Planning and Control for HVLV 6: CONWIP-FIFO-TAKT
This is the last part of a series of six parts explaining about Planning and Control in High-Variety/Low-Volume (HVLV) Companies.
This video explain the three principles of The CONWIP/FIFO/TAKT planning and control system. This system was developed at the company Eaton Holec in the Netherlands. It is easy to implement and does not ask a lot of data.
First, there is the CONWIP principle. The number of jobs in the system is constant. Little’s law helps us to understand that in this case, if demand in constant, also the average throughput time is constant.
Another principle is FIFO (first in, first out). The carts leave the system in the same sequence as they entered the system.
The principle is ‘TAKT’: the workers know how much time they have for their routing. This depends on the demand of the customer, or the next cell. The TAKT-principle is important for realizing sufficient output.
