ChinaThe two Engineering Technology courses taught in China were IET-308 ProductionManagement Methods and IET-415 Management of Technical Organizations. The ProductionManagement Methods course includes Lean Manufacturing concepts, Just-In-Time, Kaizen,small lot production, setup time reduction, total productive maintenance, pull production,focused factories, standard operations, and defect-free manufacturing. The IET-415Management of Technical Organizations course was described previously.Before leaving on the trip, each student was given a subject to research using the Internet,library, magazine/journal articles, etc., and make a presentation on while in China.

This tool is key to identifying waste, reducing process cycle times, andidentifying opportunities for improvement based on customer needs. The VSM is usually doneby a team with different functions in the process and it has its own eight steps from forming theteam to having a draft of a future VSM that meets the customer’s needs.It is important to notice that the VSM is not going back to Phase 2 of the V-diagram model toreview the decomposition of systems into subsystems and components.
