Abstract:
This paper describes the use of a methodology for value stream mapping and
analysis of Manufacturing Engineering New Product Introduction processes. The
applicability and usefulness of the technique to process improvement in this
domain is explored in a case study where the production system for a new
component part is planned and proven. This analysis enables an improvement
strategy for the Manufacturing Engineering process to be successfully outlined.
