Work area layout drawings

Looks like simple task management, doesn t it I have observed many area or work cell layout drawings where each section of the work area has someone s name listed. This implies that they are to take ownership of 5S for this section of the work area. Figure 4.1a illustrates this oft used, but ineffective, method. 

At the end of the concept-definition phase, layout drawings that describe the platform in sufficient detail are made available. The EPC contractor performs Coarse analyses of all areas of the platform, i.e. process, utility, drilling and the living quarters. They invite Norskoil s operations personnel to participate in the analyses. The analysis teams concentrate on expected problem areas related to layout, such as manual materials handling, work in open areas, access to equipment, location of noisy equipment, and solitary work. A number of layout changes are introduced as a result of this evaluation.
