Quality & Test Plan

Air bearings under truck bed Driver positioning
Took dimensions of required
equipment and space for each station in the assembly, test, and paint process in the current state
Created factors of varying
importance
Designed 4 different layouts – 2
straight-line, 2 U-shaped – in the new shop floor
Conducted a 3P event on a U-
shaped layout using cardboard to check theoretical values against actual feedback from operators and line side managers
3P Event Result Factors Affected Status Tested U-shape design Returnability Flexibility Pass-by/Pass-through Added new cylinder assembly flow line Space Utilization Inventory Access Operators and managers evaluated the layout and gave feedback on parts and people flow and equipment requirements Inventory Access Ease of Movement by Operator Movement Time Found hidden problems and constraints i.e. spacing between stations, jib crane requires oil pump station next to column Space Utilization Maintenance Access Tested – good outlook Needs further testing, but predict a good outlook Needs attention, was not addressed
Top Level Assembly Level Flow
Iterative in nature – lots of ‘back to the drawing board’ moments Conceptualization and the funnel of idea development
To better establish the needs of Dresser Rand So the team can better prioritize efforts
Code of Ethics Components Assessment Recommendations
Expectations for Team Behavior: Honesty, Respect, Accountability, Professional and Thorough Communication Good communication during meetings, but email communication was not responded to in a timely manner. Also, accountability could have been better during MSD II. Better individual time management, check email twice daily and respond Expectations for Integrity of Assigned Tasks: Tasks should be completed on-time and with the quality expected as seen in the MyCourses documentation and as discussed during assignment of the tasks Completion of tasks was not always done
team meeting time catching up on work. Better individual time management, more thorough and clear description
Not Meeting Expectations: Any complaints or inability of meeting expectations should be shared with the team in order to provide more resources and/or time, or reassign task to another member Many tasks completed last minute and the individuals did not inform the team
they should have. Mid-week check-ins, project manager emphasizes team effort - offer help to
