Process Description D M A I C
▪ The process described in this presentation is the packaging of filled nasal spray bottles used for treating
nasal allergies.
▪ Packaging of a nasal spray bottle includes packaging components such as labels, individual cartons, and a
shipper box. And in addition, an automated inspection process is integrated to the critical stations to ensure
each and every bottle processed meets specifications.
▪ At the end of the process, where the shipper level packaging takes place, a serialization process occurs for
product traceability after which the completed shipper boxes are stacked into a skid and then shipped to the
warehouse.
Lean Six Sigma
▪ The process prior to the packaging is called the filling process which is also the supplier of the filled bottles.
This operation is responsible for processing the bulk compound of the nasal spray and dispenses it to the
individual bottles.
▪ On the line are trained operators who operates the equipment and performs tasks to successfully process the
inputs into outputs. Quality technicians performs inspections at predetermined intervals to capture and
ensure that the products produced is adhering to the specifications. Mechanics ensure that the equipment is
running smoothly and performing as intended and also troubleshoots equipment issues on the line.
▪ The KPI’s for the packaging process is the ability to process each and every bottle efficiently and without
defect or rework, meet or exceed target cycle time, eliminating non-value-added tasks while improving the
value-added ones, all while maintaining quality standards.
