Study
Single-line bottleneck observation
One or two shifts beside a named line when the constraint is already suspected but not timed.
Who it is for
Supervisors who know a line ‘feels slow’ after a SKU change or a new fixture.
What you take away
Timed notes and a simple loss chart for that line on the observed shifts.
Scope
One line, one or two consecutive shifts, including a changeover if one falls in the window.
Included
- Arrival briefing with the shift lead
- Timed counts at the suspected constraint
- A one-page visual summary left with the factory manager
Not included
- Whole-hall studies
- Covering every SKU in the range
Who attends
One Content Crafthub observer.
How it runs
Agree the line and shifts, attend, hand over the page, optional short follow-up call.
Time
One or two shifts on site, plus a half day to draw the page.
Where
Your plant.
What to prepare
Standard running, not a special demo lot unless you say otherwise.
Limits
PPE and induction as your site requires. We will not stand in gangways that block egress.
Fees
Day rate plus travel. See the fees page for day rates and starting figures.
