1/ @lopezlinette, nice article. This is not surprising to me or other industry veterans. I have one rebuttal; FPY is not 14%, it is probably closer to 0%.

How did we get here? Remember this mess?:
@lopezlinette 2/ In order to meet their 5k/week commitment, Tesla put untrained interns and employee’s on the line and lowered and probably lowered their quality standards.

@lopezlinette 3/ There was no amount of QC inspection that could’ve prevented quality escapes. Actually, Tesla probably lowered their quality standards to ship more product. In industry terms, they basically “shipped shit.” Multiple twitter threads and in the forums claiming poor quality.

$TSLA $TSLAQ #OpsMgmt101 Thanks for sharing.
1/ The good: Clean factory floor which is good.
The bad: Any lean or 5S is practice is very weak/poor. In good 5S it is a very "visual" factory. There is no color coding on floor or around racks to signify the state of WIP.
2/ They use a lot of red bins which goes against conventional visual systems. Red is usually meant for scrap/quarantined material.
3/ Inefficient use of boxes: There is a lot of use of flow through racks with boxes and not kitted materials. Which is a huge waste (excess material) and poor efficiency. This requires operators to open boxes, grab material out of their protective sleeves, then do assembly.
