Controlling Production Chaos

Step into a live LEGO production challenge and learn how to keep operations running smoothly under pressure.

Presented by the Texas Manufacturing Assistance Center.

Managing production effectively requires the ability to respond to changing demands, reduce inefficiencies, and maintain consistent workflow. This interactive workshop uses a hands-on LEGO simulation to bring key manufacturing and operational concepts to life.

Participants will take part in a live production process where they will experience how variation, bottlenecks, and scheduling challenges impact performance. The session introduces core principles such as production flow, inventory management, and point-of-sale systems, along with strategies to improve efficiency and reduce disruption.

Through guided simulation and real-time problem solving, attendees will see how small adjustments can create significant improvements in output, organization, and team coordination.

This workshop is ideal for professionals involved in operations, production, or process improvement who want a practical understanding of how to manage workflow and reduce production challenges. Participants will leave with actionable insights they can apply to improve efficiency and control in their own environments.
