� <strong>The</strong> Utility Steward’s main tasks were to sweep and mop<br />
the different kitchens and to replenish the chemicals and<br />
paper towels in different back-of-house areas of the hotel.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Stewards at the different outlets were underutilized<br />
and had over 50% travel time.<br />
� WORK REALLOCATION: By reassigning the sweeping<br />
and mopping of the kitchens to the outlet Stewards waste<br />
was reduced and unnecessary travel was eliminated.<br />

OVERPRODUCTION REDUCED THROUGH THE<br />
REMOVAL OF UNNECESSARY PROCESS STEPS<br />
� OVERPRODUCTION: Due to a combination of<br />
scheduling too many people and the ingrained habits of a<br />
workforce accustomed to an older dish-machine that<br />
required all plates to be rinsed excessively.<br />
