Nice post. Since an operation at the Gemba (e.g., final assembling) is very impressive, many people seem to focus on the Gema operation only. But the improvement(s) consists of 1) Understanding the full operation (including the preparation and after the operation), 2) Clarifying the purpose of the improvement and setting the goal (often tentative), 3) Establishing "How to" (usually continue to the next improvement) with related persons, 4) Preparing the training program (and the review of the program, and update, if necessary), 5) Watching the operation after the improvement, 6) Removing the Muria, Muda, and Mura, 7) Finally Using P-D-C-A for next improvement, etc. Of course, report the status to the upper management. As such, the "Analysis" is useful for everyone, I think. Thank you, Bob.

It's amazing the level of Team Working and of course the trainning for arrive on that. I just worried because some process trainning show that as a real comparation with any process. And I don't think that are on that way, if we don't understand your real process and stay in Gemba during the real process it's just another beautifully presentation for a Trainning section as an excelente example.

Variability "V" is extremely low and Resource Efficiency RE (%) is also very low = High Flow Efficiency FE (%).

“It’s no good if the strategist is calculating for a 2.4-second pit stop and you make a mistake and the car leaves in four seconds. Then your race is over.”... wow.. always used the image of Pit Stop for SW training sessions. Amazing Team Work.
