rewrite this Using the same material throughout the entire company to wrap the candy in a uniform fashion, Mr. Wanka also has implemented a standard unit of measure for each station in the factory. Every employee should use the same amount of product, decreasing variability. Another change was made when wrapping candy bars- the machines cut the wrapping edge to edge, reducing to less than 3 inches of foil to be thrown out at the end of the day. Having that variability removed means that if the machine breaks down, employees can take over with no hesitation (pivot). Lastly, standardization of processes means having set rules and regulations of how to do any given task minimizes bottlenecking and ensures that the assembly line runs smoothly in any given situation (Cachon and Terwiesch, 2020). Reducing waste produced by 17 inches a day will dramatically reduce the waste produced over time. Also, it takes approximately 5 inches of foil to wrap a Willy Wanka candy bar, meaning that 3 more bars can be produced and sold. As previously mentioned, the relationship between quantity and productivity under lean is directly proportional; as quantity increases, so does productivity
