Hey everyone, welcome to the activity solutions lecture, create continuous process flow, true or false. In this activity, you are given three statements and your job is to identify if those are true or false. I hope you have completed this exercise and added the solutions on the q&a discussion board. Let's review them now. The first statement is taiichi Ohno, the creator of Toyota Production System, noted that the idea of one piece flow or continuous flow is not a reality, true or false? The correct answer is true.

With that owner also said that it takes time and patience to achieve flow. Plus, its implementation involves judicious use of inventory buffers. Number two, you cannot use inventory buffers when implementing continuous flow through or false The answer is false. Inventory buffers are used judiciously, where continuous flow is not possible. Number three, in traditional mass production, there are probably weeks of work in process between operations. And it can take weeks or even months from the time a defect was caused until it is discovered.

By then the trail of cause and effect may get missed, making it nearly impossible to track down and identify why the defect occurred. Is that true or false? Yeah, answer is true. That is where continuous flow helps in identifying the errors at each works. Well. That brings us to the end of this lecture.

Thank you for attending. See you in the next one.
