RE: lean topic
An example of a paint system. I recently toured a company where the paint system was located in a different building away from where the parts were manufactured and assembled. Additional time would be required just to transport the product but you also lose the quality tie between processes. Say a part is dropped and damaged at the paint system, is that communicated back to the supplying system to remake or repair the part. If the paint system is working at close to maximum capacity there would be challenges on which product to work on next.
Each operation implementing lean must review this sharing of resources and plan for the challenges.
