Shop Floor Management, abbreviated SFM, is a concept from Lean Management. It is a management method that became established in the western hemisphere in the early nineties and has gained acceptance in many industries. The objective is to increase productivity through continuous improvement of processes (CIP). The basis for CIP is: Transparency, structure and forward-looking leadership.
SFM is considered to be particularly efficient in streamlining processes in production.
Shop Floor Management includes the following 6 leadership tasks:
Key figures & visualization
Communication (daily Shop Floor Meetings)
Prioritization
Go & See (leading on-site)
Structured problem solving
Process confirmation
Digital Shop Floor Management is characterized by the digital support of the Lean principles and subjects of classic Shop Floor Management as well as the 6 leadership tasks.
Thus, the advantages of SFM are extended by the benefits of digitalization and Industry 4.0. The objective is to further optimize processes through more transparency based on the use of real-time data.
Digital Shop Floor Management serves to minimize error rates and optimize processes.
It also helps to achieve noticeably more transparency by automatically collecting data from existing systems and visualizing it in a bundled form on a digital board.
A fundamental element of Shop Floor Management is recurring communication or the so-called Shop Floor meeting. Shop Floor meeting is a tool for managing employees and is used to discuss the current state of affairs based on the previous day. The meeting takes place every day and is supported by a Shop Floor Board. Topics include productivity/performance, quality management or the control of countermeasures.
The Shop Floor Board is the basis for daily Shop Floor Meetings and the central instrument for leadership in Shop Floor Management. Among other things, it visualizes relevant key performance indicators (KPIs), deviations and countermeasures. The latter are documented on the board for follow-up purposes.
