He explains the basic mechanisms of the Toyota production system, examines production as a functional network of processes and operations, and then discusses the mechanism necessary to make JIT possible in any manufacturing plant.Provides original source material on Just-ln-TimeDemonstrates new ways to think about profit, inventory, waste, and productivityExplains the principles of leveling, standard work procedures, multi-machine handling, supplier relations, and much moreIf you are a serious student of manufacturing, you will benefit greatly from reading this primary resource on the powerful fundamentals of JIT.
