartesian-derived understanding of the system's behavior by applying manufacturing-specific theorems, corollaries and lemmas. A law-based description enables to model production mathematically and understand upfront their dynamics in terms of WIP generation, lead-times, exit-rates, and on-time delivery performance. While simulation alone only allows to explore the optimum solution, the development of a theory allows to gain knowledge. This improves the learning of the "physics" of manufacturing systems and contributes to a solid production's understanding and a clear and cognitive problem determination that leads to a thorough mental capture for mastering a systematic design of such highly complex systems.

This book offers a comprehensive exploration of a new manufacturing mode designed to revolutionize the reliability of interdependent networks. It provides the necessary theoretical foundation and practical implementation guidance for Fractal Manufacturing with Variable Quantum Flow, an innovative manufacturing approach tailored to reduce process lead time (PLT) and to meet the demands of value chains reliant on 100% on-time delivery (OTD). The book introduces readers to introductory concepts, delves into the evolution from the BCT Deviation Function to Fractal Manufacturing, characterizes the Fractal Manufacturing system, and explores additional aspects beyond its modeling. With a focus on non-deterministic business environments and make-to-order productions, this book presents a pushed JIT system that is poised to transform manufacturing practices
