- By creating a materials list, our group has organized and streamlined the materials necessary for the completion of our project. This method will help to eliminate inventory waste by making sure we only purchase the materials that we need (plus a little extra).
- We also created a transportation plan in cooperation with another group to minimize time/effort/cost of transporting our pieces to the site for assembly. This will help to eliminate transport and waiting time waste by making sure we are being most efficient with our time and energy.
- We created a very detailed Rhino model to aid us in measuring specific lengths of materials and especially unique angles for our joints. This will help us avoid over-production and inventory waste. This is especially important in helping us avoid other kinds of waste as it can often compound and cause backup in production.
- We have created a schedule for the process of material preparation to eliminate waiting time and motion waste, so that we can work efficiently, especially in shop.
- We have carefully made cut sheets and measured lengths and angles of custom pieces to help avoid defect waste caused by mistakes during fabrication.
