IDENTIFY IMPROVEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
TENKEN
• One off the best ways of Identifying
opportunities for improvement is by
direct observation. (TENKEN)
• The Tenken Check Sheet Identifies the
important points to be observed and
noted.
• IMPORTANT, when doing a Tenken,
explain to the operator the reason and
get the operators support.
• From the observation noted and from
the comments of the operator, areas for
improvement can be identified.
• These should be highlighted on the
Tenken Check Sheet.
SPC/ CHARTING
• SPC (Statistical Process Control/
Charting ( Graphs, diagrams
etc.) are an ideal means for
identifying areas requiring
improvement.
• Where the process is out of
control, or beyond the
tolerances set, actions should
be taken to first stabilise the
process.
• Once stabilised, improvement
opportunities can be identified
to reduce the tolerances and
improve the standard.
PRIORITISE IMPROVEMENT OPPORTUNITIES
CONSIDERATIONS WHEN
SELECTING AN
OPPORTUNITY
• Can it be improved within
the means available to the
team?
• If the problem is too big
then it needs to be referred
to Management for them
to address.
• Do all Team members agree
It’s an improvement
opportunity they want to
work on?
• Agreement is vital if the
Team is to work effectively
on the improvement.
• Will it require other people
and resources etc. to
action?
• These people need to be
involved, for example;
1. Facilities
2. Maintenance
3. Industrial engineering
4. Etc.

DESCRIBE CURRENT SITUATION
DATA COLLECTION
• having the selected the issue on which
work you now need to measure the current
situation. You need to learn the facts
• These all aid in the analyzing of the concern. The situation can
then be defined in terms of; WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, and its
EFFECTS.
•The EFFECT as you have defined it, is written in the box on the right. All possible
causes are written to the left. Often the major headings MATERIAL, METHODS,
MACHINERY and MANPOWER are added to guide our thoughts.

STANDARDISATION
• On verifying that the improvement

materials, distances etc., then the
actions need to be standardized.
• STANDARDISE; the actions are
made part of the everyday process,
is the change becomes the new
standard
• This new standard should be
communicated and shared with
other sections/areas as part of the
Working Together Process.
