The DuPont Production System

(SLIDE NO. 1) TRACK SLIDE
Hello! I am Kyle Braswell. Ill be talking about DuPonts deployment of
our production system to all of our manufacturing sites. Wendy Morey will
talk specifically about 5S in Maintenance. We have a lot to talk about so we
hope to answer questions at the end of the presentation. If we run out of
time, then we will be available to answer questions at other times during the
conference. We hope to provide you with useful information, and we look
forward to hearing your ideas and success stories as well.

(SLIDE NO. 2) KYLE INTRODUCTION
As you heard in the introduction, I am the leader of the Reliability and
Maintenance Center of Competency at DuPont. We have been very active
in supporting the deployment of DPS because we see it as a tremendous
resource for implementing our best practices.

(SLIDE NO. 3) DPS JOURNEY
DuPont recognizes that implementing a production system is not a
destination but is a journey of continuous improvement that will last many
years. Today, I will explain where DuPont is since this journey began in
2007.

(SLIDE NO. 4) JOURNEY
Well start with who DuPont is today and will answer these questions.
Why we are implementing a DuPont Production System?
What is the DuPont Production System?
How are we implementing across DuPont Integrated Operations?
What is happening in 2010 relative to the DuPont Production System
especially with reference to Maintenance and Reliability?
What have we learned to date?





2010 SMRP Conference Page 4 of 13
(SLIDE NO. 5) CORE VALUES
DuPont was founded on strong core values that remain in place today. The
goal is always zero incidents for safety and health, environmental
stewardship, ethics, and people treatment. We have found that these are not
only the right things to do but that they are also very rewarding.

(SLIDE NO. 6) 1802 2010
In our 208 year history, the company has grown considerably from the
original plant to manufacture explosives. We now have about 55,000
employees at over 200 sites in over 70 countries, with over $26 billion in
sales of hundreds of thousands of products.

(SLIDE NO. 7) VISION
The vision of DuPont is to be the worlds most dynamic science company,
creating sustainable solutions essential to a better, safer, healthier life for
people everywhere.

(SLIDE NO. 8) MISSION
Our mission is sustainable growth. That means the creation of shareholder
and societal value while we reduce the environmental footprint* along the
value chains in which we operate.

(SLIDE NO. 9) SEGMENTS
Our $26 Billion in sales comes from six segments which are Agriculture
and Nutrition, Electronics and Communication, Performance Chemicals,
Performance Coatings, Performance Materials, and last but not least Safety
and Protection.

(SLIDE NO. 10) GEOGRAPHY
We continue to increase our global presence so that the U.S. constitutes only
a little more than a third of our sales now.

(SLIDE NO. 11) OBJECTIVE
We have a clear corporate objective to become a top quartile manufacturer
and we are going to do that by improving faster than our competition.



2010 SMRP Conference Page 5 of 13
(SLIDE NO. 12 ) PRODUCTIVITY GAINS
By the end of 2010 we will accomplish $1.7 billion in cost savings. In
addition we will generate $800 million in value through our supply chains
and functions. And we will reduce our variable cost by $900 million and
our working capital by $1 billion. We will also improve our ability to
sustain our integrated business management process and our production
system process.

(SLIDE NO. 13) CHANGE
From 2005 through 2012, our improvement mix must change away from
traditional, narrowly focused, sources and methods towards aggressive
engagement of all employees.

(SLIDE NO. 14) ROADMAP 1
As I mentioned, DuPont was founded on Core Values and with our unique
technologies, we had to have standard operating procedures. We built on
that foundation with Lean Six Sigma methodology which brought us
continuous improvement, Lean Management, and standard problem solving.
We then added more value by reapplying our best practices such as
codifying and redeploying maintenance and reliability best practices.

(SLIDE NO. 15) ROADMAP 2
We are now taking all of these valuable processes and wrapping them in the
comprehensive envelope of the DuPont Production System. DPS brings
needed leadership development and mindset shifts, along with more
comprehensive engagement of employees, along with additional analysis
tools and techniques.

(SLIDE NO. 16) ROADMAP 3
This will in turn drive us to top quartile performance. The charts on the
right show that by the end of 2011, our plan is to have engaged all of our
sites and over 30,000 employees.






2010 SMRP Conference Page 6 of 13
(SLIDE NO. 17) TRANSFORMATION
The journey to operations excellence is designed as an integrated
transformation approach using these key design principles
1. Get the basics right with a clear, unifying agenda and full
participation
2. Unwavering focus on sustainability and capability building
3. Line led, but centrally managed and tracked
4. Customized improvement plan at the plant level but underpinned by
one DPS
DPS consists of 4 key elements.
1. The Managing Process which focuses on what really matters with the
right people.
2. The Technical Model which provides the right tools and practices to
solve the right problems.
3. The Capabilities Engine which provides the right skills and coaching.
4. And Mindsets and Behaviors which gets people instinctively doing
the right things.
So that our outcomes are fully sustainable and competitive.

(SLIDE NO. 18) DIBM
Operations is an integral part of DuPonts Business System which accounts
for some of the other 25,000 people in DuPont. Our business strategy is
developed with a two to ten year horizon. We perform reviews of our
products and projects to meet the supply and demand expectations. DPS is
designed to give us the competitiveness to meet the required business
outcomes. These results then circle back into the long term strategy
development.

(SLIDE NO. 19) STANDARD SEQUENCE
We have a standard process for implementing DPS at each site with the
same milestones and activities at specific intervals. Within this, standard
process, what gets worked on at each site is somewhat different based on
the heat map which results from the diagnostics.





2010 SMRP Conference Page 7 of 13
(SLIDE NO. 20) M&R ASSESSMENT PHASE PROCESS
The Assessment Phase Process includes a best practice focused assessment
which is led by the M&R Center of Competency. The assessment results in
initial heat map. Other assessments such as Uptime, PM/PdM, Reliability,
high level benchmarks, cost analysis, wrench time, etc are used as guided by
the heat map as deeper dives. We also do studies called Day In Life Of
(DILO).

(SLIDE NO. 21) M&R ASSESSMENT FINDINGS
The Assessment of each site is led by the M&R Center of Competency and
is focused on best practices. Assessments have resulted in similar findings.
Low wrench time (15% - 25%). We have good people, but poor
systems and practices results in wasted time.
Unclear and overlapping roles and responsibilities
Poor development of people at all levels
Reliability engineers focused primarily on day to day activities vs.
reliability improvement
Few documented repair procedures
Little to no engagement of operators in reliability and practical
maintenance
Little leveraging of mechanics within a site or between sites
Problem solving and decision making held at higher levels.
Supervisors do very little coaching of their organization
Materials management issues - no owner for MRO process at site
and little to no kitting by work orders

(SLIDE NO. 22) IMPLEMENTATION PHASE PROCESS
We intentionally focused more broadly organizationally and on
M&B
Our previous implementations have been Work Management
Process focused with little effort on reliability.
Assigned a corporate Maintenance & Reliability Systems
consultant to each deployment
Standard flow-charting of process to analyze and improve the
process
Leadership Line Walks
Coach, Coach, Coach

2010 SMRP Conference Page 8 of 13

(SLIDE NO. 23) IMPLEMENTATION PHASE LEARNINGS
Spending "a day in the life of" each role in the work management
process helps
Must work on WMP and reliability concurrently. We cannot
achieve optimum WMP without good equipment reliability, and
we cannot achieve optimum equipment reliability without good
WMP
Start implementing a transformation (an improvement) as soon as
practical
People can be defensive about previous performance and have
significant ownership for the way things are done. Recognize the
previous good work
Use experiential training to help people experience the desired
change
Start elements of visual management early in implementation
Big Clean Events are a critical part of developing equipment
ownership, starting autonomous maintenance, and improving
equipment reliability
Implementing 5S is an excellent way to get everyone involved
Inevitable resistance can be addressed as everyone wants to be a
winner

(SLIDE NO. 24) ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
Our training has typically been classroom focused with little to no
follow-up
Defined training curriculum for leadership, team leaders, and shop
floor
Train leadership on leadership!, coaching, and dialogue
Train shop floor on problem solving
Use equipment criticality to focus technical training for operators
and mechanics






2010 SMRP Conference Page 9 of 13
(SLIDE NO. 25) ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT LEARNINGS
Lack of real organizational development is a key reason for un-
sustainability of previous efforts
Telling people what to do does not equal training. Must teach
people what to do, how to do, why to do, and the value of doing.
Then need follow-up coaching during day to day activities to
reinforce the training
Every body must be involved in the improvement effort. We
developed a problem solving tool kit to cover all parts of the
organization
Must teach supervisors to be coaches
Must include mindset and behavior elements in organization
development. Use experiential training such as The
Manufacturing Game, SMED exercise, and various lean exercises
to teach organizational mindsets and behaviors

(SLIDE NO. 26) TOP THREE
A very powerful tool that we have used to keep the organization aligned, is
called the top 3 card. The goal is to have every supervisor and mechanic
carrying their top 3 cards to show what top 3 improvements they are
working on for that week.

(SLIDE NO. 27) BENCHMARK LEARNINGS
We have learned these things when benchmarking with Toyota, TXU,
Alcoa, Deere, Caterpillar, and others.
Safety always improves dramatically with full employee engagement
Mindset and Behaviors are key to sustainability
Employee engagement is key to success
Visual management and KPIs in tight integration with Business Unit
critical to driving aligned improvement which everyone Values. What
are your Business Drivers?
A Production System is key to driving the higher rate of Continuous
Improvement
Standardization is Key to Successful Leveraging,
which leads to lowest cost deployment
Many use an Assessment tool to facilitate focus
and Standardization

2010 SMRP Conference Page 10 of 13

(SLIDE NO. 28) TOGETHER
What we do together for DPS Deployment is primarily work on our limiting
Mindsets and Behaviors.
Interrogation vs Exploration
Scarcity vs Abundance
Audit / Presiding vs Assessment / Facilitating
Good is the enemy of great, challenge OURSELVES
Transparency of issues/problems


(SLIDE NO. 29) THANK YOU!
Thank you for your attention as we covered years of work in just a few
minutes. Ill now turn the microphone over to Nick.






5S in Maintenance Shops

(SLIDE 30) Thank you, Nick and Kyle. Youve done an outstanding job of
describing the corporate vision of DPS as well as some of the global
initiatives involved in standardizing the delivery of that vision. Today, Id
like to talk about how one brings that vision to the shop floor.

(SLIDE 31) What Id like to specifically cover is a mechanics view of DPS
implementation and what impact in has on shop life. Ill do that by
presenting a Case Study implementing 5S in our Teflon area Maintenance
Shops.

(SLIDE 32) 5S is considered one of the Foundational Elements of 5S. It is
largely believed that the discipline needed to implement and sustain 5S is
critical to demonstrate before one can succeed in any of the other pillar areas
of DPS.


2010 SMRP Conference Page 11 of 13
(SLIDE 33) 5S is also a simple, easy to understand, hands on, engaging
exercise that allows for rapid improvement. Mechanics can own the process
upgrades, quickly see the results of their efforts and benefit directly from the
improvements. Compared to some other elements of DPS, 5S has a very big
WOW! Factor.

(SLIDE 34) If youre unfamiliar with the basic premise of 5S, here is the
Americanized Ss, as commonly translated from the original Japanese terms.

(SLIDE 35) So we begin our journey in a typical Maintenance Shop. Im
sure many of yours look similar to ours.

(SLIDE 36) While we had gotten quite comfortable in our shops and knew
our way around, they were in all honesty a disaster. Too many of some
parts, not enough of others, and very little thought given to grouping parts
together by type (maybe all the gaskets would like to hang out together?) or
by use (perhaps putting all the specialty parts for the diaphragm compressor
together in the same Vidmar?)

(SLIDE 37) The most important thing we do during implementation is to let
the mechanics own the future state. We help them understand and adhere to
the principles and provide them the time, supplies and resources they need to
get us where we want to go.

(SLIDE 38) The second most important thing is to have strong management
backing. 5S is not a quick hit. While it is not expensive to do or technically
difficult, it takes an enormous amount of time to 5S a shop initially and
continued support to keep it that way.

(SLIDE 39) In contrast, the quickest way to undermine success is to brush
off real concerns with hasty answers. If you are asking mechanics to stop
squirreling away inventory, youd better be willing to spend time ensuring
them that they will still be able to retrieve the parts they need, in a
reasonable amount of time. And yes, it is necessary to do this in painstaking
detail. Not only to discover for yourself why the system you think works,
doesnt, but also so that the system that is straightforward and intuitively
easy to you becomes straightforward and intuitively easy to them as well.

2010 SMRP Conference Page 12 of 13

(SLIDE 40) Here are some of the questions I ask our mechanics when
sorting through inventory. My favorite is Will lack of it shut down
production? While I have never seen a manufacturing line go down due to
a burned out light bulb, I have yet to ever enter a Maintenance Shop that
doesnt have a sizable assortment of fluorescent, incandescent, halogen and
LED replacement bulbs taking up space and money.

(SLIDE 41) During SHINE, we make it easy to keep our work areas neat
and clean. Notice the kick plates installed on the bottom of the lockers and
the hooks added to the wall for raincoats. (Why are the raincoats lying on the
shop tables? They are because no one wants to put a WET raincoat in a
locker with their DRY clothes. Oh!) In the photo on the right, Mark is
adding shelf paper to the break room cupboards to encourage easy cleaning.

(SLIDE 42) Doors are bad. They hide clutter and keep you from seeing
whats inside. Get rid of them or make them see-through whenever you can.

(SLIDE 43) No one wants to count bolts. Notice the green and red tape
level markings. Make it simple to take inventory at a glance.

(SLIDE 44) Once youve minimized your inventory, it is even more critical
to have good replenishment systems. Our mechanics prefer using Kanban
cards.

(SLIDE 45) For Vidmars, where Kanban cards arent practical, we use
replenishment sheets to get needed items ordered.

(SLIDE 46) In order to sustain 5S after the initial event, one tool we use is a
Daily-Weekly-Monthly check-off task sheet. It includes chores such as
sweep the floors and empty the oily rag bin that can be rotated among
the crew.

(SLIDE 47) Other sustainment tools include a monthly scored audit and an
Action Item list that anyone can add items to at any time.


2010 SMRP Conference Page 13 of 13
(SLIDE 48) The results? Talk about the WOW! Factor. This is how the
shop in the first picture we looked at looks every day, day in and day out.
No photo shopping necessary.

(SLIDE 49) Done right, DPS is a way to build pride, engagement and
ownership. Every one, Every day, In the pursuit of Operational
Excellence

(SLIDE 50) Questions? Thank you. Enjoy the rest of the conference.

Maintenance & Reliability Workstream
Assessment Phase
Assessments have resulted in similar findings:
Low wrench time (15% - 25%). Good people, but poor
systems and practices results in wasted time
Unclear and overlapping roles and responsibilities
Poor development of people at all levels
Reliability engineers focused primarily on day to day activities
vs. reliability improvement
Few documented repair procedures
Little to no engagement of operators in reliability and
autonomous maintenance
Little leveraging of mechanics within a site or between sites
Problem solving and decision making held at higher levels.
Supervisors do very little coaching of their organization
Materials management issues - no owner for MRO process at
site and little to no kitting by work order

Maintenance & Reliability Workstream
Implementation Phase
Learnings
Spending "a day in the life of" each role in the work
management process helps
Must work on WMP and reliability concurrently. We cannot
achieve optimum WMP without good equipment reliability, and
we cannot achieve optimum equipment reliability without good
WMP
Start implementing a transformation (an improvement) as soon
as practical
People can be defensive about previous performance and
have significant ownership for the way things are done.
Recognize the previous good work
Use experiential training to help people experience the desired
change
Start elements of visual management early in implementation
Big Clean Events are a critical part of developing equipment
ownership, starting autonomous maintenance, and improving
equipment reliability
Implementing 5S is an excellent way to get everyone involved
Inevitable resistance can be addressed as everyone wants to
be a winner

Maintenance & Reliability Workstream
Organizational Development
Process
Our training has typically been classroom focused with little to no
follow-up
Defined training curriculum for leadership, team leaders, and shop
floor
Train leadership on leadership!, coaching, and dialogue
Train shop floor on problem solving
Use equipment criticality to focus technical training for operators and
mechanics

Maintenance & Reliability Workstream
Organizational Development
Learnings
Lack of real organizational development is a key reason for un-
sustainability of previous efforts
Telling people what to do does not equal training. Must teach
people what to do, how to do, why to do, and the value of doing.
Then need follow-up coaching during day to day activities to
reinforce the training
Every body must be involved in the improvement effort. We
developed a problem solving tool kit to cover all parts of the
organization
Must teach supervisors to be coaches
Must include mindset and behavior elements in organization
development. Use experiential training such as The Manufacturing
Game, SMED exercise, and various lean exercises to teach
organizational mindsets and behaviors
