Bottlenecks limit value streams, extend lead times and thus cause high costs. ADaM24 provides a new approach to bottleneck problems by offering Advanced Data Management over 24 h for individual and organizational learning to eliminate bottlenecks (Langer et al. 2021). The basic principle to this new approach is to determine a standard day by recording it in minute intervals which are averaged over a longer period of time.When ADaM24 is deployed at a company, it reveals six previously undiscovered and characteristic patterns of waste. These are MURA patterns of human-machine interaction, which we call “ProductionCultural Biorhythm” or PCB due to their company-related specificity. Patterns and the expression PCB were first established by Langer et al. (2021) [1] and can be demonstrated across different industries and company sizes. The processes measured at companies show that the maximum possible capacity is actually never used, in particular at bottlenecks. ADaM24’s clear and easy to grasp graphical representations open up new opportunities for learning about how to make desirable behavioral changes. Moreover, it provides managers with new intervention options. Now time slots within 24 h can be selected for optimization projects, during which not only the radicality of an intervention, but also its improvement dynamics and implementation stability can be measured.Overall, the PCB topology offers a wealth of new approaches, such as the integration of AI or even the ability to continuously identify bottlenecks “now and next” in dynamic value streams.
