Theory of Constraints, Critical Chain Project Management, Lean : industry consulting & training - Marris Consulting
Critical Chain is now widely used in aeronautical maintenance (MRO or Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul / Operations). The United States Air Force, the largest fleet of aircraft in the world, is in the process of a global rollout and several airlines have adopted it throughout the world.
In this video we start by presenting the list of the over 30 aeronautical MRO cases worldwide from the USA to Australia and from Brazil to France.
We then discuss why the fact that it is quite easy to calculate the cost of winning or losing a day in the hangar has meant that this industry is leading the world in the adoption of Critical Chain Project Management (CCPM). In this business they know that gaining an extra day in their Turn Around Time is worth often of the order of $100K. They know better than anyone that time is money (or mission critical for military aircraft).
CCPM and its proven results is therefore the obvious solution. We share the lessons learnt these past 20 years. How the starting point is often that there are too many aircraft being worked on simultaneously (not enough focus).
We also mentioned several “common sense” solutions that become even more important when travelling at CCPM speeds such as ensuring that the mechanics always have a “full kit” to do their job (the parts, the tools and the documentation).
