23 Adient – Improving the experience of a world in motion Adient begins the journey to Industry 4.0
24 Adient: Industry 4.0 actions
> Adient has more than 30 projects underway around the world
> Technologies in use:
‒ Collaborative robots ‒ RFID ‒ Advanced-vision systems ‒ Electronic performance systems ‒ Electronic layered-process audits ‒ Factory simulations
> Three data analytic projects to discover how “big data” can help optimize our operations > Other projects: Automated guided vehicles (AGVs) deliver parts from the warehouse to individual workstations; Industry 4.0 model JIT plant
25 Sunderland selected as tough environment to prove I4.0 value
• JIT (less machine intensity)
• 2 shifts
• Low volume / complexity
• High performing plant (OEE, quality, turnover, etc.)
26 Copyright ©2017 by The Boston Group, Consulting Inc. Allrights reserved. Four objectives for I4.0 model plant effort
Deliver 5%+ conversion cost savings and capitalize on non-financial benefits of I4.0 (quality, flexibility, safety/ergo, etc.)
Learn about I4.0 use cases including which areas have the most impact and what key implementation challenges exist
Build a model plant to make the solutions real and highlight the investment that Adient is making in technology
Jumpstart an I4.0 operational transformation for Adient across the
broader manufacturing network Copyright Copyright ©2017 by The Boston Group, Consulting Inc. Allrights reserved. 27 Launch performance
> We use four KPIs to measure launch success for each program / product:
• Safety – Zero recordable incidents for launching product / process • Quality – Achieve customer scorecard PPM (defects / million) requirements • Delivery – Zero disruptions to the customer’s manufacturing plant • Financial – Achieve financial targets agreed upon at sourcing
> 78% of Adient’s launches were successful in FY17; this has to be improved in FY18
> Our customers expect flawless launch execution … we expect the same from our suppliers
28 Adient – Improving the experience of a world in motion Achieving a successful launch
Roadblocks: Necessary steps:
> Lack of understanding of customer timing > Staff on time / Start on time > Insufficient resources early in the program > Align early with Adient’s program timing > Late sub-supplier sourcing > Effectively manage sub-tier suppliers > Late tooling / equipment kickoff > Use your manufacturing process and operations > PFMEA / Control Plan inadequate teams > Lack of operator training > On-time delivery > Process capability not achieved > Evaluate capacity > Overlooking sub-supplier readiness > Proactively communicate any risks > Late PPAP approval > Plan to launch flawlessly > No plan to demonstrate required capacity > Escalate issues when necessary > Missing “safe launch” plan
29 What can you do to support us in FY18?
> Dedicate necessary resources at the time a program is awarded > Meet deadlines – tooling and equipment kick-off are key > Actively manage your sub-tier suppliers > Deliver quality parts or services on time > Communicate with us often > Escalate issues early
Success will only happen when we work well together
