Volume G, Chapter 83, Avoidance

In any factory, any management work is a combination of humanities and science, or any management activity involves people and things. [, the management of things, to be precise, the modern management theory of treating people as things began with Taylor's scientific management. The action analysis, work quota system, and standardized operations advocated are all the development results of scientific management of things. It can be said that without Taylor system, there would be no Ford assembly line;

The research on management of treating people as humans started with the Hawthorne experiment, which was thirteen years later than the book Science Management. However, Professor Mayo, who was in charge of the experiment at the time, turned aside from the beginning, thinking that increasing lighting could improve workers' productivity, but he gained nothing. Only after starting the conversation experiment, he found that as long as he could listen to workers vent for an hour or two in each conversation, the productivity would be greatly improved. At this point, the humanistic factors in management were simply outlined and valued.

In Yang Rui's view, humanities and science are just theoretical summary of the essence of management work. In actual factory management, he believes that there are two types of management that must be added: one is 5s on-site management. A good management environment must be created in management. Without this good environment, other management work will be difficult to carry out. And the most important thing is to develop habits and form qualities in the minds of workers;

The second is quality management. If you don’t pay attention to quality, production efficiency is completely different. It is because quality management personnel are the soul of the factory to play a positive effect. However, relying solely on quality management personnel to plan, execute, inspect and correct this model is not enough. The real solution is to establish a Q quality management circle and incorporate all production technicians into the quality management system, so that the workers in the team chat no longer argue about who has the whitest thighs in the kiln and whose voices are the most roars. Instead, they gather together to discuss solving quality and efficiency issues, and they are getting higher and higher. This is the most perfect quality management.

In history, Americans invented PDA, but the Japanese invented Q on this basis. This laid the groundwork for American companies' failure in the 1980s and also laid the groundwork for the later deindustrialization of the United States. When Americans bowed their heads to study Japanese management in the 1980s, they found that the lack of management humanistic factors they have always overlooked was the culprit of such a situation. Q can exert human initiative and make every employee become quality managers, and they participate in it and understand the importance of the entire production process from the beginning to the finished product to the quality of the final product.

Live from a different perspective, from a philosophical perspective, q is approaching cellular production, and semi-rescuing people from the 'alien labor' mentioned in the 1844 economic philosophical manuscript of Max, making them understand the meaning of essential labor; if employee shareholding and cellular production are combined, then every worker will be the boss, and they produce complete products instead of broken parts that are not used, and work will become their essential labor.

The application of science and humanities in management lies in the managers themselves, while on-site management and quality management must mobilize all employees. Originally, Yang Rui believed that the quality circle was difficult to establish, but the reason why the Japanese could produce something that Americans could not produce was due to the Oriental culture itself. Therefore, the quality management that was originally thought difficult to implement was implemented in all state-owned companies in less than a few years, and through the improvement of the reward mechanism, it has penetrated into the hearts of workers.

However, there are problems with how to promote the on-site management. Often, it can be done well when it is implemented. After one or two years, all workers, even managers, are very relaxed in the on-site management, so the dust in the production workshop, the dirty oil and waste on the machine, the cockroaches and spiders in the canteen, the back of the house, and even the feces under the grass-reviewed trees... These things that should not have appeared again in the factory.

If you have to rectify it once, you will be lazy after one or two years, and you will be lazy after two or three years. Workers and managers cannot understand the importance of on-site management. They think that after one day's work, they will be tired, and today's cleaning will still be messy tomorrow. This is the case for factories and capital cities. They spend a lot of money to renovate sewers, roads, and houses in the city. However, most of the residents' cleaning is appropriate. Many people feel anxious and find a place to solve it, even if the public toilet is close to them.

The local area can be solved through fines, but the entire on-site management cannot be achieved through fines. Therefore, the final result is to add strict and neat requirements to the daily management regulations of the school, especially the daily management regulations of primary school students. Later, Yang Rui, who was still not enough, also forced the content of 5s on-site management in the student courses. Similarly, the new rural construction plan proposed by the Ministry of Agriculture also required 5s on-site management to add 5s on-site management. Of course, this is completely mandatory and is closely related to the annual agricultural loans, fertilizer indicators, and even agricultural product purchases.

Everything is to develop a high-efficiency national character. Yang Rui thought so on the way to the toilet of Dagu Shipyard, and the officials following him looked different. The strangest thing is Zhao Bingjun, the governor of Zhili. He has heard that the Prime Minister has strict requirements on hygiene, but he cannot imagine that the Prime Minister will go to the Five Grain Reincarnation Inspection in person.

He muttered so much that Yang Rui didn't go into the toilet at all. He just walked to the wall next to the toilet and said to Wu Yulin who was following: "Go and find a ladder."

"Ah!" Wu Yulin was shocked. Behind the toilet was outside the shipyard. The filthy things flowed into the sea and river from the ditches outside. If they really found a ladder, the scene would definitely be terrible. However, the Prime Minister told him not to refuse to do it, so he asked someone to find a ladder in a while, and then followed the Prime Minister across the wall in sweat in the cold weather, looking at the filthy and anxious behind the toilet.

"I remember that according to the management manual, there is a management scope within one kilometer near the factory." Yang Rui said lightly.

The Prime Minister said lightly, but Wu Yulin was frightened and he couldn't speak and kept nodding.

"Where does the water drunk in the factory come from?" Yang Rui asked lightly.

"From... from," Wu Yulin couldn't lift it up in one breath, and took a deep breath and said, "Go back to the Prime Minister, yes, from the well..." Wu Yulin wanted to die at this time, and he didn't know if he didn't look at it. Now he saw such a scene. When he thought about the water he drank every day, he might seep the filth infiltrated, and he suddenly felt his throat itchy.

"I can't buy good habits! I would rather make less money than build habits for the sake of making money." Yang Rui said lightly again. However, the voice of this was louder, as if not only said to Wu Yulin, but to everyone present.

Now the standard ships produced by the shipyard have 27,854 parts, and the calculation and statistics personnel of this hundred people can fully implement effective management of them. The sixty statisticians at the bottom will have inventory every day. They will send orders to suppliers through the procurement department to stipulate that they will ship parts to the factory at the exact time to meet the production rhythm...

In addition to orders occurring outside, the component managers on the second floor will supervise and control the production plans of each workshop so that the production progress of the components in each workshop will meet the entire main production plan. If there is a problem with the production of the workshop, they will negotiate with others at the same level and feedback information upward and downward for final coordination."

"Does this computing tower control the entire production plan now by Dagu Shipyard?" Yang Rui looked at the so-called computing tower carefully and always felt something was wrong.

"Prime Minister, there is no one yet. Now it is just simulated production." Chen Shiying said: "After several years, the domestic industrial parts industry department has completed coding. But coding is only the most basic step to achieve scientific management. We also need to rectify the entire logistics system so that it can be transported on time and in a timely manner, and then it is the information transmission system..."

Chen Shiying said this and looked at Yan Deqing, the Minister of the Ministry of Transportation, and said: "Now the Ministry of Transportation is planning to lay a national telephone network. The Ministry of Industry recommends laying a dedicated industrial information network to connect various industrial cities, industrial parks, factories and mines. In this way, production, ordering, logistics and other information can be transmitted to each factory through a wired network, and ultimately realize information management of all factories and mines across the country. Logistics are accurate and information is smooth, and then the calculation towers are established here in factories across the country, so that the entire industrial production can achieve accuracy and efficiency."

Unexpectedly, what the Ministry of Industry is looking at is not a factory at all. Instead, it wants to promote this model nationwide. If this is done, the factories across the country will become a whole, and through part coding and grouping technology, as long as they have received formal training, factories and workshops with processing tools can produce the parts or products needed by the Ministry of Industry, which is crucial in war.

"There is one problem." Yang Rui imagined the whole scene in his mind, but did not intoxicate it, but immediately thought of the defects. "If this is a supplier, then the third floor, that is, the main plan for the factory production, should his upper floor be the bottom floor of another factory, right?"

"Yes. Prime Minister." Chen Shiying said. He understood Yang Rui's meaning. The main production plan was based on the order. After they accepted the order, they could split the order according to the bill of materials. The required parts were passed down, and the middle layer was also based on the bill of materials. Then the parts were divided into parts and passed down. Imagine the shipyard as a supplier, and then his order was sent from the bottom layer of the main manufacturer.

"The uppermost floor is closely related to the bottom of another factory. This is not wrong, but the middle floor and the lower floor are not right." Yang Rui said. "According to the principle that the middle floor should be counting production figures in each workshop and supervising the progress; while the lower floor should be in each warehouse, responsible for collecting materials and regularly counting inventory, but now we are sitting here..."

It doesn’t matter where you sit on the upper floor, but the workshop statisticians are no longer in the workshop, and the bottom warehouse statisticians are not in the warehouse, which is indeed outrageous. However, Yang Rui pointed out the flaws and said: "I think your difficulties in designing this way, aren’t you going to use glass towers to gather these people together, and are worried that the information between them cannot be read instantly?"

"That's true." Chen Shiying smiled. He was very happy that this approach could be understood by Yang Rui. "There are too many parts of the ship, with more than 20,000 standard ships and more than 30,000 normal merchant ships. If these people gather together, the file transfer speed will be very fast. If it is scattered in the workshop, then you can only contact by phone, but it is not convenient to see the entire statistical chart clearly on the phone, so it is better to concentrate together.

Two hours before get off work every day, data will be collected from the warehouse and workshop to the bottom and middle levels. After they are summarized, they will be sent into written forms to the places where they should go through wired faxes. In order to ensure that these faxes can be transmitted to all parts of the country, a dedicated industrial information network is needed."

"Fax?" Yang Rui was a little confused, but at this time Xu Huafeng whispered in his ear, and he stopped talking. A company under the Ministry of Industry had purchased the fax patent of French Edward Belan.

Chen Shiying, the introduction to human flesh computer, did not hear what Xu Huafeng said to Yang Rui. He explained: "Our research has found that only images will not cause errors during long-distance transmission, and image fax is faster than Moss code telegrams. In addition, we are worried that people will make mistakes. Now the bottom and middle layers are actually two groups of irrelevant statistics personnel. Their numbers must be summarized and checked correctly before they will be sent out..."

"Do you need to use a toner cartridge for the fax machine?" Yang Rui couldn't help but ask a question.

"This... isn't it." Xu Huafeng said the average person. "I'll go back and check it."

After Xu Huafeng said that, Yang Rui nodded and looked at the glass tower in the middle of the room again. He said surely: "This is already very good!"

As soon as he said that, the people around him began to applaud. Zhao Bingjun, who didn't understand what this thing was, also agreed. Although he didn't know what it could do, at least it appeared in the factory under his rule, which was his political achievements.

But Yang Rui didn't finish his words. He said: "The original factory production instructions were completed through the promulgation board of the on-time production system. Although there are many problems with the on-time production system, they are closely related to the requirements of our implementation of comprehensive quality management, production line layout, tooling selection, employee training, supplier site selection, etc.

If the material demand planning is a driving force, that is, the main production plan is to achieve "accurate materials at the most accurate time and the most accurate place"; then the on-time production plan is a pull-in, that is, the required parts are sent to the production line only in the required quantity and at the required time through the board between the workshop and the workshop. The "accurate" of the former is because the instructions are issued by non-site personnel, so there is error and inventory is needed to make up for the defects; while the latter is the connection between the workshop and the workshop, so there is no error at all, and zero inventory can be achieved.

But it is not that the material demand plan has no advantages. Taking shipbuilding projects as an example, in terms of laying out steel plants, adding docks, training personnel, etc., the Ministry of Industry adopts a extensive material demand plan. Without the issuance of instructions from the Ministry of Industry, so many shipyards cannot be built in a short time. Therefore, I suggest that these two production management systems be integrated and used. In terms of specific factory layout and management, the on-time production method should be mainly used, and the following points should be paid attention to:

First, suppliers and logistics must be nearby and convenient, rather than selecting suppliers nationwide; second, industrial equipment is mainly universal or compatible, with professional tooling as supplemented, and more explicitly, tooling will be purchased from Europe rather than the United States; third, production line layout will adopt U-type, rather than i-type or L-type, which is a layout where countless small water systems gather large rivers, not a layout where Ford production line runs to the end; fourth, focus on participation of all employees and implement comprehensive quality management instead of relying solely on quality management personnel.”

The factory management model was chosen by Yang Rui himself. He chose Japanese rather than American. The basis for consideration is that in terms of culture, the lifelong employment system is more suitable for the current China. After more than ten years of practice, it can be determined that this choice is correct. Now that American mrp is suddenly implemented in Japanese management, then mrp can only be used as a supplement to the t, rather than subversion.

After he said this, Yu Ren wanted to applaud again, but was rejected by Yang Rui. No matter what, it is worthy of praise to be able to make such an exquisite human-like computer. He smiled with a rare smile: "The person who came up with this glass tower should be commended."

"It was when a manager of the diesel engine factory worshipped Buddha, and he thought of the Buddha statues on the pagoda." Xu Huafeng said with a smile, feeling very amazing. "This person has been rewarded. I am now like building a four-layer and five-layer glass tower, so that I can put it in the Works Department."

"Let's just submit a report." Yang Rui was already walking out under the leadership of Wu Yulin and Chen Shiying. "Including the logistics and information system construction mentioned just now, these must be coordinated with the transportation department. In addition, since there is a glass tower, the manufacturing resource plan can be designed according to this model."

The material needs to be planned only involves inventory, but its upgraded manufacturing resource plan is to integrate sales, finance, logistics, and human resources into it. Hearing Yang Rui's request, Xu Huafeng smiled and said, "Are you not afraid of the tower building collapsed too high?"

"You have to give it a try." Yang Rui understood what the manufacturing resource plan represents, which is a comprehensive wartime production plan. At this time, he was only thinking about the terrifying production capacity of the United States. Although the government only claimed to revitalize agriculture, as China exports more and more advantageous industrial products, the American Wall Street people who are the most powerful and maritime people who are like Mahan will eventually unite to hostile to China.
