VA/NVA/SVA Analysis

After you have added a task to the Observed Time Task table, you can define the breakdown of value-added, non value-added, and semi value-added time for each task.

You have two options to do this:

1. You can enter a value directly in the VA/NVA/SVA cells for each task. (To change the preference for using time or percentage values, go to Tools>Options>Time Estimation Tab>Then check or uncheck "Use Percent for VA/NVA/SVA".)

2. To assign specific classifications, either double click on any cell in the VA/NVA/SVA columns for a particular task in the Tasks list or right-click in the task row and select View Time Classification Data. If an observation has been made, the total time will be displayed, and you can type in the time of the task for one or more LEAN categories in the Time column on the right, making sure the total times added sum to the time of the clip. You can watch the video clip for that task as you do so. If you click Record and then play the video, double clicking on a cell in the Detail column records the recorded section to the Detail clicked on. The categories and details will appear as they have been set in the Edit MUDA Classifications menu within Tools>Options>Time Estimation Tab.
