Event:	Introduction to Pull / Kanban Systems
Description:	In this course, participants will receive an introduction to Pull / Kanban Systems. This class will become familiar with a six-step methodology to implement Pull / Kanban Material Systems. In addition, attendees will see the concepts in practice in repetitive and non-repetitive, as well as seasonal demand applications. Attendees will see how to set-up point-of-use material storage, interface pull systems with existing planning systems, and set lot sizes based on capacity, not economic order quantity theory.
Prerequisites:	Principles of Lean Manufacturing with Live Simulation or equivalent.
Expected Outcomes:	Participants will observe the benefits of implementing Pull / Kanban systems, which include: simplified processes, fewer stock-outs, less inventory, lower space requirements, higher productivity and greater flexibility in a specific area of the business.
Suggested Participants:	Production and Production Support personnel from Materials Management and Purchasing, Scheduling.
Number of Participants:	Up to 20 People per Event.
Duration of Event:	1 Day.
