SPECIAL JOINT MEETING WITH ASQ Join us for a presentation by Steve Young on BI Inc process of transforming its business processes from Batch Processing to Lean Methodologies.
Please register by noon Friday, February 5th. Register by responding to your e-mail invitation

Speaker and Topic: “Transforming to Lean”
SPEAKER: Steve Young LOCATION: Boulderado Hotel
“Why does the Lean literature say batch-and-queue is bad? It all boils down to this: If something is waiting because it is part of a batch process, it is not flowing down the line to the next operation. Short lead times are beneficial in manufacturing for many reasons. Errors surface faster, work flow can be made smoother and more predictable, work-in-process (WIP) inventories can be reduced, and best of all, customers get their orders filled faster.” (Kenneth Thierot, www.isixsigma.com).” Steve Young is a Master Scheduler at BI Inc. He has been a member of APICS since 1999. He attained his CPIM in 2005 and his CSCP in 2008. Steve is a true example of starting at the bottom and working your way to the top. Steve started at BI Inc as a Manufacturing Assembler and progressed through Receiving Clerk, Stockroom Clerk, Inventory Specialist, Production Planner, Materials Supervisor, and finally to Master Scheduler. Steve attained a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Business while working
two jobs to support his family. This is a joint Professional Development Meeting with ASQ ASQ (American Society for Quality) is a global community of people dedicated to quality who share the ideas and tools that make our world work better. With individual and organizational members around the world, ASQ has the reputation and reach to bring together the diverse quality champions who are transforming the world’s corporations, organizations and communities to meet tomorrow’s critical challenges.
Paid Valet Parking Just tell the Valet you are here for the “APICS
PDM” and you will not pay for the service. If you don’t the valet will charge you.
REGISTER NOW! http://apicscolorado.org/meetinginfo.php
Steve will discuss the human aspect of change management methodologies, production gains, the roadblocks he encountered and the gains in quality he saw in BI’s process and by the end of the transformation.

APICS Colorado awards $100 to each new CSCP and CPIM recipient. This month we passed out four crisp $100 bills. John Wood and Bob Bartusiak earned their CSCPs and Mike Kingzett earned both his CSCP and CPIM.
Congratulations on your achievements!
Well, January 2016 is already behind us. We finished up the Fall 2015 CPIM courses and we are ready to start the 2016 courses for CPIM and CSCP. You can see the schedules in this newsletter for specific locations and start dates. We still have some room in the classes for both programs, if you are interested in taking the courses, please register ASAP so we can get the books on order. Our public classes in 2015 were primarily instructed at DirecTV (now AT&T) in Englewood and at Hunter Douglas in Broomfield. I want to thank both of these companies for donating their wonderful training rooms to APICS on the weekends for our classes. These type of donations, not only gives us a great place to hold our classes but helps keep the cost of the courses down as well.
THANK YOU DirecTV and Hunter Douglas!

“APICS has been offering classes at WhiteWave’s headquarters, which has been truly beneficial for our company. We recently completed the five CPIM courses, and had people from all areas of the supply chain enrolled. In a fast-paced, evolving field like Operations and Supply Chain, it’s important to stay informed with new practices and ideas. APICS allows busy professionals to gain important knowledge and skills while only committing a couple hours a week at class. It’s all possible because of the dedicated instructors that make learning easy with their passion to teach and real-world expertise.” Ben Osenbaugh, Fluid Transportation Logistics Specialist, WhiteWave Foods Company

What are Students saying about APICS Education in Colorado?
“Throughout my career I have learned anything you can do to set yourself apart from the competition is a great advantage which is why I initially took the APICS classes to pass the CPIM certification tests. By the end of the classes I realized that there were so many other areas of supply chain that I learned about and I am grateful for my expanded knowledge that I can apply in my work. Since getting my CPIM certification I have since been approached about a great promotion that will help take me to the next level in my career.” Heather Kniker, CPIM, AT&T Supply Chain Manager
“After recently obtaining my CPIM certification through the completion of all the APICS requirements, I can honestly
say it has greatly broadened my understanding and capacity to function at not only the tactical level, but also the strategic level within
the Supply Chain Management organization. The information and insight provided by the APICS instructors through the learning
material is truly invaluable in today’s complex, global realm of business.” - Brett Horacek, CPIM, CSCP, Supply Chain
Management, Hospira, Inc.
”I am a supply chain professional with nearly 20 years of experience, and I decided to take the CSCP exam to affirm my
knowledge and identify any gaps. I highly recommend the CSCP course as an effective and efficient method to prepare for the exam.
I took the exam within two weeks of the last class and passed with confidence. The classroom format works very well with five
Saturdays spread over a few months allowing for time between classes to catch up on reading. All of the instructors were more than
willing to share their personal experience and answer any questions about the content. The interaction and examples from fellow
classmates from different industries kept it interesting and real. Also, the variety of instructors, each with solid supply chain
experience, was a bonus. Based on my class experience, I've recently enrolled in the CPIM course.” Mike Kingzett, PMP, SCOR-
P, CSCP, CPIM, Global Manager Supply Operational Excellence, Orica Limited
”I recently was able to complete my CPIM certification and the education classes were instrumental in my success. I
took the first test without class and had to study 3 times more than I needed on any of the other courses. The interaction during the
classes with the instructor and other students help me remember items better and have a good sense of how things happen in the real
world and not just in the text books. The instructors that I had were very knowledgeable and able to answer any questions. The
instructors were also very receptive to helping outside of class. I don't think I would have been able to complete the entire certification
in 5 months without the classes and help from the instructors.” Michael Atwell , CPIM, Manager of Business Operations, Arrow
Electronics
“APICS classes have helped my critical thinking in assessing inventory liabilities. It has also allowed me to be a better gatekeeper of inventory management for Avaya. We have already begun to see the benefits.” Maria Martinez, Supply Chain Analyst, Avaya:

Manufacturing solutions that aren't one-dimensional. By embracing the most advanced manufacturing technologies of today, tomorrow, and beyond, they avoid stagnation and maintain the ability to constantly provide their partners with the "Right Fit" solution. At the same time, they provide our teammates with an environment that inspires personal growth and endless opportunity. Amorphous Casting Amorphous Alloy Injection Molding, also known as amorphous metal casting, is capable of manufacturing complex geometries in large quantities using multi-cavitation tooling. This process uses a Zirconium based alloy manufactured here in the United States by the global leader in advanced materials, Materion. Precision Machining They specialize in manufacturing unique parts with superior strategy. Using cutting edge techniques, parts are manufactured for a wide variety of industries, ranging from injection molds to mission critical aerospace components. Additive Manufacturing Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is a manufacturing technology that uses a fiber optic laser to fuse together layers of metal powder. The parts are "grown" additively, layer by layer, to create fully dense, complex parts within hours directly from 3D CAD geometry. It is possible to manufacture durable, fully functional prototypes and production parts for highly corrosive and high-temperature environments. Material properties of as-grown parts are similar to wrought materials and can be improved or altered with various heat treatments.
