Industrial Engineering - Some Important Concepts - A Presentation

 1.

Industrial Engineering - Simple Definition


IE is System Efficiency Engineering


Enterprise - System- Process - Operation - Element


IISE Definition

-----------

2.

Industrial Engineering

Productivity (and other results areas) Engineering Related to Design and Redesign of Products, Systems, Facilities, and Processes.

-------------------

3.

Industrial Engineering

Significant value to be added through cost reduction based  on Productivity Improvement (Time reduction - machine time - man time)

Cost reduction can lead to lower prices, revenue growth and profit increase.

There can be direct increase in profit due to cost reduction.

IE sustains and grows business.

What is the value your are adding as a department?

12. Toyota Style Industrial Engineering - IE in Toyota Motors and Japan

Ohno - Mentions only Industrial Engineering in his books.

TPS is output of application of IE.

TPS description only outlines what is special in TPS. TPS used full IE principles and practices.

Managementt drives IE in Toyota. IE connected to Management.


--------------


13. Lean Manufacturing - Lean Thinking - Concept

Lean Mfg.  - Mfg. system with less inventory (compared to bulk manufacturing in batches).

Further extended - Lean Mfg. -With less resources (No muda - No excess resources)

Lean Thinking - Value - Value stream - Flow - Pull - Perfection.

                       Product - Process  - Facilities - Quantity Planning - Improvement


---------------


14. Productivity Planning - Productivity Budgeting

Planning for Productivity Improvement by Technique/Technology (Say based on IoT)

Planning for Productivity Improvement by Period (Next year planning)

--------------

15. Hoshin Kanri - Deployment of Productivity Planning


Now the world admires Japanese practice


---------------


16. Knowledge Management for IE

IE is a knowledge intensive task.

For each process, Industrial engineers have to collect lot of information on external developments apart from internal data.

Information on new technologies, new products, machines, devices - new offerings from subcontractors, consultants


-------------


17. Work Allocation in IE Departments.


Identification of processes in the organization.

Allocation of processes in the organization.

Identification of products  in the organization.

Allocation of products  in the organization.

Identification of facilities  in the organization.

Allocation of facilities  in the organization.

Identification of systems   in the organization.

Allocation of systems   in the organization.


-------------


18. Applied Industrial Engineering - Industrial Engineering Applications .


I strongly feel that industrial engineering applications have to progress parallel to progress in each branch in basic engineering. Every invention that is commercialised requires applied industrial engineering of the product and process on a continuous basis throughout its life cycle. These IE applications gives rise to improved engineering elements some of which can be even patented. 

I am trying to develop course materials that describe and give examples of this IE practice.
