I'd like to invite you on a journey where we learn by playing a lean Lego game.

It is a completely redesigned, enriched, 39-page presentations, with footnotes accompanying every slide, for step-by-step guidance in delivering a successful training session.

The game comes with full instructions, pictures with the operator work instructions, printable data sheet (slide 9 and 37), pre-defined current and future value stream map, opportunities marked on the map, all in a presentation format, ready to be delivered.

There are three rounds, each round is played for 15 min (1 min equates 30 min real time).

The maximum number of robots that can be built is 50, more than enough for the whole game, as each round you start from zero.

The game is for 6-8 people. If you have more players, just buy another Mega Bloks or Lego game and use the same instructions. It can be seen as a competition between teams.



The story of the Space Robotics Corporation

The Space Robotics Corporation is in the robot business. They make agile robots, appreciated all over the world. Last week they negotiated a large contract and now they have to deliver 25 robots each day.

They have a problem though as the maximum number they ever produced in one day was 10.

How are they going to deliver the promise?

Let’s look at their current operations.

Space Robotics uses an MRP system with quarterly sales forecast. Every week schedules are sent to Operation 20 and 40. Daily they make adjustments, if necessary.

The customers send their orders daily and the shipping department ships around 10 boats each day.

The main supplier is Robotic Supplies Company, 30 miles away. Weekly they receive purchase orders for the week ahead and monthly they get a forecast.

The deliveries to Space Robotics come once a week.

Customer Requirements = 25 robots/day (current 10)

The plant operates 5 days a week, 240 days of the year, on a one-shift basis of 8 hours with a 20-minute lunch break and two 5-minute coffee breaks.

Plant Effectiveness = 85%

There are four assembly operations, one final inspection operation and a shipping operation.

Do you want to know how they succeeded?

Let's embark on the wonderful world of learning by playing and solve the mystery together.
