Standard Work Instruction Sheet

The Standard Work Instruction Sheet takes information from the Standard Work Combination Sheet and Standard Work Sheet to create work instructions for operators. It includes the process name, customer demand, work description steps and cycle times copied from previous sheets. Quality checks and key points are also included to ensure work is done safely and efficiently. A sketch from the Standard Work Sheet is also included. The Standard Work Instruction Sheet is meant to train associates and should be updated if better work methods are found.

Standard Work Instruction Sheet

Overview
A few modules ago we began this journey by learning about the Process Capacity Table which
helped us learn more about the process by identifying the constraints and maximum capacity
of the process.

This then lead us to the Standard Work Combination Sheet which allowed us to focus in on
the work of single operator. With this tool we were able to graphically map out the different
types of time, such as cycle times, walking times, and how all these compared to takt time.

The next tool we learned about was the Standard Work Sheet which helped us map out the
so-called dance steps of the entire process including how multiple operators work together
within the system.

Well, when we take the information learned from the Standard Work Combination Sheet and
add it to the information learned from the Standard Work Sheet we arrive at the Standard
Work Instruction Sheet.

Creating a SWI Sheet
The top portion is very similar to the other sheets we’ve learned about already. We’ll enter
in things like the process name, part number, and all of the other applicable information such
as the customer demand and net operating time.

Once this is done we’ll copy the work description steps and manual cycle times from the
Standard Work Combination Sheet.

The section next to the work description area focuses in on various quality control checks
including any type of inspection or measurements that need to be done. In our example we 3
steps require visual inspection and step 5 requires a gauge to be used.

Next to this section we find an area for key points that are meant to provide some tips and
advice enabling the work to be done safely and efficiently.

The last part of the Standard Work Instruction Sheet is the same sketch we defined in the
Standard Work Sheet.

Taken together the Standard Work Instruction can and should be used to train associates on
how to perform their job. Of course, like all the other Standard Work tools this instruction
sheet is meant to be improved. So, when an associate finds a better way to do their work this
instruction sheet, as well as all the other Standard Work forms should be updated.
