The final and last step is to fully implement the solution. In this step we first determine if the tested solution will become the new standard. This decision will be made by the production manager and based on the data collected by the technician. If the production manager signs off on the implementation, we then list the tasks out that are required for implementation
In our scenario the production manager decides to implement the solution due to the data collected. Now we list the tasks that will be needed to implement to set this change as a new standard.
If you are solving an isolated issue, congratulations! You are finished. But as we discussed we are striving for continuous improvement. We can now repeat the cycle from Step One to find additional opportunities for improvement.
Lather, rinse, repeat.
