When do we launch Pillars?

Pillars are launched once the site has developed enough experience and needs to move forward with more powerful means to support teams and gain additional tools to attack losses.
To ensure this background the following pre-requisites should be met:
  • The pillar leaders have participated in several teams
  • The pillar members should have participated in at least one team
  • Routes for the specific pillar have been applied in the site
  • Model machines / examples have been established as a learning tool and reference for the future teams to follow
For example one of the biggest challenges of the AM pillar is to manage the restoration of basic conditions particularly the level of cleanliness. Therefore it is vital to have a reference machine; this is known as the model machine. The model machine therefore sets the STANDARD for cleanliness throughout the entire brewery site. This is why the AM Pillar has to own and manage the model machine, allowing them to understand what is involved in maintaining basic conditions
