Customer: ***************** WSC rep: Ed Wawryk Date: April 17, 2001
Revenue impact explanation (A) Annual unit improvement (B) Unit value (C) Increased costs Profit improvement 
(A x B) - C
Increased output of seat tracks 403,200 $4 n/a $1,612,800
Less $300 for vacuums       - $300
Total profit improvement                                                                                 $1,612,500

Notes: Their production line where they assembled the components has 4 cells with 3 people per cell who change the ball bearings for the different style seats twice per shift per cell for a total of 8 changes per shift, 3 shifts per day, 7 days a week, 48 weeks per year.

The old method took 15 minutes per change; the new way with the vacuum takes 2 minutes, therefore saving 13 minutes per change. The downtime represents 25 percent of an hour. This equals 60 pieces less every time they change bearings (they do 240 pieces per hour). So, instead of losing 60 x 24 = 640 pieces, they have increased their production 50 x 24 = 1,200 per day, 8,400 extra pieces per week, 7 days per week, 48 weeks per year totaling 403,200 extra pieces per year. The material cost $8 per track and they sell the track for $12. This has also eliminated some overtime.
