Kanban System Designer

Overview

The Kanban System Designer skill provides comprehensive capabilities for designing and implementing pull-based production control systems. It supports kanban sizing, WIP limit determination, supermarket design, and electronic kanban configuration for efficient material flow.

Capabilities

  • Kanban sizing calculation
  • WIP limit determination
  • Supermarket design
  • Signal mechanism configuration
  • Pull system simulation
  • Heijunka box design
  • Electronic kanban (e-kanban) configuration

Used By Processes

  • LEAN-004: Kanban System Design
  • TOC-002: Drum-Buffer-Rope Scheduling
  • CAP-002: Production Scheduling Optimization

Tools and Libraries

  • Kanban software APIs
  • Inventory management systems
  • Simulation tools
  • Visual board platforms

Usage

yaml
skill: kanban-system-designer
inputs:
  product_family: "Widget Assembly"
  demand_data:
    average_daily: 500
    peak_daily: 750
    variability: "medium"
  lead_time_data:
    replenishment_time: "4 hours"
    safety_factor: 1.5
  container_size: 50
outputs:
  - kanban_quantity_calculation
  - supermarket_layout
  - signal_card_design
  - wip_limits
  - implementation_plan

Workflow

  1. Analyze Demand - Review historical demand patterns and variability
  2. Calculate Kanban - Determine number of kanbans needed
  3. Design Signals - Create visual or electronic signal mechanisms
  4. Set WIP Limits - Establish limits for each process step
  5. Configure Supermarkets - Design inventory storage points
  6. Implement and Tune - Deploy system and adjust parameters

Kanban Calculation Formula

code
Number of Kanbans = (Daily Demand x Lead Time x Safety Factor) / Container Size

Where:
- Daily Demand = Average units consumed per day
- Lead Time = Time to replenish (in days)
- Safety Factor = Buffer for variability (typically 1.0-2.0)
- Container Size = Units per kanban container

Integration Points

  • ERP/MRP systems
  • Manufacturing Execution Systems
  • Inventory management platforms
  • Visual management displays
