Key Insights & Actions

QA Check is primary constraint
Queue depth 2.3× higher than other stages; 67% efficiency vs 88% target
P90 cycle time reduced 29.8%
Improvement stalled at week 4; need QA staffing or process redesign to continue gains
Handoff latency CNC→QA at 34.1 min
4× longer than other handoffs; implement push notification or WIP slots
