Project Title: Batch Recovery - Due To Sensor Failure -
Reduction Six Sigma III
Control
Phase:
As a result of all four previous phases, the team
now have all the information required in order to complete the key tasks as
outlined in the Project Charter.
Within the Project Charter, the problem statement
states that there is no procedure in place in order to proceed with production,
the goal statement looks for a way forward in order to continue filling, and
the project scope looks for a process to be put in place to give instructions to
run the filling line in the event of a sensor failure.
In this Control phase, all the information on
the isolator sensors is gathered together and it was left to myself to put it
all together into our companies procedural format. This Standard Work Instruction
would then be put into the Vial filling rooms procedures within its controlling
Standard Operating Procedures.

The above image shows the required details as
required by the vial line operator should sensor number 83B1 fail during
production of a batch. This same information on the tag ID, description, PLC
address, SAP numbers and instructions are outlined for all individual sensors
within the vial isolator.
The only exception to the above is where certain
sensor types could be grouped together in table format as in the isolator doors,
temperature and humidity sensors. These are shown in the following image which
is also taken from the new SWI.

For completeness, and also to ensure that what is
stated in the SWI is fully correct, the team have requested that we book some
additional time on the line in order to redline the SWI before handing over to
operations. This has yet to be scheduled. Once this is complete we can commence
the close out of the project and meet with all stakeholders for final handover.
