7 Summary: Novo Nordisk – Clayton’s Improvement Philosophy On-demand Performance Flexibility Stability • Stabilize process output • Root cause analysis • Rigorous process measures • Stabilize workforce • Focus on true customer needs • Build knowledge into processes • Develop workforce for multiple roles • Design processes for responsiveness • Focus on core processes and value chain • Organize to enhance teamwork and speed • Sustain high performance at lowest possible cost AND • Quickly respond to changing needs • Remain competitive at any volume
8 Our Improvement Philosophy 2003 marked the beginning of revolutionary change in Clayton’s improvement mindset Stability 2003 Themes • Focus on true customer needs • Rigorous process measures • Develop workforce competencies • Root cause analysis • Stabilize workforce Adoption of Six Sigma practices helped us to understand we were not stable. Since 2003, stability has provided the foundation of improvement projects that would not have worked without this foundation.
9 Gaining Stability Themes • Focus on true customer needs • Rigorous process measures • Develop workforce competencies • Root cause analysis • Stabilize workforce Redesign of SOPs Visual SOPs that clearly standardize tasks Operations Model Disciplined application of the SIPOC model to clearly define “requirements” of the user in all Operations processes Redesign of BPRs Simplified (closer to mistake proof) batch records that contain only “requirements”
10 The Need for Change • Inefficient and Unfocused SOPs/BPRs • • Little agreement on what was critical and why Business vs. Compliance requirements Unstandardized setups and practices on shop-floor No infrastructure for process improvements • Increasing Production Volumes • Processes were not scalable. • Batch release overwhelmed by documentation nonconformities, and by rework of batch documentation
11 How to Change? • Go Back to Basics • What does our process look like? • What are our critical parameters and how/where do we control them? • Instructions vs. Records: separate them • Obvious workplace • Create an Infrastructure for Improvement • Make SOPs Useful • Establish a process that will capture and enforce best practices.
12 Example Process Alignment—Process Control System Cont’d Q 8 Process Map • The set of sequential and parallel activities which assure the Customer requirements & process purpose is met if performed properly • Shows individual as well as cross-functional accountability Show you do your job Q 2 Q 3 Q 1 Show the purpose of your job contributes to the core processes and satisfying the customer Show what actions you take when there are out-of-control events or Change in Customer Requirement
13 Example Process Alignment—Process Control System Cont’d Checking Q 1 Show you know how well you are doing Show the purpose of your job contributes to the core processes and satisfying the customer Q 11
Example of a old SOPs consisted of mountains of text. Additions over the years resulted in out of sequence or buried instructions that were not conducive to operators or trainees.
Example Activity A-7 Execution Procedure Excerpt 15 PDCA “Check & Act” Perform “Plan & Do” Show you know how well you are doing Q 2 Q 1
Benefits • Compliance: Process understanding in increased with focus on the critical few, instead of the non-critical many • Delivery: Batch review/release process is streamlined, faster, and easier • Continuous Improvement: Anchored by putting them into the SOPs that are used every time; this has magnifying continuous improvement efforts. • Ease of Training: Non-english speaking operators in Brazil were able to set up a complex labeling machine perfectly using the visual SOPs even though they could not read a word of it. • Scaleable Model: Has been applied to QA, administrative, manufacturing, and logistics processes.
17 Gaining Stability Themes • Focus on true customer needs • Rigorous process measures • Develop workforce competencies • Root cause analysis • Stabilize workforce Work Unit Reviews Disciplined process performance measurements for each Work Unit implementing emphasis on proven performance Control Charting of processes Use of statistically sound methods of measuring process output
18 Gaining Stability Themes • Focus on true customer needs • Rigorous process measures • Develop workforce competencies • Root cause analysis • Stabilize workforce Extensive Six Sigma training Training for every employee on basics of structured problem solving and root cause analysis Systems Training Courses Training courses produced by operators/technicians to be used for systems training

49 Some examples that have resulted from Guidelines applying these guidelines for designing our processes and workplace that support success INSPIRATION INNOVATION IMPLEMENTATION More support teams moving. Atto 24/7 schedule NNPII we all make products which not like QAonly onimprove shiftsthe quality of people’s lives but also save lives Finance change from We do this by contributing to our core “budgeting” to “unit processes cost consulting” We know our customers and work to serve their needs The core processes set the pace of our work Everyone works toward the success of the core processes You must be able to clearly articulate how you contribute by adding value to one or records more of these core processes We know the quality of our processes in realtime contribution We organize work by common characteristics, not necessarily by functional content Batch approved/released you cannot do this, please change your during. If turn arounds Work that doesn’t touch core processes moved to shared service centers NNPII Process Definition: Self-supporting activities that achieve our business objectives and add value in producing a Sampling, IQC product that meets the customer’s needs. EM responsibilities moved to where the work gets done
