The Application of Cost-Based Value Stream Mapping to a Container Loading Analysis A Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Commerce with Honours at Lincoln University by Tiffany McIntyre Lincoln University 2014 Abstract of a Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Commerce with Honours. Abstract The Application of Cost-Based Value Stream Mapping to a Container Loading Analysis by Tiffany McIntyre Lean production emerged in the 1990’s as an academic term, with the publication of the book ‘The Machine that Changed the World’. The philosophy was born out of the Toyota Production System, with the objective to eliminate waste within firms. Originally applied to the manufacturing industry, the philosophy has been applied to other industries such as services and healthcare with varying levels of success. However, to date, very little research has been conducted in the agricultural sector. The aim of the study is to use the Lean tool Value Stream Mapping to determine its ability to improve performance within a logistics setting, through conducting a cost analysis on container utilisation for an existing New Zealand dairy company.

  • 1) 1973 2) Mid 1990S 3) 2001 (1)
    BACKGROUND New Zealand faced the challenge of rapidly increasing milk flows three times in recent decades: 1) 1973 2) Mid 1990s 3) 2001 (1) The UK became a full member of the EEC (now the EU) in 1973. The 12 years of negotiation leading up to this gave New Zealand an opportunity to diversify its dairy production away from butter and cheese. Wholemilk powder production ramped up from zero in 1972 to over 400,000 tonnes by 1999. Total production of milkpowders nearly reached 700,000 tonnes. (1) Historical Trends – NZ Milkpowder Production 1938-2000 TOTAL WMP SMP NUT BMP (1) 30.0 Capacities of the largest 27.0 tph tph New Zealand dairy spray 25.0 23.0 tph driers commissioned tph in 5-year periods (tonnes/hour) 12.0 tph 8.0 5.0 tph 3.2 3.4 tph tph tph 1971 1976 1981 1986 1991 1996 2001 2006 2011 to to to to to to to to to 1975 1980 1985 1990 1995 2000 2005 2010 2015 (1) The large capital requirements encouraged amalgamations: - to help raise the capital - to exploit economies of scale in drying plants All dairy companies were co-operatives operating a single-desk selling system for the 95% of their production that was exported. The continual building of ever larger plants built up domestic engineering and construction capabilities. (2) As the number of co-operatives dwindled and their milk flows increased, the price of farm land increased. The mid 1990s saw mass migration of dairy farmers and herds to cheaper South Island traditionally sheep farming areas.

  • Asia Focus Newsletter January 2019
    Asia Focus Update January 2019 祝大家春节快乐 NEW ZEALAND - GENERAL BUSINESS UPDATE Both the New Zealand Dollar and the New Zealand Stock Exchange have been slowly recovering after taking large hits in October. Despite global unease, New Zealand’s economic outlook remains positive with business confidence relatively stable, albeit more subdued than 12 months ago. The Government’s financial statements for 2018 report rising forecasted surpluses and falling core Crown net debt. Against this background, New Zealand’s economy is forecasted to grow faster than that of its major trading partners. Since the coalition government came into power just over a year ago, it has enacted several of its election campaign policies, demonstrating a strong focus on environmental protection and regional development. The Prime Minister’s focus on environmental protection and climate change was again highlighted at Davos of the World Economic Forum last week. We expect this to be a key theme this year. It also established a Tax Working Group, chaired by former Finance Minister Sir Michael Cullen, which is due to report back in February this year and is expected to recommend some form of capital gains tax. Agribusiness is expected to perform well in the coming months, with dairy production off to a good start and favourable weather conditions foreshadowing a bountiful season for produce. To boost potential growth, New CONTACTS Zealand will need to tackle pressing concerns in the forestry and dairy sectors. One of the greatest issues facing the Robert McLean government is subdued business confidence over the last year. However, New Zealand Institute of Economic DDI: +64 9 977 5077 Research’s Quarterly Survey of Business Opinion showed Mobile: +64 21 987 050 business confidence recovered slightly in the fourth quarter [email protected] of 2018, signalling a more positive business confidence outlook for 2019.
