- An essential tool for tracking your progress towards flow in a capital-intensive, and equipment-heavy environment.
Developing flow in your value stream and supply chain is very much about increasing the frequency with which you produce a part, ultimately producing a single or one piece in the interval with which the market requires your product: the takt time. A key concept in measuring your progress towards perfect flow, is the EPEI, an abbreviation for "Every Part, Every Interval". Particularly in capital-intensive environments where lot sizes are commonplace, EPEI is a very useful indicator.
When you are interested to read more about what "perfect flow" is, and how to evaluate your progress towards "perfect flow", I recommend reading our short blog posts series about "perfect flow". And for a detailed discussion about EPEI, check out the blog post titled: "Using EPEI in Pull Flow".
At THE JIT COMPANY, we have been working on EPEI improvements for years. And an element that was always part of our efforts was a tool to track the number and time spent on changeovers by machine. And we have now made a small, but powerful application out of it, incorporating all our practical experience using this tool for years. It is an Excel-based application that will allow you to create a changeover (C/O) and EPEI dashboard tracking all the changeovers for your items or product families on a piece of equipment, machine or even a complete cell or line, the changeover time and variation therein, and the resulting EPEI per item (class) and for the machine. And it only requires a few data points and running the analysis with a single click.
