Now, once we've done that, you'll see that we've got Type A and then the nine steps for Type A. What I want to do now is I want to actually balance these nine steps against tact time, and using the software makes it very easy. Again, this can be done manually so you don't have to use the software, but this software will streamline things for you. So, I'm actually going to go up to this menu called Lean Analysis, and you'll see there's many things that you can do here, but we're going to focus on Balance Work.
