Abstract [sv]

Den här kandidatuppsatsen har genomförts ute på Volvo Car’s provbana Hällered Proving Grounds, uppsatsen har som utgångspunkt att studera ett teams aktiviteter och identifiera flaskhalsar. Av resultaten ska författarna komma med återkoppling på förbättringsarbeten för teamet.

Metoden för studien har varit en direktanalys där teamets aktiviteter har observerats när de utförts på plats. Eftersom teamet inte arbetar med en traditionell typ av produktflöde har en kombination av tidsstudie och värdeflödesanalys arbetats fram med hjälp av ansvariga inom teamet.

Den totalt observerade tiden bestod av ca 20 arbetsdagar. Av den totala observerade tiden bestod ca 25% av värdeskapande aktiviteter. Ca 28% av icke värdeskapande men nödvändiga aktiviteter orsakat av HPG-teamet. Ca 22% icke värdeskapande aktiviteter orsakat av HPG-teamet. Samt ca 24% icke värdeskapande aktiviteter orsakat av provbeställare. Tiden för nödvändiga men icke värdeskapande aktiviteter orsakat av provbeställaren var nästintill oväsentlig. Den mest utstickande flaskhalsen som anträffades gemensamt mellan HPG-teamet och provbeställaren var problemen med den tekniska utrustningen.

Slutsatsen av examensarbetet är att det finns många förbättringsområden att jobba med. De området som ger möjlighet till tydligast förbättring är det förbyggande underhållsarbetet som krävs för att den tekniska utrustningen inte ska agera som en flaskhals i flödet.

Abstract [en]

This bachelor’s thesis has been carried out on Volvo Car's test track Hällered Proving Grounds. The thesis is based on studying a team's activities and identifying bottlenecks. From the results, the authors will provide feedback on improvement work for the team.

The method of the study has been a direct analysis where the team's activities have been observed when carried out on site. As the team does not work with a traditional type of product flow, a combination of time study and value flow analysis has been developed with the help of the team leaders.

The total observed time consisted of about 20 working days. Of the total observed time, approximately 25% consisted of value-added activities. About 28% of non-value-added but necessary activities caused by the HPG team. About 22% non-value-added activities caused by the HPG team. As well as about 24% non-value-added activities caused by sample commissioners. The time required for necessary but non-value-added activities by the sample client was almost immaterial. The most protruding bottleneck that was found in common between the HPG team and the test taker was the problems with the technical equipment.

The conclusion of the thesis is that there are many areas for improvement to work with. The areas that provide the opportunity for clearest improvement are the preventive maintenance work required for the technical equipment not to act as a bottleneck in the flow.
